Refund Policy

This refund policy explains how MAVLINX reviews refund eligibility based on accepted scope, payment stage, work completed, reserved delivery capacity, third-party costs, platform fees, client delays, and project records.

MAVLINX provides implementation and business-system installation services. Refund decisions are therefore reviewed differently from e-commerce returns or physical-product refunds.

MAVLINX Refund Policy explains how refund eligibility is reviewed against scope, payment stage, work completed, and third-party costs.

Policy Scope

Scope of this Refund Policy

This policy applies to MAVLINX service requests, proposals, invoices, advance payments, milestone payments, retainers, website installations, CRM setup, automation systems, AI-assisted workflows, SEO classification work, paid lead capture systems, dashboards, and custom operational systems.

Service work, not physical goods

MAVLINX refund review is based on implementation work, project stage, time, planning, configuration, delivery capacity, and purchased third-party resources.

Proposal terms control

If a signed proposal, accepted invoice, or written scope includes specific refund terms, those written terms control the project-specific refund review.

Legal review note

This operational policy should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel for jurisdiction-specific consumer, contract, tax, and refund law requirements.

Fair review principle

MAVLINX aims to review refund requests fairly, but refunds are not automatic. Eligibility depends on scope acceptance, work performed, costs incurred, reserved delivery capacity, platform fees, and the reason for cancellation.

Core Principles

Core refund principles

MAVLINX refund logic is built around four questions: what was accepted, what was paid, what work was done, and what costs cannot be recovered.

01

Refunds are stage-based

Refund eligibility reduces as work moves from inquiry to proposal acceptance, planning, setup, configuration, testing, review, handover, or support.

02

Completed work is chargeable

Strategy, diagnosis, mapping, design, configuration, content work, automation logic, dashboard setup, SEO structure, ads setup, or technical work already completed may be deducted.

03

Third-party costs are usually non-refundable

Domain, hosting, plugins, themes, APIs, platform subscriptions, ad spend, AI tools, stock media, payment charges, bank fees, taxes, and integration costs may not be recoverable.

04

Client delay does not automatically create refund eligibility

Missing content, delayed approvals, missing access, changed requirements, internal client delays, or non-cooperation may affect delivery without creating automatic refund rights.

Possible Refund Cases

When a refund may be considered

Refunds may be reviewed when the request is made early, when MAVLINX has not started substantial work, or when project-specific written terms allow review.

Before work starts

If payment was made but no meaningful planning, setup, purchase, configuration, reserved work, or delivery activity has started, refund review may be possible.

Duplicate or mistaken payment

If a duplicate payment or clear payment error is verified, MAVLINX may review reversal or refund after payment gateway, bank, and fee deductions.

Written proposal terms

If an accepted proposal includes specific cancellation or refund conditions, those conditions guide the review.

Partial refund possibility

A partial refund may be considered after deducting work completed, reserved capacity, non-refundable costs, taxes, fees, and third-party charges.

Service credit option

In some cases, MAVLINX may offer project credit, scope adjustment, or continuation route instead of cash refund.

Dispute review

If there is disagreement, MAVLINX may review proposal scope, invoices, delivery logs, communication records, completed work, and client-side delays.

Non-Refundable Items

Non-refundable items and costs

Some costs are incurred immediately or paid to third parties. These are usually not refundable once purchased, activated, used, transferred, reserved, or committed.

3P

Third-party purchases

Domain names, hosting, themes, plugins, paid APIs, AI subscriptions, stock media, email tools, SMS credits, WhatsApp API costs, and external integrations.

ADS

Ad spend and platform costs

Meta Ads, Google Ads, platform spend, campaign credits, paid tools, and charges paid directly to platforms are not controlled by MAVLINX refund decisions.

FEE

Bank, card, Payoneer, tax, and payment fees

Bank charges, card fees, Payoneer/platform fees, currency conversion differences, withholding tax, VAT/GST/sales tax, and government charges may be non-refundable.

WRK

Completed work and reserved capacity

Diagnosis, consulting, strategy, project mapping, copy structure, design, setup, configuration, development, testing, automation, dashboard work, and scheduled delivery capacity may be deducted.

Payment / tax / Payoneer disclaimer

Prices are quoted in USD unless stated otherwise. Local currency equivalents are calculated at the invoice/payment date. Bank charges, Payoneer/card/platform fees, currency conversion differences, withholding tax, VAT/GST/sales tax, third-party subscriptions, hosting, domains, paid APIs, ad spend, and government charges are excluded unless specifically included in the signed proposal. Tax treatment depends on client country, MAVLINX registration status, payment channel, export documentation, and applicable law. MAVLINX does not provide tax advice; clients and MAVLINX must rely on qualified tax professionals for final tax handling. No package guarantees ranking, leads, ad approvals, sales, revenue, or platform performance.

Project Stage Review

Refund review by project stage

Refund eligibility changes as the project moves from inquiry to accepted scope, planning, installation, review, handover, and support.

Inquiry stageNo refund issue usually exists before payment. Free inquiry review does not create delivery obligation.
Proposal acceptedOnce scope/payment is accepted, capacity may be reserved and planning may begin.
Work startedCompleted diagnosis, mapping, design, setup, or configuration may be deducted from refund review.
Third-party costs paidPurchased domains, hosting, tools, APIs, plugins, ad credits, and platform fees are usually non-refundable.
Review stageRequested revisions are handled under scope, not treated as automatic refund grounds.
Handover stageAfter delivery or handover, refunds are generally limited unless proposal-specific terms say otherwise.
Retainer stageMonthly retainers are generally billed in advance and may not be refundable after the service period starts.
Dispute stageRecords, communication, scope, payment, work logs, and client delays are reviewed before final decision.
Client Delay and Scope Changes

Client delay, scope change, and access issues

Refund eligibility may be reduced or denied when delivery is blocked by client-side issues, changed instructions, missing approvals, or platform access problems.

Missing content or assets

Delays caused by missing text, images, branding, policies, pricing, service details, product details, or legal copy do not automatically create refund eligibility.

Access not provided

If hosting, domain, WordPress, Google, email, ad, CRM, analytics, or platform access is not provided, delivery may pause without refund entitlement.

Scope changes

New pages, new features, new automation, new dashboards, new integrations, or changed business direction may require revised pricing instead of refund.

Approval delays

Slow review, changing decisions, unavailable stakeholders, or delayed feedback may extend timelines without making completed work refundable.

Platform issues

Hosting downtime, plugin conflicts, API limits, ad account restrictions, search engine delays, or third-party changes may affect delivery without being MAVLINX-controlled refund grounds.

Outcome dissatisfaction

No refund is owed merely because traffic, leads, rankings, approvals, revenue, ad performance, or sales do not meet expectations.

Review Process

How refund requests are reviewed

Refund requests should be submitted in writing with enough project and payment context for review.

01

Submit written request

Include client name, business name, invoice or proposal reference, payment date, service requested, reason for refund request, and supporting context.

02

Review scope and payment stage

MAVLINX reviews accepted scope, payment terms, project stage, work completed, communication history, and any signed or written proposal terms.

03

Calculate non-refundable deductions

Work completed, reserved capacity, third-party purchases, platform charges, payment fees, taxes, and unrecoverable costs may be deducted.

04

Issue decision or alternative route

Outcome may include denial, partial refund, service credit, revised scope, continuation of work, or written dispute review.

Processing time note

Refund review time depends on payment channel, project records, platform costs, third-party invoices, bank/payment processor timelines, and internal verification. MAVLINX does not control external bank, Payoneer, card, or platform processing timelines.
