Refund and Cancellation Policy

This Refund and Cancellation Policy applies to all subscriptions, plans, services, and solutions purchased from Getgabs.

At Getgabs, we are committed to providing reliable business communication, WhatsApp automation, onboarding, technical assistance, and customer support services.

Getgabs allocates technical, onboarding, implementation, and support resources to customers from the commencement of the service. Therefore, refunds and cancellations are governed by the conditions stated in this Policy.

By purchasing, activating, or using Getgabs services, the customer acknowledges and agrees to this Refund and Cancellation Policy.

1. Seven-Day Refund Request Period

A customer may submit a refund request within 7 calendar days from the date of the initial payment, provided that the customer's onboarding has not been completed.

The 7-day period is a refund request period and does not constitute an unconditional or guaranteed money-back period.

All refund requests are subject to review and verification by Getgabs.

A refund request submitted after 7 calendar days from the initial payment date will not be eligible for a refund, except where otherwise required under applicable law.

Important: If the customer's onboarding is completed before the expiry of the 7-day period, the subscription becomes non-refundable from the date of onboarding completion.

For example, if a customer purchases a subscription and completes onboarding on the second day after payment, the subscription becomes non-refundable upon completion of onboarding. The remaining days of the 7-day period shall not constitute a refund eligibility period.

2. No Refund After Onboarding Completion

Once the customer's onboarding has been completed, all subscription and service fees paid to Getgabs shall be non-refundable, subject to applicable law.

This condition applies even where onboarding is completed within 7 calendar days of the customer's initial payment.

The customer acknowledges that Getgabs allocates human, technical, support, and operational resources during the onboarding process.

Once onboarding is completed and the subscribed service has been provisioned, the customer shall not be entitled to a refund solely because the customer subsequently changes their mind, no longer requires the service, decides not to continue using the platform, or chooses another service provider.

3. Definition of Onboarding Completion

For the purpose of this Policy, onboarding may be considered completed when Getgabs has completed the initial setup or enablement reasonably required for the customer to commence using the subscribed service.

Onboarding completion may include one or more of the following:

  • Customer account activation;
  • Provision of access to the Getgabs dashboard;
  • Completion of an onboarding meeting or onboarding session;
  • Platform walkthrough or product training;
  • WhatsApp Business API onboarding assistance;
  • WhatsApp Business Account connection assistance;
  • Meta Business Manager setup or connection assistance;
  • Phone number onboarding, connection, or migration assistance;
  • Initial account or platform configuration;
  • Template creation, submission, or configuration assistance;
  • Campaign setup assistance;
  • Chatbot, automation, flow, or form setup assistance;
  • API or webhook configuration assistance;
  • CRM, Shopify, or third-party integration assistance;
  • Technical configuration or implementation;
  • Dedicated setup assistance through WhatsApp, email, telephone, video meeting, or any other support channel.

Getgabs is not required to complete every activity listed above for onboarding to be considered completed.

Onboarding shall be considered completed based on the services applicable to the customer's purchased plan and onboarding requirements.

Getgabs may maintain account records, meeting records, support communications, platform logs, configuration records, and onboarding records as evidence of onboarding completion and services delivered.

4. Refund Eligibility Before Onboarding Completion

A refund may be considered only where:

  • The refund request is submitted within 7 calendar days of the initial payment;
  • The customer's onboarding has not been completed;
  • Substantial implementation, custom configuration, or customer-specific technical work has not commenced; and
  • The customer provides the information reasonably required by Getgabs to review the refund request.

Submission of a refund request does not automatically guarantee approval.

Getgabs may review the customer's account activity, support records, onboarding status, configuration history, and services already provided before making a refund decision.

Where substantial work or services have already been performed before formal onboarding completion, Getgabs may consider an appropriate partial refund after accounting for services already delivered and reasonable costs incurred, subject to applicable law.

5. Technical Issues and Platform Support

The reporting or existence of a software bug, technical issue, temporary interruption, or platform error does not automatically entitle the customer to a refund.

Once onboarding has been completed, the subscription fee remains non-refundable, and any reported technical issue will be handled through Getgabs' technical support and resolution process.

Customers must report technical issues to the Getgabs Support Team and provide the information reasonably required to investigate the issue. Getgabs shall be provided a reasonable opportunity to investigate, troubleshoot, and provide a fix, workaround, correction, or other appropriate resolution.

Minor bugs, temporary interruptions, cosmetic issues, configuration-related issues, third-party platform issues, or issues that do not materially prevent the use of the core subscribed service shall not qualify for a refund.

Nothing in this section limits any rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

6. Meta, WhatsApp, and Third-Party Platform Issues

Getgabs provides services that may integrate with third-party platforms and services, including Meta and the WhatsApp Business Platform.

Getgabs does not control the independent policies, systems, decisions, approvals, restrictions, or enforcement actions of third-party platforms.

Refunds shall not be provided solely due to:

  • WhatsApp Business Account restrictions or suspension;
  • Meta Business Manager restrictions;
  • Business verification rejection or delay;
  • Display name rejection or delay;
  • WhatsApp template rejection, reclassification, or delay;
  • Message delivery failure caused by Meta or WhatsApp systems or policies;
  • Healthy ecosystem engagement restrictions;
  • Messaging limits;
  • Quality rating changes;
  • Account quality restrictions;
  • User blocks or reports;
  • Recipient behaviour;
  • Campaign response or conversion rates;
  • Meta or WhatsApp policy changes;
  • Third-party API changes;
  • Third-party service downtime;
  • Third-party integration limitations; or
  • Any decision independently made by Meta, WhatsApp, or another third-party service provider.

Getgabs may provide reasonable support and guidance regarding third-party platform issues within the scope of the customer's active subscription.

However, Getgabs cannot guarantee approvals, message delivery, account verification, template approval, quality ratings, campaign results, or decisions made by third-party platforms.

7. Change of Mind and Business Results

No refund shall be provided after onboarding completion because:

  • The customer changed their mind;
  • The customer no longer requires the service;
  • The customer decided to use another service provider;
  • The customer discontinued their business or campaign;
  • The customer did not use the platform after onboarding;
  • The customer did not achieve expected sales, leads, conversions, engagement, or business results;
  • The customer's customers or recipients did not respond to messages;
  • The customer misunderstood a feature that was not included or officially committed to as part of the purchased plan;
  • The customer expected custom functionality that was not agreed to in writing before purchase.

Getgabs provides software and communication tools and does not guarantee specific business, marketing, sales, revenue, engagement, campaign, or message delivery results.

8. Customer Cooperation and Delayed Onboarding

Customers are responsible for providing the information, documents, access, permissions, and cooperation reasonably required to complete onboarding and provide the subscribed service.

A refund shall not be provided solely because the customer:

  • Fails to attend scheduled onboarding meetings;
  • Repeatedly reschedules or delays onboarding;
  • Does not respond to the Getgabs team;
  • Fails to provide required documents or information;
  • Fails to provide Meta Business Manager access or required permissions;
  • Does not complete required actions on their account;
  • Delays phone number or WhatsApp Business Account setup; or
  • Discontinues the onboarding process after Getgabs has commenced work.

Where Getgabs has made reasonable attempts to complete onboarding but the onboarding is delayed or prevented due to the customer's action, inaction, or lack of cooperation, the customer shall not automatically be entitled to a refund.

Getgabs may consider the work already performed, resources allocated, support provided, and reasonable costs incurred when reviewing any refund request.

9. Subscription Renewals and Cancellation

Getgabs subscriptions may automatically renew where recurring billing has been selected or authorised by the customer.

Customers are responsible for cancelling their subscription before the applicable renewal date if they do not wish to continue the service.

Cancellation of a subscription prevents future renewals, subject to the applicable billing arrangement, but does not automatically create a right to a refund for the current or any previously paid subscription period.

No refund shall be provided solely because:

  • The customer forgot to cancel the subscription;
  • The customer did not use the service during the subscription period;
  • The customer failed to cancel before renewal; or
  • The customer requested cancellation after a renewal payment was processed.

Nothing in this Policy limits any cancellation, payment mandate, or other right that cannot be restricted under applicable law or applicable payment-provider rules.

10. Promotional, Discounted, and Special Pricing

Plans or services purchased under:

  • Promotional offers;
  • Event offers;
  • Discounted pricing;
  • Negotiated pricing;
  • Special commercial offers;
  • Partner pricing;
  • Referral pricing;
  • Reseller pricing;
  • White-label pricing; or
  • Any other specially approved pricing arrangement

may be subject to specific commercial and refund conditions communicated before or at the time of purchase.

Where a service or commercial arrangement has been expressly identified as non-refundable before payment, the payment shall be non-refundable after service activation or commencement of work, subject to applicable law.

11. White Label, Partner, Reseller, and Custom Services

Payments made for white-label services, reseller arrangements, partner plans, custom integrations, custom development, dedicated implementation, branding, or customer-specific technical work shall be non-refundable once work has commenced.

Work shall be considered commenced when Getgabs initiates any agreed:

  • Account provisioning;
  • White-label setup;
  • Branding;
  • Domain configuration;
  • Platform configuration;
  • Technical implementation;
  • Integration;
  • Custom development;
  • Partner account setup; or
  • Dedicated onboarding activity.

Where a separate agreement, order form, proposal, invoice, statement of work, or written commercial agreement contains specific refund conditions, those specific conditions shall apply to the relevant service.

12. Fair Usage of Onboarding and Support Services

Getgabs provides onboarding and customer support to assist customers in successfully using the platform.

Customers are expected to use onboarding and support services reasonably and in good faith.

A customer may not extensively utilise onboarding, implementation, technical assistance, configuration, meetings, training, or support resources and subsequently claim a full refund solely because they no longer wish to continue using the service.

Where Getgabs has allocated or delivered onboarding, implementation, technical, or support resources, such services shall be considered in reviewing any refund request.

13. Refund Request Procedure

Eligible refund requests must be submitted to the official Getgabs Support Team within 7 calendar days from the initial payment date and before onboarding completion.

The customer must provide:

  • Registered account email address;
  • Customer or company name;
  • Invoice or payment details;
  • Reason for requesting the refund; and
  • Any additional information reasonably requested by Getgabs.

Getgabs may request additional information required to verify the customer's onboarding status, account activity, services delivered, or reason for the refund request.

Failure to provide the requested information may delay the review of the refund request.

14. Refund Review and Processing

Eligible refund requests will normally be reviewed within 7–10 business days after Getgabs receives all information reasonably required to review the request.

If a refund is approved, the refund will generally be processed through the original payment method wherever reasonably possible.

The time required for the refunded amount to appear in the customer's account may depend on the customer's bank, payment gateway, card issuer, or payment service provider.

Any approved refund shall be subject to applicable payment processing, taxation, invoicing, and legal requirements.

15. Abuse or Misuse of the Refund Process

Getgabs reserves the right to reject refund requests that are fraudulent, abusive, misleading, or made in bad faith, subject to applicable law.

This may include situations where a customer deliberately utilises substantial onboarding, configuration, implementation, training, or support services and subsequently seeks a refund without a genuine service-related basis.

Getgabs may rely on account logs, support communications, meeting records, onboarding records, platform activity, and configuration history when reviewing refund requests.

16. Applicable Law and Consumer Rights

Nothing in this Refund and Cancellation Policy is intended to exclude, restrict, or override any right, remedy, or obligation that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

Where applicable law requires Getgabs to provide a refund, correction, remedy, or other consumer protection, Getgabs will comply with such requirement.

For refund or cancellation requests, customers must contact the official Getgabs Support Team using the official contact information provided on the Getgabs website.
