Refund Policy

Last updated: May 2026

Nothing in this policy limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law or the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act. If the Service has a major failure, you are entitled to a full refund.

1. Starter (Free) Plan

BrandMate's Starter plan is free forever — no credit card, no expiry. There is nothing to refund because nothing is charged. You can use Starter indefinitely and upgrade to Growth or Managed only when you choose to.

Paid plans (Growth, Managed) follow the refund table below.

2. Refund Summary

Scenario Refund
Monthly plan cancellation No refund for partial months. Access continues until end of billing period.
Annual plan — cancelled within 30 days Pro-rata refund for unused months
Annual plan — cancelled after 30 days No refund. Access continues until end of annual period.
Service failure (7+ consecutive days) Pro-rata refund for the affected period
Account terminated for terms violation Non-refundable
Major service failure (ACL/CGA) Full refund as required by law

3. Monthly Subscription

You may cancel your monthly subscription at any time from your dashboard. There are no cancellation fees. Upon cancellation:

  • Your access to the Service continues until the end of your current billing period.
  • No refund is issued for any remaining days in the current billing period.
  • Your subscription will not renew for the next month.

4. Annual Subscription

  • Within 30 days of purchase: If you cancel your annual subscription within the first 30 days, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund for the unused months remaining on your plan.
  • After 30 days: No refund is available for annual subscriptions cancelled after 30 days. Your access continues until the end of your annual subscription period.

5. Service Failure Refund

If BrandMate fails to provide its core service (GBP audits, review management, content generation) for 7 or more consecutive days due to issues within our control, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund for the affected period.

This does not apply to:

  • Scheduled maintenance (which we will notify you of in advance)
  • Outages caused by third-party services (Google, Dodo Payments, Razorpay, etc.)
  • Force majeure events

6. How to Request a Refund

  • Cancel from dashboard: Log in to your BrandMate account and cancel your subscription from the account settings page.
  • Email: Send your refund request to anz@brandmate.ai with your account email and reason for the request.

7. Processing Time

Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method:

  • Dodo Payments (AU, NZ, UK, SG, LK customers): 5 to 10 business days to card / bank / wallet used at checkout.
  • Razorpay (India customers — UPI Autopay / Cards / NetBanking): 5 to 7 working days to the original payment source, in line with RBI Master Direction on Card-Not-Present refund timelines.

The time for the refund to appear in your account may vary depending on your bank or payment provider. We will email you a confirmation when the refund is initiated, with a reference number you can quote to your bank.

8. Non-Refundable Situations

  • Accounts terminated due to violations of our Terms of Service
  • Accounts terminated for abusive behaviour, fraud, or illegal activity
  • Partial month usage on monthly plans
  • Annual plans cancelled after 30 days

9. Consumer Law Notice (6 Countries)

Nothing in this Refund Policy is intended to limit, exclude, or override your statutory consumer rights in the country where you reside:

  • Australia: Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010)
  • New Zealand: Consumer Guarantees Act 1993
  • United Kingdom: Consumer Rights Act 2015 — 14-day cancellation right for online subscriptions, plus statutory remedies for digital content not of satisfactory quality.
  • India: Consumer Protection Act 2019 — entitled to refund / replacement for defective digital service. Disputes can be raised with the Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission.
  • Singapore: Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act 2003 — lemon law applies to digital products.
  • Sri Lanka: Consumer Affairs Authority Act 2003.

If the Service has a major failure (e.g. unavailable for a prolonged period, materially different from what was advertised), you are entitled to:

  • Cancel your subscription and receive a full refund, or
  • Receive compensation for the reduction in value of the Service.

If the Service has a minor failure, you are entitled to have the problem rectified in a reasonable time or receive a refund. These statutory rights apply in addition to (and override where they conflict) the refund table in §2 above.

10. Chargebacks & Payment Disputes

Before raising a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card issuer, please contact us at anz@brandmate.ai — we resolve most refund requests within 2 business days. Chargebacks lodged without prior contact may result in your account being suspended pending investigation.
