Pairfully Refund Policy
Effective date: March 7, 2026
This policy explains when a user can receive a refund for Pairfully match payments.
1. What a match payment covers
- A match payment covers access to one matchmaking cycle in an active cohort.
- It does not guarantee a specific person or a specific date outcome.
- It does not guarantee a timeline shorter than the cohort window.
2. Pool balance and no-match protection
- Default remedy: 100% credit rollover to the next cohort (valid for 90 days).
- On request: partial cash refund after non-refundable costs are deducted.
- A user is considered not matched if no active match connection is created by the matchmaking deadline.
3. Refund-eligible scenarios
- Paid and completed onboarding but not matched by the matchmaking deadline.
- Duplicate charge for the same match cycle.
- Technical failure where payment was captured but service could not be delivered.
4. Non-refundable cost components
- Prembly KYC verification fee (currently ₦100 per verification attempt).
- Payment gateway/processor charges (e.g., Paystack fees).
- Third-party service costs already consumed for that user.
5. Refund calculation
Refund Amount = Amount Paid - Non-Refundable Costs
If deductions are equal to or greater than the amount paid, no cash refund is due and rollover credit remains the available remedy.
6. Cancellation timing rule
If a user cancels less than 24 hours before a confirmed date, that payment is considered consumed and is not refundable except where required by law.
7. How to request a refund
Email james@pairfully.com with your account email, payment reference, cohort name (if known), and reason for request.
Reviews are completed within 3 business days, and approved refunds are processed within 5-10 business days.
