Refund & Cancellation Policy
Last updated 19 August 2026
Komerce sells professional services, not physical products. This policy explains how deposits, project fees, retainers and cancellations are handled so expectations are clear before work starts.
1. Deposits
The deposit reserves your slot in our delivery calendar and covers discovery, audit and planning work that begins immediately. Deposits are non-refundable once that work has started.
If you cancel before any work begins — within 48 hours of payment and before kickoff — we refund the deposit in full.
2. Project work
Completed and approved milestones are non-refundable. If you cancel mid-project, we invoice for work delivered up to the cancellation date and refund any unearned balance within 14 business days.
Where a milestone is partially complete, we calculate the refund on hours worked and hand over the work-in-progress files.
3. Monthly retainers
Retainers are billed in advance for a calendar month and are non-refundable once the month has begun, because capacity is reserved for you.
You can cancel a retainer with 30 days' written notice. Service continues through the notice period, and unused hours do not roll over or convert to credit.
4. Delivery issues
If a deliverable does not match the agreed scope, tell us within 30 days and we will correct it at no extra cost. Rework is our primary remedy; a refund is considered only if we cannot deliver the agreed scope at all.
5. What is not refundable
Third-party costs we pass through or purchase on your behalf — Shopify plans, Faire fees, apps, themes, fonts, plugins, stock assets, hosting and ad spend — are non-refundable, as they are set by the provider.
Change-of-mind, internal strategy shifts, delays caused by missing client input, and results that depend on market factors outside our control are also not grounds for a refund.
6. Cancelled or missed calls
Discovery calls are free. Please reschedule at least 12 hours ahead if plans change; repeated no-shows may mean we cannot offer further slots.
7. How to request a refund
Email hello@komerce.site with your invoice number and the reason for the request. We acknowledge within 3 business days, review against this policy and the signed scope, and process approved refunds to the original payment method within 14 business days.
8. Chargebacks
Please contact us before raising a chargeback. Disputes filed without giving us an opportunity to resolve the issue may result in suspension of active work and withholding of deliverables until the matter is settled.
