01Purpose & Scope
This Refund Policy (the “Policy”) explains how Virely LLC handles refund, credit, and cancellation requests for Virely Growth Suite (virely.co).
This Policy applies to all subscription plans, add-on packs, pay-as-you-go (PAYG) usage where applicable, and one-time charges processed through virely.co. It is incorporated by reference into the Virely Growth Suite Terms of Service and each order form. Where this Policy conflicts with a signed enterprise agreement, the signed agreement governs.
02Definitions
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Subscription | Recurring monthly fee for access to a Virely Growth Suite tier. |
| Add-On Pack | Monthly SMS/email capacity packs (Small $20, Medium $45, Large $95) purchased on top of a Subscription. Not applicable to Virely Growth Suite. |
| PAYG | Virely Growth Suite does not use PAYG billing. Charges are limited to the Subscription fee and any one-time fees disclosed at purchase. |
| Billing Cycle | The monthly period from the subscription start or renewal date through the day before the next renewal. |

03General Refund Principles
- Virely Growth Suite operates on a subscription-based SaaS model. Subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring monthly basis.
- By default, all sales are final once the Billing Cycle has begun, except where this Policy explicitly provides for a refund or Service Credit.
- Refund decisions are made in good faith using the smart logic rules in Section 5. We will not unreasonably withhold a refund where a customer was charged in error, charged twice, or received no usable service.
- All refunds are issued in U.S. Dollars (USD) to the original payment method through Stripe.
- Products are sold in the United States only. International requests are evaluated case-by-case and may be denied at Virely’s sole discretion.
04New-Customer Money-Back Guarantee
14-day money-back guarantee on your first paid Billing Cycle for Virely Growth Suite, subject to the conditions below.
- Request must be submitted in writing to billing@virely.co within fourteen (14) calendar days of the first successful charge.
- Applies once per platform, per Account Owner, and per legal entity. Re-subscribers are not eligible a second time.
- PAYG usage and Add-On Pack consumption during the 14-day window are deducted from the refund at standard rates.
- If usage exceeds the value of the Subscription fee, no refund is owed; the Subscription will simply be cancelled at the end of the current Billing Cycle.
- Accounts terminated for fraud, abuse, chargeback history, or ToS violation are not eligible.
05Smart Refund Logic Matrix
The following matrix governs every refund decision. When more than one row applies, the row most favorable to the customer in good faith prevails, except in cases of fraud or termination for cause.
| Scenario | Outcome | Method / Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Duplicate or mistaken charge | Full refund | Refunded to original card within 5–10 business days. |
| Unauthorized charge (verified) | Full refund + secured | Access reset, MFA enforced, audit-log review. |
| First Billing Cycle, within 14 days, low usage | Full refund | New-customer guarantee per Section 4. |
| First Billing Cycle, within 14 days, heavy usage | Partial refund | Subscription fee minus PAYG-equivalent usage. |
| Mid-cycle cancellation (after day 14) | Cancel-at-period-end | Access continues through end of Billing Cycle; no proration. |
| Unused Add-On Pack capacity at month-end | Non-refundable | Packs are monthly and do not roll over (see Section 7). |
| PAYG SMS / email already sent | Non-refundable | Consumed services cannot be reversed. |
| Carrier-level message delivery failure | Auto-credit | Failed sends are not billed; auto-detected via webhook. |
| Platform outage exceeding SLA target | Service Credit | Tiered credits per Section 9. |
| Account terminated by Virely for cause | No refund | Fraud, abuse, ToS breach. |
| Account terminated by Virely without cause | Prorated refund | Unused portion of current Billing Cycle. |
| Price decrease announced within 7 days of renewal | Pro-rata credit | Difference applied as Service Credit. |
| Tier downgrade mid-cycle | Effective next cycle | No mid-cycle refund; new rate applies at renewal. |
| Tier upgrade mid-cycle | Prorated charge | Difference billed immediately for the remainder of the cycle. |
06Subscription Refunds
6.1 Monthly Subscriptions
- Monthly Subscriptions are billed in advance and renew automatically on the same calendar day each month.
- After the 14-day new-customer window, monthly Subscription fees are non-refundable for the current Billing Cycle.
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current Billing Cycle. Customers retain access through the paid-through date.
6.2 Annual or Prepaid Subscriptions
- Where Virely Growth Suite offers an annual or multi-month prepaid Subscription, customers may cancel for a prorated refund of the unused full months remaining at the time of the request.
- Discounts applied to annual plans are clawed back from the refund (refund is calculated against the equivalent monthly list price for months already used).
- Prorated refunds are issued within ten (10) business days.
6.3 Trial Conversions
- Where a free or discounted trial converts to a paid Subscription, the first paid Billing Cycle is covered by the Section 4 money-back guarantee.
07Add-On Packs (SMS / Email Capacity)
Not applicable to Virely Growth Suite. Virely Growth Suite does not offer SMS/email Add-On Packs.
08Pay-As-You-Go (PAYG) Charges
Scope of PAYG for Virely Growth Suite
Virely Growth Suite does not use PAYG billing. Charges are limited to the Subscription fee and any one-time fees disclosed at purchase.

How to claim
Submit a written credit claim to billing@virely.co within thirty (30) calendar days of the end of the affected month, citing the outage window. Service Credits are applied to the next invoice and do not stack across overlapping windows.
10Cancellation
10.1 Self-service cancellation
- Customers may cancel from within virely.co billing settings or by emailing billing@virely.co.
- Cancellation stops all future renewals. Access continues through the end of the current Billing Cycle.
- Cancellation does not by itself entitle the customer to a refund; refund eligibility is governed by Sections 4 through 9.
10.2 Effect on data
- Customer data is retained for ninety (90) calendar days after cancellation.
- After ninety (90) days, customer data is permanently deleted from production systems, subject to legal hold and audit retention requirements.
- Customers may request a data export prior to deletion by emailing support@virely.co.
10.3 Reactivation
- Cancelled accounts may be reactivated within the 90-day retention window at the same plan and rate, subject to availability of the tier and current pricing.
- Reactivation after the 90-day window is treated as a new Subscription. The new-customer money-back guarantee does not apply a second time.

Virely may suspend or terminate an account immediately and without refund for any of the following:
- Fraud, payment chargeback abuse, or impersonation.

- Failure to pay any invoice that remains past due more than fifteen (15) calendar days after written notice.
11.2 Termination without cause

12Chargebacks & Payment Disputes
- Customers are required to contact Virely at billing@virely.co before initiating a chargeback with their card issuer.
- Filing a chargeback without first attempting resolution may result in immediate account suspension pending review.

- If Virely determines a charge was invalid, we will withdraw any contest of the chargeback and waive any administrative fees.
13Non-Refundable Items
The following are not refundable except where required by applicable law:
- One-time setup, onboarding, migration, or professional-services fees, unless the work was not delivered.
- Third-party fees passed through to the customer (e.g., telecom carrier surcharges).
- Charges to accounts terminated for cause under Section 11.1.

- The Account Owner’s name and the email associated with the account.
