Refund Policy
Last updated: February 20, 2026
This Refund Policy explains when and how you can request a refund for BarsVision services. All payments are processed by our Merchant of Record, Paddle.com, who handles all billing, refunds, and related inquiries.
1. Paddle as Merchant of Record
Paddle.com acts as the Merchant of Record for all BarsVision transactions. This means that when you make a purchase, you are buying from Paddle, who then provides you with access to the BarsVision Service. All refund requests are processed through Paddle.
2. Refund Eligibility
2.1 Purchase Refunds
You may be eligible for a refund under the following circumstances:
- Within 14 days of purchase: if you are unsatisfied with the Service and have not extensively used it, you may request a full refund
- Service unavailability: if the Service was significantly unavailable or non-functional during your usage
- Unauthorized charges: if you were charged without your authorization
- Duplicate charges: if you were charged more than once for the same transaction
2.2 Non-Refundable Situations
Refunds are generally not available for:
- Requests made more than 14 days after purchase
- Dissatisfaction with AI-generated output quality (as results vary based on input)
- Successfully completed generations that have already been delivered
3. How to Request a Refund
Since Paddle is our Merchant of Record, refund requests should be directed to Paddle:
- Option 1: Contact Paddle support directly through their support page
- Option 2: Reply to your Paddle purchase receipt email
- Option 3: Contact us at support@barsvision.ai and we will coordinate with Paddle on your behalf
When requesting a refund, please include your order number (found in your Paddle receipt email) and the reason for your request.
4. Refund Processing
Once a refund is approved by Paddle, please allow 5–10 business days for the refund to appear on your statement. The exact timing depends on your payment method and financial institution. Refunds are issued to the original payment method used for the purchase.
5. Account Closure
You may close your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting us. Since BarsVision uses pay-per-use billing, there are no recurring charges to cancel. Any outstanding balance will be settled at the time of account closure.
6. Chargebacks
Before initiating a chargeback with your bank or credit card company, we encourage you to contact Paddle or us first. Chargebacks can result in your account being suspended and may take longer to resolve than a direct refund request.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Refund Policy from time to time. Changes will be effective when posted. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
8. Contact
For refund-related questions, you can reach us at support@barsvision.ai or contact Paddle directly through their support page.
