What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from Stockwise
At Stockwise, we strive to provide our users with a seamless experience while using our investment tracking and analytics platform. Understanding your eligibility for refunds is essential to managing your subscription effectively and ensuring that your account meets your needs.
Refunds may be applicable in certain circumstances related to subscription services, which are primarily determined by account management inquiries and the specific usage of our platform. Below are some situations where you might qualify for a refund:
Trial Period Conversion: If you enrolled in a free trial and subsequently were charged for a subscription without intending to continue, you may be eligible for a refund upon request, provided you contact us within the designated time frame.
Service Downtime: If there was an unexpected service interruption that significantly affected your ability to use the platform, you could inquire about a refund for that billing period.
Billing Cycle Misalignment: Should you believe that your billing cycle does not align with your subscription plan due to a system input, adjustments may be considered, potentially allowing for a pro-rated refund.
Duplicated Charges for Upgrades: In the event that an upgrade to your subscription plan resulted in multiple charges, you may reach out for clarification and potential refund eligibility for any surplus amounts.
If you find yourself in one of these situations, we encourage you to reach out to our customer service team for assistance. We are committed to helping you understand your account and clarify any billing questions you may have.
