FAQs

A refund policy – sometimes called an exchange policy or return policy – is a document used by stores to provide transparency around their return process and what makes a purchase eligible for a return.

A return policy’s purpose is to give consumers confidence that they are protected should a product not meet expectations, and to limit a business’s exposure to financial risk and disputes caused by customers abusing return loopholes.

We recommend implementing a refund policy for any business that sells a product, physical or digital. This includes both ecommerce and brick and mortar stores. A refund policy is critical to protecting your business’s interests and the interests of your customers, and in most cases, legally required. Follow the example of some of the biggest retailers around the world – ASOS, Amazon, or Cosco – make sure you have a refund policy in place.

There are a few great reasons to use a refund policy generator over a template:

  1. Generating a policy takes less time than editing a template

  2. Generators come with a dashboard that allows you to update all your policies from one place

  3. Generators will host your policy which means you won’t need a website to display it to your customers – perfect if you run your store from a social media platform

  4. Generators like GetTerms monitor changes in laws and will notify you if you need to update your refund policy for compliance reasons

  5. Generators will ask you clear questions that you can easily understand so that your policy can be tailored to your business’s needs

That being said, if you’re after a template, we’ve created one you can use free of charge!
