Credit restoration is not the same as payment refund

Product Credit restoration handles a processing task that fails or is rejected before a usable result is delivered. A payment refund reverses all or part of a completed credit-pack purchase to the original payment method and follows the rules below.

Digital purchase, delivery and cancellation

Product Credit packs are one-time digital purchases with no recurring subscription. Credits are normally delivered to the signed-in account after payment confirmation. You may leave or cancel checkout before payment completes; after payment, use the refund-request process below.

When a payment refund may be requested

Contact support within 14 calendar days of purchase if the purchased credits remain unused. Refunds may also be considered for a duplicate or unauthorized charge, confirmed payment with credits not delivered, or a material service-access defect. This policy does not limit non-waivable withdrawal, refund or consumer remedies under applicable law.

When a payment refund is normally not available

Except where required by law, a change-of-mind refund is normally unavailable after any credits from the pack have been used. Purchased Credits do not expire. A technically usable result that does not match a subjective preference is not automatically refundable. We may issue a partial refund or goodwill credit when appropriate, without creating a general entitlement.

How to request a payment refund

Use the billing category on the contact page and include the account email, order or receipt reference, purchase date, reason and whether any credits were used. Do not send a full card number, card security code or payment-provider password.

Review and refund timing

We respond to billing and refund requests within 3 business days. If approved, a refund is submitted without undue delay to the original payment method through the provider that processed the order. Stripe refunds usually appear 5–10 business days after issuance, depending on the bank. Creem-processed refunds are handled through Creem under its buyer terms and customer-portal procedures. Provider, bank, fraud or legal review can take longer.

Credit hold

Browser Free and local validation use 0 Product Credits. Cloud Unblur temporarily sets aside 10 Product Credits only when server-side processing starts.

Credit consumption

Held credits are consumed only after a usable private result is delivered. Product Credits are the only user-facing credit unit.

Automatic restoration cases

Local validation rejection uses 0 credits. Once credits are held, they are restored for a processing timeout, service error, no usable output, service-side rejection or interrupted processing before a usable result is delivered.

Retry and no double charge

If a retry produces the first usable result, the user still pays for only one Standard Unblur task.

Successful but disliked results

A technically usable result is not automatically refunded. Support may review severe quality issues without promising a fixed outcome.

Credit expiration

New-account Credits do not expire. Purchased Starter and Plus Credits never expire.

Payment refunds

Refund eligibility depends on the unused-credit, delivery, duplicate-charge, unauthorized-charge, service-defect and applicable-law rules above. Refunds are returned only to the original payment method through the provider that processed the purchase.

Questions this page answers

Do failed tasks use credits?

Credits are returned when processing cannot deliver a usable result. Local validation rejections use 0 credits.

What if retry is used?

A retry does not create a second user charge when it produces the first usable result.

Can I refund a credit pack?

Request review within 14 calendar days if the pack is unused, or promptly for a duplicate, unauthorized or undelivered purchase. Statutory rights remain unaffected.

Do credits expire?

New-account Credits do not expire. Purchased Starter and Plus Credits never expire.
