Returns & Refunds

Fair Returns.
No Runaround.

We built this platform to put authors first — and that means being honest with readers too. This policy is written in plain language. If something goes wrong with your purchase, here is exactly what we will do about it.

Every refund we issue is a deduction from an author's earnings. We take that seriously. We will always try to resolve issues before processing a refund — but we will never trap a reader in a purchase that genuinely did not deliver what was promised.

By Purchase Type

📄

Digital Downloads (PDF)

Digital files are generally non-refundable once downloaded — the file cannot be returned in any meaningful sense.

We will issue a full refund without question if:

  • The file is corrupt or fails to open
  • The wrong file was delivered
  • The file is materially different from what was described
  • You were charged but never received download access

Requests must be made within 14 days of purchase.

📦

Physical Books

Physical books may be returned within 30 days of the delivery date, provided the book is in its original, unread condition.

We cover return shipping costs if the return is due to:

  • A damaged or defective copy
  • An incorrect item sent
  • Significant delay beyond the estimated shipping window

For change-of-mind returns, the buyer is responsible for return shipping. Refunds are issued once the book is received and inspected.

Tips

Tip payments go directly to the author and are non-refundable.

Tips are voluntary contributions — not a purchase of goods or services. Once processed, they cannot be reversed. Please tip only what you intend to give.

If you were charged a tip amount you did not authorize (e.g. due to a technical error), contact us immediately and we will investigate.

🎁

Bundles

Bundle purchases (physical + digital) are treated according to the individual components: the digital portion follows the digital policy, the physical portion follows the physical returns policy.

If the digital component of a bundle has been downloaded, a partial refund for the physical component only may be issued if the physical book is returned in original condition.

How to Request a Refund
01

Contact us

Email us at [email protected] or use the secure contact form. Include your order number, the item in question, and a brief description of the issue.

02

We respond within 2 business days

We will confirm receipt and let you know whether we need any additional information — for example, a screenshot of a file error or confirmation of a delivery address for physical returns.

03

Resolution

For approved refunds, the amount is returned to your original payment method within 5–10 business days depending on your bank. Stripe processing fees (2.9% + $0.30) are non-recoverable and will be deducted from refunds where applicable.

Disputes & Chargebacks

If you are considering filing a chargeback with your bank or card issuer, please contact us first. We resolve legitimate disputes quickly and without friction. Chargebacks that are filed without prior contact are treated as fraud and will be contested.

We log download activity, delivery confirmations, and session data for all purchases. This information is used solely to resolve disputes — not for marketing or profiling.
