Refund & Cancellation Policy

Effective Date: June 20, 2025. This document outlines the terms and conditions governing refunds, cancellations, and redemption disputes for all transactions conducted on the Gebeya Platform.

1. General Provisions

Gebeya operates as an intermediary marketplace connecting Users with third-party Merchants. When you purchase a "Deal" or "Voucher," you are purchasing a right to receive services or goods from a Merchant. Gebeya is not the provider of the Merchant services and is not responsible for the ultimate quality or delivery of said services, except as explicitly stated herein.

2. Refund Eligibility & Timeframes

Standard Refund Window

Unused and unredeemed Vouchers are eligible for a full refund within seven (7) calendar days of purchase, unless the Deal is marked as "Final Sale" or has a shorter promotional window.

Expiration Policy

Once a Voucher reaches its expiration date as specified in the Deal Terms, it is strictly non-refundable. Gebeya does not offer credits or extensions for expired Vouchers.

3. Non-Returnable Items & Final Sale

In compliance with health, safety, and hygiene regulations, certain categories of items and services are exempt from our standard refund policy. These items are strictly non-refundable once the purchase is complete or the seal is broken.

Non-Returnable Items Infographic
Critical Notice

As shown above, categories including but not limited to Personal Care, Undergarments, Software, and Perishables are final sale. By completing a transaction for these categories, the User waives their right to a standard 7-day refund.

4. Redemption & Failed Fulfillment

Merchant Refusal
If a Merchant refuses to honor a valid, unredeemed Voucher during its validity period, Users must notify Gebeya within 24 hours. Gebeya will verify the refusal and, if confirmed, issue an immediate refund.
Service Quality
Gebeya does not warrant the quality of Merchant services. Disputes regarding service experience (e.g., "the food was cold") must be resolved directly with the Merchant. Platform refunds are not issued for subjective service dissatisfaction.

5. Payment Methods & Processing

  • Refund Destination

    Refunds are typically processed back to the original payment method. In certain cases, at the User's request, refunds can be issued as "Gebeya Wallet Credit" for immediate use.

  • Processing Timelines

    Gebeya initiates refunds within 48 business hours of approval. Depending on your financial institution, funds may take 5-10 business days to appear in your account.

6. Fraud, Abuse & Chargebacks

Duplicate Redemption: Attempting to redeem a voucher twice or sharing voucher codes for unauthorized use constitutes fraud. Gebeya reserves the right to permanently ban accounts and pursue legal action for such activities.

Chargeback Policy: Initiation of a credit card chargeback for a valid transaction without first contacting Gebeya Support is considered a violation of our Terms of Service. In the event of a chargeback, the associated account will be suspended pending an investigation.

Promotional Vouchers: Free vouchers, giveaway credits, or referral rewards have zero cash value and are not eligible for refunds.

7. Jurisdiction & Compliance

This policy is governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Gebeya operates. We comply with all local consumer protection regulations. In the event that local law mandates a refund window longer than seven days, Gebeya will adjust eligibility for residents of that jurisdiction accordingly.

Gebeya reserves the right to modify this Refund Policy at any time. Significant changes will be communicated via email or through a notification on the Platform.
