Refund Policy

Last updated: 2026-09-12

1. First purchase: 14 days

For your first purchase of any plan (lifetime, yearly, or monthly) you can request a refund within 14 days of the payment. You do not need to give a reason. We refund the full amount you paid, including any tax collected.

2. Renewals: 7 days if unused

Automatic renewals can be refunded within 7 days of the renewal charge, as long as the renewed period has not been used for anything beyond ordinary trial-level testing. Cancel the subscription first if you do not want the next renewal; cancelling stops future charges but does not by itself refund the current period.

3. What we cannot refund

• Requests made after the windows above, unless required by law in your country.
• Accounts terminated for abuse, such as repeated trial creation or account sharing.
• Payments made more than 180 days ago, where the payment provider can no longer process a reversal.

4. EU/UK consumers and the right of withdrawal

If you are a consumer in the EEA, the UK, or a similar jurisdiction, you generally have a 14-day right of withdrawal for digital content. By buying and immediately gaining access to the Software, you ask us to begin delivery right away, and you acknowledge that you lose the right of withdrawal once delivery has begun. We still honour the 14-day no-questions refund in section 1, which is at least as generous, so in practice you have the same 14 days either way.

5. Defective or unavailable service

If the Software does not work as described for you and we cannot fix it, you can request a refund at any time during your paid period — for the unused portion of a subscription, or in full for a lifetime purchase. This is independent of the windows above.

6. How to request a refund

1. Write to hi@microstep.today from the email address you used to buy, or tell us the email address and the approximate payment date.
2. We reply within 2 business days and pass the request to our merchant of record.
3. The refund goes back to the original payment method. Banks typically take 5–10 business days to show it. Taxes collected are refunded along with the payment.

Refunds are processed by our merchant of record, which is the legal seller for your purchase; it appears on your bank statement and it issues the credit.

7. Chargebacks

Please contact us before opening a chargeback. We refund quickly when asked directly, and a chargeback usually takes much longer to resolve for both sides.
