What is an Refund Policy?

A refund policy explains the terms and conditions a business will follow to return money a customer paid for products or services. It will explain:

  • When refunds are allowed
  • How long a customer has to request the refund
  • The process for submitting a request
  • Whether the refund will be full, partial, or in the form of credit
  • What items are non-refundable
  • The kind of proof of purchase a customer needs to make the return (receipts, tags on the item, etc)
  • How much time it will take to process a refund

Having these policies in writing protects the business and the customer by clearly setting expectations, which can help avoid disputes.

We provide a refund policy template you can easily customize with your specific terms and procedures. Our fillable template is especially useful for small business owners and e-commerce retailers looking to create a clear and professional refund policy.
