Refund Policy

PaperBanana's refund and cancellation policy for subscriptions and credit packages

2025/02/21

Overview

At PaperBanana, we want you to be satisfied with our service. This Refund Policy explains when and how you may request a refund for your purchases.

Last Updated: February 21, 2025

How Refunds Are Calculated

For all refund requests, we calculate the refund amount based on actual credit consumption:

Refund Amount = Amount Paid × (Unused Credits ÷ Total Credits Granted)

For example: if you purchased a monthly plan that granted 800 credits for $39.99, and you have used 200 credits, your refund would be $39.99 × (600 ÷ 800) = $29.99.

We review each request individually and issue a partial or full refund accordingly. This approach ensures you only pay for what you actually use.

Subscription Plans

Monthly Subscriptions

  • Monthly subscriptions may be cancelled at any time through your account settings
  • Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — you retain access and credits until then
  • Refund window: Refund requests are accepted within 30 days of your payment date
  • The refund amount is calculated based on unused credits remaining at the time of your request

Annual Subscriptions

  • Annual subscriptions may be cancelled at any time through your account settings
  • Credits are distributed monthly throughout the annual subscription period
  • Refund window: Refund requests are accepted within 30 days of each monthly credit distribution
  • The refund amount is calculated based on unused credits across all distributed months

Credit Packages (One-Time Purchases)

  • Refund window: Refund requests are accepted within 90 days of purchase (matching the credit validity period)
  • The refund amount is calculated based on unused credits remaining in your account at the time of the request
  • Credits that have already expired are not eligible for refund

Exceptions — Full Refund Cases

In the following circumstances, we will issue a full refund regardless of credit usage:

  • Technical failures: If a generation error on our end consumed your credits, we will restore those credits (or issue a refund if you prefer)
  • Duplicate charges: If you were charged more than once for the same purchase
  • Unauthorized charges: If your account was accessed and used without your authorization
