Customer Satisfaction & Billing

Cancellation & Refund Policy

Last updated: September 2026 • Effective globally for all ZetaQR plans and dynamic QR subscriptions

14-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Full 100% refund on Pro and Business paid subscription plans if requested within 14 calendar days of your initial upgrade or renewal charge.

Print Continuity Protection

Cancelling your plan never immediately breaks your active printed QR codes. Codes keep working, and you get 30 days' notice before anything is archived.

Zero Cancellation Penalties

Cancel your recurring subscription anytime directly from your dashboard. There are zero cancellation fees, lock-in clauses, or early termination penalties.

Prompt Bank Remittance

Approved refunds are remitted to your original payment gateway within 1–2 business days and appear in your bank account within 5–10 business days.

1. Overview & Customer Commitment

ZetaQR ("ZetaQR", "we", "us" or "our") makes dynamic QR codes, short links and scan analytics. If something goes wrong with your plan, we'd rather fix it or refund you than argue about it.

This policy explains how cancelling works, when you can get your money back, and what happens to codes you've already printed. We've tried to keep it short and plain.

Current Platform Status (Pre-December 1st): ZetaQR is currently 100% free for all registered users until December 1st, 2026. All dynamic QR codes, branded short links, and scan analytics features are free without requiring payment credentials. Standard paid subscription tiers will commence on December 1st, 2026, accompanied by full 14-day refund protection.

2. The ZetaQR 14-Day Money-Back Guarantee

Try a paid plan without worrying about it. Every new Pro and Business subscription, monthly or annual, comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.

Guarantee Terms & Eligibility

  • Coverage Window: You may request a full 100% refund within 14 calendar days from the date and timestamp of your initial plan upgrade or automatic renewal charge.
  • No Questions Required: If ZetaQR turns out not to be right for you, we'll refund your payment in full.
  • Monthly & Annual Plans: The 14-day refund window applies equally to both monthly and annual subscription agreements.
  • Full Payment Reversal: The refund will cover the entire amount billed for the applicable subscription cycle, issued back to the original funding source.

3. Physical Print Continuity & QR Preservation Policy

One of the greatest fears for any marketer, restaurant operator, or packaging manufacturer is that cancelling software might suddenly cause printed QR codes on physical items to fail, showing an ugly 404 error to customers.

At ZetaQR, we adhere to a strict Physical Print Protection Policy:

  • No Sudden Scan Dead-Ends: If you cancel your subscription or receive a refund, your previously printed dynamic QR codes will not abruptly stop working or display broken-link error screens to customers.
  • Fallback Routing: Active codes keep sending people to the last link you set.
  • 30-Day Advance Archival Notice: If an account downgrade requires archiving excess dynamic codes beyond the free Starter allowance, you will receive at least 30 days of written email notice before any inactive links are transitioned, giving you full control over your physical collateral.
  • Asset Ownership: Any high-resolution raster or vector files (PNG, SVG, JPG, WebP) generated and downloaded during your active subscription remain yours to keep and use forever.

4. Plan-Specific Cancellation & Refund Guidelines

A. Starter Tier (Free Forever)

The Starter plan includes 10 active dynamic QR codes, 500 scans per month, and 30-day analytics at zero cost forever. No credit card is collected, and no charges are incurred.

B. Pro & Business Monthly Subscriptions

Monthly subscriptions are billed in advance every 30 days. You may cancel at any time from your account settings. If cancelled within the first 14 days of a billing cycle, you are eligible for a full refund upon request. If cancelled after 14 days, your service remains active until the end of that current paid monthly cycle, and no further automatic renewals will occur.

C. Pro & Business Annual Subscriptions

Annual subscriptions offer significant savings (up to 20%) and are billed as a single upfront charge covering 12 months. If you request a cancellation within 14 calendar days of your initial purchase or annual renewal, you will receive a 100% full refund. For cancellation requests submitted after the initial 14 days, your subscription will remain active with full access through the conclusion of the 12-month period, and auto-renewal will be disabled.

D. Enterprise Custom Agreements

Enterprise plans with custom scan allowances and custom Master Services Agreements (MSAs) are governed by the specific cancellation and SLA terms negotiated in the executed enterprise contract.

5. Non-Refundable Circumstances & Exceptions

To prevent fraudulent misuse and ensure platform integrity, refunds cannot be granted under the following circumstances:

  • Acceptable Use Policy Violations: Accounts terminated, suspended, or restricted due to deceptive redirection, phishing, malware delivery, fraudulent financial schemes, unsolicited spam campaigns, or illegal content strictly forfeit all refund eligibility.
  • Requests After 14 Days: Refund requests submitted after the 14-calendar-day guarantee window has lapsed are not eligible for retroactive refunds, though recurring billing will be stopped immediately upon cancellation.
  • Physical Print & Manufacturing Costs: ZetaQR provides vector files (SVG) and image files (PNG/JPG/WebP) with print-dimension guidelines and Level H error correction. However, ZetaQR is a software platform and cannot reimburse physical printing, packaging, billboard, or material costs incurred through third-party vendors.
  • Custom Engineering Fees: One-time onboarding setup fees or dedicated custom engineering services contracted for enterprise accounts are non-refundable once work has commenced.

  2. Navigate to Workspace Settings > Billing & Subscriptions.
  3. Click Manage Plan and select Cancel Subscription.
  4. Confirm your selection. Your subscription will not renew, and you will retain full access until the end of your current paid billing period.

8. Payment Gateways, Currency & Chargebacks

All ZetaQR billing transactions are handled via PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant payment gateways. Refunds are always executed in the original currency of the transaction. If your local bank applies foreign exchange or conversion fees, those fees are dictated by your financial institution.

Direct Support vs. Bank Chargebacks

If you notice an unexpected charge or need to request a refund, please contact us directly at [email protected] before opening a bank dispute. Resolving a request directly with our support team takes 1–2 business days, whereas credit card chargeback investigations typically take 45 to 90 days to settle through financial networks.

Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Refunds

Direct, accurate answers to the most common billing, cancellation, and refund questions.

We understand that reprinting physical signage, menus, and product packaging is costly.

No. Accounts terminated or suspended due to violations of our Acceptable Use Policy (for example phishing, malware, deceptive redirects, scams or illegal content) aren't eligible for any refund or fee reimbursement.
