Refund policy

1. Platform role in refund handling

NextTier is not the direct provider of the underlying seller services or virtual goods listed on the platform. However, NextTier may administer escrow, review disputes, and process refund-related outcomes in accordance with the platform rules.

Refund handling on the platform is procedural and evidence-based. It should not be interpreted as a statement that NextTier itself supplied the underlying seller service.

2. Situations in which refund review may be available

• The order is cancelled before fulfillment.
• The seller fails to deliver the service or goods materially as described.
• The order is only partially completed.
• There is credible evidence of prohibited methods, fraud, or material misconduct by the seller in connection with the order.
• A dispute review concludes that a refund outcome is appropriate under the platform rules.

3. Situations in which a refund may be denied

• The order was delivered substantially in accordance with the selected offer.
• The buyer’s own actions caused or materially contributed to the issue.
• The buyer disrupts fulfillment after the seller has already materially performed.
• The request is based only on later market-price changes.
• The buyer initiates a chargeback before reasonably using the platform support and dispute process, except where prohibited by law.

4. Refund review procedure

To request refund review, the buyer must contact support through the platform channel or designated support email and provide the relevant order information together with supporting evidence.

NextTier may request additional information from the buyer and/or seller before making an escrow or refund-handling decision.

5. Dispute review and evidence

Where the issue cannot be resolved quickly, NextTier may conduct a dispute review based on the materials available, including order records, platform messages, screenshots, timing history, and any other evidence submitted by the parties.

After review, NextTier may administer one of the outcomes available under the platform rules, including:

• no refund;
• partial or proportional refund;
• full refund;
• rescheduling or another procedural solution agreed by the parties.

6. Where refunded funds may be sent

Where a refund outcome is approved, the relevant amount may first be credited to the buyer’s platform balance or otherwise reflected within the platform account environment.

Where supported and requested, the credited amount may later be returned to the original payment method, subject to payment-provider rules, fraud checks, and technical limitations.

7. Processing times

Refund-related processing times depend on the nature of the case, whether dispute review is required, and the payment provider used for the original payment. Any stated timelines are estimates and not guaranteed deadlines.

8. Platform rights during review

NextTier reserves the right to request documents, suspend payouts, retain escrow temporarily during review, and take other reasonable procedural measures necessary to investigate the matter, prevent abuse, and comply with legal or payment-provider obligations.

9. Chargebacks

Buyers are encouraged to contact support before initiating a chargeback. Unjustified or abusive chargebacks may affect account standing, without limiting any mandatory consumer rights under applicable law.
