Last updated: January 13, 2026
At Resolution Roaster, we are committed to providing a high-quality service. This Refund Policy outlines the circumstances under which refunds may be issued.
Important Notice
We do not offer refunds for change of mind, dissatisfaction with features, or if you simply decide you no longer wish to use the service. Please review our features and try the free Spark plan before subscribing to a paid plan.
1. Subscription Cancellation
You can cancel your subscription at any time through your account Settings page. When you cancel:
- You will retain access to all paid features until the end of your current billing period
- Your subscription will not automatically renew
- No partial refunds are provided for unused time in your current billing period
- Your data will be preserved and you can resubscribe at any time

Refunds are only issued in the following circumstances:

To qualify, you must first contact our support team and allow us the opportunity to resolve the issue. Refunds are not issued for issues caused by your device, internet connection, or third-party software.
2.2 Duplicate Charges
If you were charged multiple times for the same subscription period due to a technical error, we will refund the duplicate charges in full.

If you were charged incorrectly (wrong amount, charged after cancellation, etc.), we will correct the error and issue a refund for any overcharge.
