REFUND

Refund And Fulfillment Policy

The refund policy distinguishes unpaid cancellation, paid-order refunds, on-site SIM activation results, and customer device or information issues.

Updated: 2026-08-13

Physical SIM Reservations

An unpaid order may be cancelled. For a paid order with no final processing result, the customer may select a reason, leave a note, and request a full-order refund on the secure order page. Submission places the order under refund review and pauses Order Voucher delivery or resend, further fulfillment, and final-result entry. If GCSL approves the request, the system automatically refunds the order's remaining refundable paid amount through Stripe to the original payment method in the original payment currency. If rejected, the order page shows the review explanation and fulfillment resumes when it is safe to do so. Full-order refund requests close once final results are recorded.

A no-show, withdrawal before processing, passport mismatch, activation failure, or any other result where the SIM was not handed over does not exclude that failed SIM from refund. After all results are complete, failed SIMs default to one combined refund per order at the actual paid unit amount and original payment currency. An administrator may adjust that partial refund within the order's remaining refundable balance; the system keeps an immutable record of the calculated amount, amounts before and after adjustment, currency, reason, actor, time, and result version. Successfully activated and handed-over SIMs are excluded.

Pickup Exceptions

If a pickup point cannot process the order, hours change, or an on-site or related service-party issue prevents pickup, keep the on-site information and contact support.

Support will verify the order status and on-site result and assess the currently available options. Eligible orders are refunded under this policy.

Processing Time

Self-service actions on the order page use a secure order access credential. If access is lost, recovery requires the public order number and checkout email; an issue description can be added when contacting support. Refunds return to the original payment method, and the order page is the source for the processing status.

After the payment provider confirms a refund, posting by the bank or card issuer can still be delayed. Contact support if the order page says assistance is required.

GCSL is the entity responsible for refund decisions, refund processing, and after-sales service under this policy. It issues eligible refunds through Stripe to the original payment method; Stripe provides the payment-processing channel, while airport and other on-site service points do not independently decide or assume responsibility for refunds or after-sales service.
