Services this policy covers
This refund policy covers paid W3SpeedUp digital services sold on w3speedup.com, including Speed Optimization, Boost Organic Traffic, On-Page SEO, Core Web Vitals optimization measured in Google Search Console, and Domain Authority services. It applies to the person or company named on the order. It does not cover free tools, unpaid audits, or work sold by a third party under their own terms.
Refunds are assessed against the deliverable described at checkout or in the signed proposal for that order. If a package mixes services, each component is judged under the rule that applies to it (full refund, Core Web Vitals partial, or Domain Authority partial).
How to request a refund
To request a refund, contact W3SpeedUp through the website contact form or the billing email on your invoice. Include the order number, the site URL we worked on, the service purchased, and why you believe a refund is due. We may ask for Google Search Console or Domain Authority screenshots so we can apply the formulas in this policy.
Do not reverse the charge with your card issuer before you write to us. A chargeback opened while we are still measuring the work can pause the refund review until the dispute is closed.
How refunds are paid and how long they take
Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method used at checkout (card, PayPal, or the processor shown on your receipt). We start the transfer after the review is finished. Bank and card networks usually show the credit within 5 to 15 business days. We do not pay refunds as store credit unless you ask for that in writing and we agree.
If only part of a package qualifies, we refund that part and keep the fee for work that met the stated target.
What is not refundable
The following are not refundable under this policy:
- Third-party costs we pass through (hosting, CDN, premium plugins, ad spend, or domain fees)
- Work you asked us to stop after we had already delivered the agreed files, reports, or live changes
- Delays or score drops caused by hosting, theme, or plugin changes you made after we finished, or by Search Console / Moz data that is stale or blocked
- Free tools, sample audits, and unpaid consultations
- A second refund request on the same order after a full or calculated partial refund has already been paid
If access to Search Console, hosting, or the CMS is withdrawn so we cannot finish or verify the work, the unused portion may be refunded and the used portion is billed as delivered.
Chargebacks and disputes
If you open a chargeback, we will share this policy, the order record, and the score evidence with the payment processor. A chargeback is not a faster refund. We prefer to settle under the formulas above. Fraudulent or duplicate disputes may lead to suspension of remaining work on the account.
Contact for refund questions
Refund questions go to the same team that issued the invoice. Use the contact page on w3speedup.com or the email on your receipt. Driftpoint Technologies Private Limited operates W3SpeedUp and is the merchant of record for these purchases. Name the order number in the subject line so we can match it to the correct project.
Changes to this policy
The date at the top of this page is the last time these terms were updated. The version in force is the one published on this URL when you paid. We do not apply a later rewrite to an order that was already placed, except where the law requires it.
