Refund Policy:
Edukliks strives to offer transparency regarding its refund policy for paid services. Below are the conditions under which refunds may or may not apply, depending on the nature of the service:
3.1 Non-Refundable Services:
Certain services begin immediately upon payment, and as such, are non-refundable. This includes, but is not limited to:
University Application Process: Once payment for university applications has been made and we have begun processing the application (i.e., document submission, correspondence with the university, etc.), this service is non-refundable.
Visa Processing: Payments for visa assistance are also non-refundable once Edukliks has begun the visa application process, as administrative costs are incurred immediately.
3.2 Refundable Services (Under Specific Conditions):
Refunds will be offered for certain services if they have not yet commenced. This includes:
Hostel or Accommodation Arrangements: If we have not yet begun contacting hostels or booking accommodation, and no financial commitments have been made, you are eligible for a refund.
Other Premium Services: Any other services for which Edukliks has not yet started work can be refunded upon request.
3.3 Refund Request Process:
Timeline for Refund Requests: Refund requests must be submitted within 14 days of the payment date.
Case-by-Case Evaluation: Each refund request will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Factors such as the commencement of the service and any third-party fees will be taken into consideration.
Refund Method: If a refund is approved, it will be processed through the same method used for payment (credit card, bank transfer, etc.). Depending on the payment provider, refunds may take up to 10 business days to be credited back to your account.
Account Termination:
4.1. Edukliks Rights: Edukliks reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate any of the platform’s policies, including but not limited to misrepresentation of personal details, misuse of the platform, or failure to comply with payment obligations.
