SmartShop Cloud POS Subscription Refund Policy: We provide a 7-Day Free Trial with 100% full features unlocked so you can thoroughly evaluate the system before making payment. Because of this complete trial period, no refunds are provided once a subscription plan or add-on is purchased.
7-Day Return Guarantee for Physical Products: If a physical merchant item arrives damaged, defective, or significantly different from description, you are eligible for a replacement or money refund under our merchant return terms.
At SmartShop.lk, we maintain clear, transparent commercial terms for both our cloud SaaS software subscriptions and independent merchant storefront purchases across Sri Lanka.
1. Cloud POS Software Subscriptions (Strict No Refund Policy)
To ensure complete confidence before paying, SmartShop gives every prospective business owner an unrestricted 7-Day Free Trial with access to all software features (Fast Thermal POS cashiering, FEFO batch & expiry tracking, inventory replenishment, online storefront, staff payroll, and automated SMS notifications).
- Full Features Trial Evaluation: The 7-day trial is 100% free with zero installation fees, zero hidden setup costs, and no credit card required. This provides ample opportunity to test hardware compatibility (thermal printers, barcode scanners) and daily operational workflows.
- Strict No Refunds After Payment: Because all features are freely available to test during the 7-day trial period, all payments for SmartShop SaaS subscriptions (monthly, annual, multi-store add-ons, or custom sender IDs) are strictly non-refundable and non-creditable.
- Subscription Cancellation: You may cancel or choose not to renew your subscription at any time. Your account will remain active until the end of your prepaid billing period, with no subsequent charges.
