Refund Policy

Last updated 27 September 2026

This document is an unfinished template.

It still contains placeholders in square brackets and has not been reviewed by a lawyer. It is a starting point, not legal advice, and should be completed and checked by a professional before it is relied on.

Your rights come first

Nothing in this policy limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. You are always entitled to a repair, replacement or refund if what we sold you:

  • does not do what we said it would do;
  • has a problem that would have stopped you buying it had you known; or
  • is significantly different from the description you were shown.

If the problem is major, you choose between a refund or a replacement. If it is minor, we may choose to fix it instead.

This policy explains how we handle refunds beyond those guarantees.

Digital goods delivered immediately

A licence key is a digital product delivered as soon as your payment is confirmed. Once a key has been redeemed, it is permanently bound to your Discord account and your Macho Authentication Key and cannot be reissued or resold.

For that reason:

  • Before you redeem: if you have bought a key and have not redeemed it, contact us and we will generally refund it.
  • After you redeem: we generally cannot refund, because the product has been fully delivered and consumed. Your Australian Consumer Law rights still apply.

When we will refund

  • The key you were issued does not work and we cannot fix it.
  • You were charged more than once for the same order.
  • You were charged for an order that was never fulfilled.
  • The product is materially different from what was described at checkout.
  • You bought the wrong duration and have not yet redeemed the key.

When we will not refund

  • You have changed your mind after redeeming the key.
  • Your licence expired normally after running its full duration.
  • Your licence was revoked because you breached the Terms of Service, for example by sharing or reselling a key.
  • Your setup is incompatible in a way that was described before purchase.
  • A third-party platform or game changed, or took action against your account there. Please read section 4 of the Terms of Service before buying.
  • You cannot provide the order reference or the Discord account the order was made from.

Chargebacks

Please contact us before raising a chargeback — most problems are quicker to fix directly. Raising a chargeback while an order is being investigated will suspend the associated licence until the matter is resolved.

How to request a refund

  1. Open a ticket in our Discord server, or email [CONTACT EMAIL].
  2. Include your order reference code and the Discord account used to buy.
