1. Policy Overview
Listifys connects independent buyers and sellers. Refund and cancellation rights depend on the agreement between users, payment method used, and mandatory consumer laws in your region.
1-1Intermediary Role
Unless a Listifys payment protection or managed checkout feature explicitly applies to your transaction, refunds are primarily arranged between buyer and seller.
Listifys may assist with disputes but does not guarantee refund outcomes for off-platform payments.
1-2Related Policies
This policy should be read with our Buyer Policy, Seller Policy, Payment Terms, and Dispute Resolution Policy.
2. Order Cancellations
2-1Before Payment
Either party may withdraw from negotiations before payment is made without a platform cancellation fee, though repeated frivolous cancellations may affect account metrics.
2-2After Payment — Mutual Agreement
Buyers and sellers may agree to cancel a completed payment before item handover or shipment. Sellers should issue refunds through the original payment method when possible.
2-3Seller Cancellation
Sellers should not cancel confirmed sales without legitimate reason such as item damage, loss, legal restriction discovery, or buyer fraud risk.
Unjustified seller cancellations may lead to visibility penalties or account restrictions.
2-4Buyer Cancellation
Buyers requesting cancellation after payment must obtain seller consent unless mandatory consumer withdrawal rights apply.
3. Refund Eligibility
3-1Material Misrepresentation
Refunds may be warranted when an item is materially not as described, counterfeit where authenticity was claimed, or missing essential components not disclosed in the listing.
3-2Non-Delivery
If a seller fails to deliver or make an item available for agreed pickup within a reasonable period, buyers may request a full refund.
3-3Damaged in Transit
When shipping is involved, refunds or partial refunds may be appropriate if damage occurred in transit and was not caused by buyer mishandling, subject to proof and carrier claims.
3-4Excluded Situations
Refunds are generally not available for:
- Buyer remorse where the item matches the listing and consumer law does not provide a withdrawal right
- Items damaged after buyer acceptance
- Prohibited items or transactions that violated Listifys policies
- Payments made off-platform without Listifys protection features
4. Listifys Payment Protection
4-1Eligible Transactions
Where Listifys offers payment protection or escrow-style checkout, eligibility criteria, time limits, and documentation requirements are displayed at checkout.
4-2Filing a Claim
Submit claims through in-app dispute tools within the stated window, typically within forty-eight (48) to seventy-two (72) hours of delivery or scheduled pickup.
Include photos, message history, tracking numbers, and a clear explanation of the issue.
4-3Resolution Outcomes
Outcomes may include full refund, partial refund, return and refund, or claim denial based on evidence and policy compliance.
5. Returns and Restocking
5-1Return Shipping
Unless required otherwise by law or a Listifys program, return shipping costs are negotiated between buyer and seller or allocated per dispute outcome.
5-2Item Condition on Return
Returned items should be in the same condition as received, ordinary wear excepted, and include accessories represented in the listing.
5-3Restocking Fees
Business sellers may charge reasonable restocking fees only where clearly disclosed before purchase and permitted by law.
6. Refunds of Listifys Platform Fees
6-1Listing and Promotion Fees
Listing and promotion fees are generally non-refundable once the promotion period begins, except where required by law or where a listing was removed due to a Listifys error.
6-2Transaction Fees
If a protected transaction is fully refunded through Listifys tools, associated transaction fees may be reversed according to the fee schedule in effect at the time of sale.
7. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
7-1Bank Chargebacks
Buyers may initiate chargebacks with their payment provider independently of Listifys. Sellers must respond with documentation when payment processors request evidence.
7-2Duplicate Recovery
Users may not recover the same amount through both a Listifys dispute refund and a successful chargeback for the same transaction.
8. Regional Consumer Rights
8-1India
Consumers in India may have rights to remedies for defective goods, deficient services, and misleading advertisements under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and applicable e-commerce rules.
Mandatory rights cannot be waived by seller policies that conflict with law.
8-2European Union and United Kingdom
Distance contracts with business sellers may include a fourteen (14) day withdrawal right for many goods, subject to exceptions for customized items, perishables, and sealed goods opened after delivery.
8-3United States
State lemon laws, UDAP statutes, and card network rules may provide additional remedies beyond this policy.
9. Processing Timelines
9-1Seller-Initiated Refunds
Sellers should issue agreed refunds within five (5) business days unless a longer period is required by the payment processor.
9-2Listifys-Mediated Refunds
Approved refunds through Listifys payment tools are typically processed within five (5) to ten (10) business days depending on banks and payment networks.
