1. Scope of this Policy
This Policy applies to:
- Purchases of virtual credits ("Credits") through the Service;
- Optional one-time paid features, where offered;
- Credit entry requirements paid with Credits;
- Any other paid transaction processed through BaseballFantasy.
It does not apply to (a) credits awarded as promotions or gifts, which are governed by the specific terms of the promotion, or (b) goods or services purchased from third parties through links or integrations on the Service.
2. Nature of the Product You Are Buying
Credits are virtual, non-monetary units that exist only within the Service. They have no cash value, are not redeemable for cash, gift cards, or other monetary instruments, and are made available to you immediately upon completion of your purchase. By purchasing Credits, you acknowledge that you are receiving access to digital content that begins performance immediately, and you may lose certain statutory rights of withdrawal once you have used any portion of those Credits (see Section 5 below).
3. When Refunds Are Available
We will issue a refund in the following circumstances, subject to the other terms of this Policy:
3.1 Duplicate or erroneous charges
If you are charged more than once for the same purchase, or if you were charged for a purchase you did not authorize and we confirm this through our investigation, we will refund the duplicate or unauthorized amount in full.
3.2 Technical errors on our side
If a confirmed technical issue caused by us prevented you from receiving the Credits you purchased, or prevented you from using them as intended within a reasonable period, we will either re-deliver the Credits or refund the affected amount.
3.3 Cancelled contests with no replacement scoring window
If you entered a credit-entry contest that we then cancel without offering an equivalent replacement (for example, because all underlying real-world games are cancelled), we will refund the credit entry requirement in Credits to your account balance, in line with the specific contest rules. We may, in our discretion, offer a cash refund instead of Credits where the cancellation is attributable solely to us.
3.4 Statutory rights
Nothing in this Policy is intended to limit any non-waivable consumer-protection rights that apply to you. Where mandatory law provides you with statutory rights of withdrawal, refund, or cancellation that exceed those provided in this Policy, those statutory rights prevail.
4. When Refunds Are NOT Available
Except as required by applicable law, we do not offer refunds for:
- Credits that have been used, in whole or in part, to enter a contest or unlock a paid feature;
- Contest losses or unfavorable contest outcomes, regardless of cause (including injury to a player on your lineup, real-world game cancellation that is handled per the contest’s published rules, or weather);
- Failure to set or lock your lineup before the contest lock time;
- Voluntary closure of your account after Credits have been purchased;
- Accounts suspended or terminated for violation of our Terms of Service (including multi-accounting, collusion, bot use, fraud, or other prohibited conduct), in which case all Credit balances are forfeited;
- Promotional, bonus, or referral Credits, which have no cash value and expire per the specific promotion terms;
- Credits transferred or sold in violation of these Terms;
- Purchases more than thirty (30) days old where no other ground for refund under this Policy applies;
- Currency conversion differences or fees imposed by your payment provider.
5. EU/UK 14-Day Cooling-Off Period
If you are a consumer in the European Union or United Kingdom, you have a statutory right to withdraw from your purchase within fourteen (14) days of the transaction without giving any reason. However, because Credits are digital content delivered immediately upon purchase, you expressly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once you begin using the Credits (e.g., by entering a credit-entry contest).
Before receiving purchased Credits immediately, EU and UK consumers will be asked to expressly consent to the immediate supply of the digital content and acknowledge that they may lose their statutory right of withdrawal once they begin using the Credits. If the purchased Credits have not been used, the consumer may exercise the applicable withdrawal right by contacting billing@mybaseballfantasy.com within fourteen days of purchase.
6. How to Request a Refund
To request a refund, please:
- Email billing@mybaseballfantasy.com from the address associated with your account, or open a support ticket from your Account Settings.
- Include the username on your account, the order or transaction ID, the date of the purchase, the amount, the payment method, and a clear explanation of why you are requesting a refund.
- Provide any supporting information (e.g., screenshots of the error you experienced, or correspondence with your bank).
We will acknowledge receipt of your request within two (2) business days and will aim to provide a final decision within ten (10) business days. Complex cases may take longer.
7. Method and Timing of Refunds
Approved refunds are processed back to the original payment method used for the purchase. Where the original payment method is no longer available, we will contact you to agree on another lawful refund method. We will not issue a refund in platform Credits without your consent. We do not issue refunds by cash, check, wire transfer, or cryptocurrency.
Once approved, refunds are typically issued by our payment processor within five (5) business days. The time required for the refund to appear on your statement depends on your bank or payment provider and is outside our control — usually between three (3) and ten (10) additional business days.
8. Taxes, Fees, and Currency
Refunds include any applicable taxes that you paid. Currency conversion fees and other charges levied by your bank or card issuer are not refundable by us. Refunds will be issued in the original transaction currency; exchange-rate differences between the date of purchase and the date of refund are not compensated by us.
9. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
If you have a concern regarding a transaction, please contact billing@mybaseballfantasy.com before initiating a chargeback so that we can attempt to resolve the matter. If a chargeback or payment dispute is submitted, we may temporarily restrict the relevant account while the transaction is investigated. We will provide the payment provider with relevant transaction, account and usage records where necessary. Any account action will be proportionate to the circumstances and taken in accordance with applicable law and payment-provider requirements.
10. Goodwill Refunds
Outside the categories listed above, we may, at our sole discretion, issue goodwill refunds — for example, in cases of clear hardship or customer-experience failures that fall outside the strict categories above. Goodwill refunds do not create any precedent or obligation to do so in future cases.
11. Closing Your Account
You may close your account at any time from your Account Settings or by contacting support@mybaseballfantasy.com. Closing your account does not, by itself, entitle you to a refund of any unused Credit balance. Where applicable law requires us to refund an unused, paid balance upon account closure, we will do so in accordance with that law.
12. Suspected Fraud or Abuse
We monitor refund and chargeback activity for signs of abuse — including pattern refund requests, abuse of promotional offers, and use of fraudulent payment methods. We reserve the right to refuse any refund request that we reasonably believe is abusive, and to take any action permitted under our Terms of Service.
13. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Refund & Return Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by a prominent notice on the Service and update the "Last updated" date above. The Policy in effect at the time of your purchase governs that purchase.
