Refund Policy

BenefitStack charges service-based fees, not outcome-based fees. Payments are for work performed — not for whether a grant gets approved.

Effective: May 2026
01

General Principle

BenefitStack's fee model is aligned with your interests: we charge for services we actually deliver, not for outcomes we cannot control. Government approvals depend on policy, documentation, and discretionary decisions that are outside our control.

We do not charge success fees. If a scheme gets approved, 100% of the funding goes to you.
02

Non-Refundable Services

Fees are non-refundable once the following services have been initiated or delivered:

  • Eligibility report has been generated for your profile
  • Personalised scheme rankings and recommendations have been provided
  • Document checklist or pre-flight checks have been completed
  • Application preparation or professional assignment has begun
  • CA or consultant work has been initiated on your case
Once a service has been rendered, the fee for that service is not refundable — regardless of the government's decision on your application.
03

Refund Eligibility

A full refund may be considered in the following circumstances:

  • Payment was made in error (e.g., duplicate transaction)
  • The purchased service was not initiated within 48 hours of payment
  • A technical failure on our end prevented service delivery
  • The professional assigned to your case withdraws before initiating any work
To request a refund under these circumstances, email legal@benefitstack.in within 7 days of the payment date.
04

Partial Refunds

Partial refunds may be issued at our discretion when:

  • A service was partially completed due to circumstances outside the user's control
  • The agreed scope of work was not fully delivered by the professional
  • Mutual agreement between BenefitStack, the professional, and the user
Partial refund amounts are assessed case-by-case based on work completed.
05

No Refund for Outcomes

No refunds will be issued for:

  • Application rejection by the government or scheme authority
  • Approval of a lower funding amount than expected or shown
  • Delays in government processing, disbursement, or decision-making
  • Changes in scheme eligibility criteria after the service was initiated
  • User-provided data that was inaccurate or incomplete
Government decisions are outside BenefitStack's control. Our service is the guidance and preparation — not the outcome.
06

Refund Timeline

Approved refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 7–10 business days of approval. Bank processing times may add 2–5 additional days depending on your institution.
