Refund Policy

How Drova reviews payment, Credits, box, drop, purchase, and shipping issues.

Last updated: July 3, 2026

This policy is an MVP staging guide for support review. Final legal review is required before public launch.

Overview

Refund requests are reviewed based on payment status, Credit activity, item status, order status, drop status, and system records.

Credits Top-up

  • Top-ups that successfully post Credits are generally final.
  • Duplicate charges, missing Credits, or technical errors may be submitted for review.
  • If Credits have already been used, a payment refund is generally not available.
  • Credits are platform credits and are not a cash balance.

Box Open

  • Once a box is opened and a prize is generated, the open is generally final.
  • Technical failures may be reviewed by support.
  • Prize outcomes are based on system records.
  • Changing your mind after an open does not normally qualify for refund review.

Group Prize Drop Paid Entry

  • A successful Paid Entry is generally final once the entry is recorded.
  • If a drop is canceled, Drova may apply the handling option shown in the drop rules or activity details.
  • If payment succeeds but an entry is not created, contact support for review.
  • Entries included in a completed draw are generally final.

Direct Purchase

  • A Direct Purchase may be reviewed for cancellation before fulfillment begins, depending on order status.
  • After shipping, return or replacement handling depends on the item condition and support review.
  • For damaged or incorrect items, contact support with the order number and photos if available.
  • Stripe payment success does not mean the order has already shipped.

Shipping

  • Shipping requests may enter processing soon after submission.
  • Incorrect or incomplete addresses can cause delays or failed delivery.
  • Tracking information may appear after operations processing.
  • Address-related delivery failures may not qualify for payment refund review.

Sell Back

  • Completed Sell Back decisions are generally final.
  • Sell Back Credits are platform credits and do not reverse the original payment method.
  • Sell Back value may be lower than ARV.
  • Users should review the displayed value before confirming Sell Back.

Failed or Duplicate Payments

  • If a payment fails but appears as pending with your payment provider, it may be released by the provider automatically.
  • If you believe you were charged twice, contact support for review.
  • Drova uses Stripe records and internal PaymentEvent records to reconcile payment issues.
