Refund Policy
Last updated: August 2026
14-day money-back guarantee
If you are not satisfied with a paid Scauthor plan (Plus, Lab, or Institution) within 14 days of your initial purchase, we will give you a full refund — no questions asked.
1. Eligibility for refund
You are eligible for a full refund if:
- Your refund request is submitted within 14 days of your initial subscription payment; and
- You have not previously received a refund for a Scauthor subscription.
Refund requests submitted after 14 days will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
2. How to request a refund
Email support@scauthor.com with the subject line "Refund Request" and include:
- The email address associated with your account;
- The date of your subscription payment;
- A brief reason for the request (optional).
We aim to confirm and process refunds within 5 business days.
3. Cancellation
Cancelling your subscription stops future billing but does not automatically trigger a refund. To receive a refund within the guarantee period, you must explicitly request one as described above. After cancellation, paid access continues until the end of the current billing period.
4. Renewals
Refunds are not provided for subscription renewals unless requested within 7 days of the renewal charge and you have not materially used paid-only features during that renewed period.
5. Processing
Refunds are processed through our payment provider to the original payment method. Depending on your bank or card issuer, it typically takes 5–10 business days to appear on your statement.
6. Contact
