Refund & Cancellation Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This policy, maintained by TechTipsTool, explains what happens if a project is cancelled or paused after payment.
Before work begins
If you cancel before we have started design or development, the advance is refunded in full, minus any third-party costs already paid on your behalf (domains, licences, stock assets).
After work begins
Once work has started, refunds are calculated on the milestones completed. Work delivered and approved up to the cancellation date is chargeable; the balance of the advance is returned.
Monthly retainers and care plans
Retainers can be cancelled with 15 days' notice before the next billing date. The current month is not refundable, as the hours are already reserved.
Non-refundable items
Third-party purchases, domain and hosting fees, paid plugins or licences, and completed one-off deliverables such as approved designs or published content.
Paused projects
If a project is inactive for more than 60 days due to pending inputs from your side, we may close it and re-quote when you are ready to resume.
How to request a refund
Email hello@techtipstool.com with your invoice number. Approved refunds are processed to the original payment method within 7-10 working days.
