Refund Policy
Counsel-review draft. Last updated August 28, 2026.
Read this first
- Every verified payment buys advertising — not a lottery ticket.
- No automatic refund if you get outspent or the tattoo reserve is missed.
- The tattoo is an extra prize for #1 only if the reserve and approvals are met.
- We can refuse logos/designs. Payment does not force refused content.
- Chargebacks and disputes remove money from the ranking immediately.
Counsel-review draft. These pages describe how the campaign works and how we protect the operator and the advertising product. They are not a substitute for advice from a licensed lawyer in your jurisdiction.

1. Default rule
Contributions buy advertising. Once advertising has begun — meaning your payment is verified and your listing can appear on the Site — contributions are generally FINAL, subject only to mandatory consumer law and the payment provider’s rules.
2. No refund because…
You are NOT entitled to a refund because:
• another advertiser outranks you
• the campaign does not reach the tattoo reserve
• the tattoo is not performed (reserve missed, design refused, winner payment invalidated, etc.)
• your logo is pending, rejected, or replaced with a placeholder
• you change your mind after a verified payment
• you expected more traffic, press, or virality than you got
• PayPal or your bank charged FX fees
3. When we may refund
The operator may issue a full or partial refund at the operator’s sole discretion, including for:
• clear duplicate charges
• confirmed fraud against you
• inability to deliver the advertising listing at all
• legal or compliance requirements
A refund, dispute win, or chargeback removes those funds from the ranking immediately.
4. Chargebacks and disputes
If you open a chargeback or dispute after receiving advertising delivery, we may contest it with evidence of the advertising purchase. Disputed or charged-back amounts do not count as verified contributions. Repeated chargeback abuse may result in ban and forfeiture of listings.
5. Pending payments
Pending / processing / unverified manual transfers are not advertising delivery yet. If they never clear, they never count and you are not owed a ranking or tattoo based on them.
6. How to ask
Contact the operator with your payment reference. Refund requests do not pause the campaign or freeze other advertisers’ ranks.
