Refund Policy
Last updated: June 2026
This page explains when refunds may apply on SEI and how the refund process works.
When refunds may apply
Refunds may apply when a paid bulk-buy campaign cannot be fulfilled, when a campaign is cancelled by an admin, or in specific cases agreed with support after a paid order.
Failed campaign refunds
If a campaign is marked as failed because it cannot meet its target or supplier conditions, every paid order on the campaign is added to the refund queue automatically.
Cancelled campaign refunds
If an admin cancels a campaign, unpaid orders on that campaign are cancelled and paid orders are queued for refund.
Paid order refunds
For individual paid orders, students should contact support with their order ID and the reason. An admin will review the request and create a refund record if it is approved.
Manual refund processing
Refunds are processed manually during the beta period. We do not auto-trigger bank refunds yet. Each refund follows the lifecycle: requested → approved → processed (or rejected).
Refund timelines
Approved refunds are typically processed within a few business days. Bank settlement times depend on Paystack and the receiving bank.
Refund status tracking
You can see the status and reason for any refund tied to your order on the order detail page.
Non-refundable cases
Refunds do not apply once an order is marked delivered, when a student fails to collect within the agreed window, or where the student abandoned an unpaid order (which is simply cancelled rather than refunded).
How to contact support
Visit the Help & Support page and include your order ID, the campaign name and a short description of what happened.
