Refund Policy

1. Introduction

This Refund Policy outlines the terms and conditions regarding refunds and cancellations for services provided by [Company Name] ("we," "our," or "us"). By using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Refund Policy.

Trading in financial markets involves significant risk, and it is important to understand that many of our services are non-refundable due to the nature of financial markets and the immediate execution of most services.

This Refund Policy should be read in conjunction with our Terms and Conditions, which provide a comprehensive understanding of your rights and obligations when using our services.

2. Account Deposit Refunds

We understand that circumstances may arise where you need to request a refund for deposited funds. Our policy regarding account deposits is as follows:

• Unused funds deposited into your trading account can be withdrawn at any time, subject to our verification procedures.
• Refund requests for deposits will generally be processed back to the original payment method used for the deposit.
• Processing times for refunds vary based on the payment method and financial institution involved.

2.2 Refund Eligibility Criteria

2.3 Deposit Refund Timeframes

The processing time for deposit refunds varies depending on the payment method:

• E-wallets: 1-3 business days
• Cryptocurrency: 1-2 business days (plus blockchain confirmation time)

Please note that these timeframes represent our internal processing times. Additional time may be required by your financial institution or payment provider to complete the refund.

3. Trading Losses

3.1 Non-Refundable Trading Losses

Financial trading involves substantial risk. Once you have executed trades on our platform, any resulting losses are not refundable. This applies to all financial instruments offered on our platform, including but not limited to:

• Forex (currency pairs)
• Cryptocurrencies
• Commodities
• Indices
• Stocks (CFDs)

By opening a trading account and executing trades, you acknowledge and accept the inherent risks associated with financial trading and understand that losses resulting from market movements, volatility, or trading decisions are not subject to refunds.

3.2 Exceptional Circumstances

In rare circumstances, we may consider refunds or compensation for trading losses if they were directly caused by:

• Verified technical issues with our trading platform that prevented order execution or modification
• Incorrect price quotes or execution errors caused by our systems
• Unauthorized access to your account (subject to investigation)

Such cases will be reviewed individually, and any decisions will be made at our sole discretion after a thorough investigation. Compensation, if granted, may not cover the full amount of the loss.

3.3 Negative Balance Protection

For retail clients, we offer Negative Balance Protection in accordance with regulatory requirements. This means that your losses cannot exceed the total funds in your trading account. If your account balance becomes negative due to extreme market conditions, we will reset the balance to zero.

Professional clients may not be eligible for Negative Balance Protection, depending on the account type and applicable regulations.

4. Service Fees & Subscriptions

4.1 Trading Fees

Fees related to trading activities, including spreads, commissions, overnight financing (swap rates), and inactivity fees, are generally non-refundable as they represent compensation for services already provided.

However, if you believe you have been charged incorrectly, you may submit a request for review with relevant supporting evidence.

4.2 Subscription Services

We offer various subscription-based services, such as premium market analysis, educational content, and trading signals. Our refund policy for these services is as follows:

• Monthly Subscriptions: No prorated refunds for partial months when cancelling after the billing date
• Annual Subscriptions: Prorated refunds may be considered on a case-by-case basis for the unused portion
• Auto-Renewals: You can cancel auto-renewal at any time, but this will not result in a refund for the current billing period

You may cancel your Copy Trading subscription at any time through your account settings:
