1. Overview

Funtoosh is an anonymous Q&A, confession and chat platform made in India. We operate on a service-delivery model: refunds are issued only when a paid service could not be delivered to you. Once a service has been successfully delivered (a Golden Card accepted, a paid message delivered, a call minute completed, Funtoosh Plus activated, an ad approved), no refund is applicable.

This policy is in line with the Information Technology Act, 2000, the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, and guidelines from RBI and our payment gateway (PayGlocal).

2. Golden Card Refunds 🪙

A Golden Card is a paid identity-reveal offer you send to someone who answered your question (or vice-versa). The rules are:

⏳ The 7-Day Waiting Rule

  • When you send a Golden Card, the platform deducts the amount (plus 18% GST) from your wallet and holds it in escrow for 15 days (5 days when the receiver is a Funtoosh Plus member).
  • During this window the receiver (the answer author) can either accept or reject the card.
  • If receiver rejects the card → 100% of your card amount including the GST charged is refunded back to your Deposit wallet instantly.
  • If the card expires (no action taken by receiver within the window) → 100% of your card amount including GST is automatically refunded to your Deposit wallet. This is the only scenario where a refund is auto-processed without any user action.
  • If the receiver accepts the card → the service has been delivered. BOTH users' identities are revealed to each other platform-wide and a permanent connection is created. NO REFUND is possible after this point, regardless of subsequent behavior, unmatches, blocks, or disputes.

You cannot cancel or recall a Golden Card once sent — the receiver has a fair 7-day window to decide, and once accepted the mutual identity reveal is an irreversible premium service.

3. Wallet Top-ups

  • Funds added to your Funtoosh Wallet via UPI, cards, or net banking are held in a closed-loop digital wallet as per RBI norms.
  • Wallet balance is non-refundable to source (UPI/bank) in normal course — you can only spend it on platform services (Golden Cards, paid chat, calls, Funtoosh Plus, ads, shop) or withdraw earned amounts (not added amounts).
  • Deposit balance (money you added yourself) can be used for Golden Cards, paid chat, calls, Funtoosh Plus, ads and shop orders — but it cannot be cashed back to your bank account.
  • Only Earnings balance (money received via accepted Golden Cards, paid chat, calls or suggestions, after commission) can be withdrawn to your UPI after KYC.
  • In the extremely rare event of a double-charge or failed payment where money was debited but wallet not credited, we will reverse the amount within 7 working days.

4. Earnings & Withdrawals

  • Once an earning is credited to your Earnings wallet (after a Golden Card you received was accepted), it is final — there is no clawback from other users' disputes.
  • Withdrawal requests once approved and processed to your UPI cannot be reversed or refunded.
  • If a withdrawal request is rejected (e.g. failed UPI ID, KYC mismatch), the amount is returned to your Earnings wallet and you can submit a fresh request.

5. Funtoosh Plus, Paid Chat, Calls & Ads

  • Funtoosh Plus is a monthly, pay-from-wallet subscription that does not auto-renew. It is non-refundable from the moment it is activated; no pro-rata refund for unused days.
  • Paid chat messages: the per-message amount (shown before you send) is held in escrow when you press Send and released to the creator when they reply. If there is no reply within 7 days, the hold is refunded to your wallet automatically. Once replied to, a message is a delivered service and is not refunded.
  • Audio/video calls are billed per minute; completed minutes are not refunded. If a call drops because of a Funtoosh-side fault, write to support with the time of the call.
  • Ads rejected during review are refunded to your wallet in full; an ad that has been approved and shown is not refundable.

6. Promotional Credits

  • Promo codes, referral bonuses, admin credits, or any free balance issued by Funtoosh carry no cash value and are non-refundable, non-withdrawable, non-transferable.
  • They can only be spent on platform services as per promo terms and expire if unused.

7. Scenarios Where NO Refund is Given

  • Golden Card accepted by the receiver — identity reveal is irreversible.
  • Paid messages delivered, call minutes completed, confession suggestions delivered.
  • Funtoosh Plus already activated, ads already approved.
  • Wallet top-up that has already been partially or fully spent on platform services.
  • Expired promo codes or promotional credits.
  • Voluntary account deletion — all balances are forfeited upon deletion.
  • Loss of access due to violation of Community Guidelines or Terms of Service (ban/suspension).
  • Mistaken payments to wrong user or wrong amount — users are responsible for reviewing amounts before confirming.

8. Failed / Tampered Payments

PayGlocal, our payment gateway, may occasionally mark a payment as failed, pending, or tampered. If your bank/UPI account was debited but your Funtoosh wallet was not credited, please share your PayGlocal transaction ID (shown on the payment result page / bank statement) with support. We will reconcile with PayGlocal and credit the wallet within 7 working days — no need to file a bank chargeback.
