Refund & Withdraw Fund

Difference between Refund and Withdraw Fund

As we are using virtual account which is more similar to your bank debit account, we treat refund and withdraw fund differently.

Refund: Sometimes we may say it as Cost Return. It happens when you have placed an order, and the cost/fund is going to be returned to your member account on FreeShoppingChina.com due to some reason, for example, you want to cancel the order, the order is invalid, or the product item is having something wrong. The refunded money will only be returned to your member account on FreeShoppingChina.com.

Withdraw Fund: Very similar to debit card, you can get all the balance in your member account transferred to you by cash or in other form. This happens when you have finished shopping on FreeShoppingChina.com and there is still balance inside. If you do not want the balance to be kept in member account on FreeShoppingChina.com, you can withdraw it.

Refund Conditions

You can be refunded only in the following conditions:

1. The order with status "pending" or "Invalid". You can cancel the order by yourself and the cost will be returned to your account.

2. The order is conducted and the product item is damaged or having other issue when it’s arrived in our office and it should be returned. If the item is having big issue, we will return it to seller for change directly. If it's a minor issue, we will send you message and you can determine if you want to make a change or just return it. If you want to return it, we will refund as long as we receive the fund from seller. However, we do not take any responsibility of any lost (including domestic shipping fee) in this process. Also, we do not charge service fee for those inferior products/orders.

3. Incorrect items bought by FreeShoppingChina.com or damaged items you receive (Fragile items are not included here). You need to fill a claim on this case to get the items returned and the cost returned to your member account. For more details, please refer to Return Policy.

If the cost is larger than the balance amount, we would not transfer the money as it's senseless. If you have any other ideas, please contact us for better solution.
