What is the GJW+ refund policy?

Policy
GJW+Subscriptions

GJW+ subscriptions are recurring payments: they renew automatically at the end of each billing term and can be canceled at any time.

According to the Paid Service Terms, all payments for Paid Services are final and not refundable or exchangeable, except where the Paid Service is defective, or as required by applicable law.

For full details, see the "3. Cancellations and Refunds" section of the Paid Service Terms of Service at https://www.ganjingworld.com/paid-service-terms.

What is not refunded#

  • Remaining days in your current billing period after you cancel — the cancellation takes effect at the end of the period, and no refund or credit is given for the days you do not use.
  • Unused or partially used Paid Services generally — no refunds or credits are provided.
  • Partial subscription periods, including when certain features or benefits are modified or discontinued.
  • Price differences after a price reduction or a promotional offer — there is no price protection.

Exceptions in the Terms#

  • The Paid Service is defective, or a refund is required by applicable law.
  • Videos or features related to your purchases or rentals become inaccessible — you may be eligible for a refund. If one is granted, access to that content is removed.
  • Rentals: if content is removed or becomes unavailable during your rental period, you are entitled to a refund or a reasonable replacement.
  • Purchases: if content becomes removed or unavailable during the first five years after purchase, you are entitled to a pro rata refund or a reasonable replacement.

How refunds are processed#

An approved refund is returned to the original payment method used for the purchase. How long it takes to appear on your statement depends on your bank or card provider. If a refund is granted for content, access to that content or paid service is removed.

Avoiding unwanted renewal charges#

If you do not want your subscription to renew, cancel it before your current term expires:

  • Sign in to the account used to purchase the subscription.
  • Click your avatar in the upper right corner and select "Purchases & Subscriptions".
  • Click "Cancel Subscription" on your plan, then confirm on the cancellation page.

You can also use the direct link https://www.ganjingworld.com/me/premium_subscription. Canceling stops future billing, and you keep access until the end of the current term.

Info

If you believe your situation qualifies for an exception, contact Customer Service through the Help Center at https://help.ganjingworld.com/hc with your billing details — the invoices for your plan can be viewed and downloaded from the "Invoices" section of the Subscriptions tab.
