Each individual gift/contribution to the Member is available for redemption after a 72-hour waiting period. For more information on gift/contribution redemption policies please see "Common Questions".


• Gift/Contribution Refunds
  Upon the completion of a gift/contribution given to a SimpleRegistry Member, there is no refund immediately possible. SimpleRegistry has sole discretion to determine the validity and response of a return/cancellation request.

• Disputed Gift/Contribution(s)
  If a gift/contribution giver disputes a valid charge from SimpleRegistry and the Member in question still has the disputed gift/contribution(s) as part of their current balance, the value of the gift/contribution along with a $30.00 chargeback fee will be deducted from said Member balance. If the Member has no current balance, the disputed amount plus chargeback fee will be held back from any future gift/contributions they may receive. SimpleRegistry LLC will contact the gift/contribution giver in an effort to rectify any situation involving a disputed gift/contribution(s).


• Closing Your Account
