Refund & Returns Policy

Website City provides bespoke digital services including website development, hosting, consultancy, and crowdfunding support. Because our work is tailored to each client and services are delivered in advance or on an ongoing basis, our refund policy is as follows:

Bespoke services (websites, consultancy, audits, integrations)

• All bespoke services are non-refundable once work has commenced, as they are carried out specifically for your business.

• Deposits and milestone payments are also non-refundable.

Hosting, domains, and maintenance

• Hosting, domain registration, and maintenance fees are payable in advance and are non-refundable.

• If you choose to cancel your service, it will remain active until the end of the paid period, after which it will not renew.

Crowdfunding & donations

• Contributions made through our crowdfunding platform (e.g. for website or service costs) are non-refundable. These payments are considered final donations toward the agreed goal.

Online purchases (if applicable)

• For any off-the-shelf digital products or pre-defined services offered online, refunds are only available where required by UK consumer law.

Exceptional circumstances

• Refunds outside of this policy may be considered only at the discretion of Website City, but no guarantee is made.
