We've made this Refund Policy available to you so that you can return certain games
when you discover that a game you purchased is unplayable or when your computer does not
support it. If you purchase a game through the Tencent WeGame Platform, you may request
a refund in accordance with this policy. Please note that capitalized terms that aren't
defined in this policy shall have the meanings associated with those terms in the
Subscriber Agreement available at [link].
We want our users to be able to refund games when they honestly need to. However, out
of respect for our game developers, we reserve the right to refuse refunds to those
users who use the refund services maliciously, abusively, or dishonestly, in our sole
discretion.
1. General Refund Rules
You may request a refund via the functionality of the Tencent WeGame Platform.
Eligibility for a refund depends on the type of Game Content and how it was purchased:
(a) Standalone Game Content
When you buy a game that functions on its own with no downloadable content ("DLC"),
such Game Content is only eligible for a refund if:
The game is clearly marked as refundable in the "Game Feature" column of the game's
store page.
The game has been played for less than 2 hours
The game has been purchased within 2 weeks, or for pre-purchase games, it has been
less than 2 weeks since the game's official launch for pre-purchase users.
(b) DLC
When you buy DLC for one of your games, such DLC is only eligible for a refund if the
DLC:
is clearly marked as refundable in the "Game Feature" column of the DLC's store page;
has been played for less than 2 hours; and
has been purchased within 2 weeks, or for pre-purchase games, it has been less than 2
weeks since the game's official launch for pre-purchase users.
(c) Game Bundles
Game bundles (purchases comprising multiple Game Content) are only eligible for a
refund if the bundle:
is refunded entirely (you cannot keep any part of it)
does not contain any non-refundable items
has the longest playtime on any individual Game Content within the bundle less than 2
hours; and
was purchased within 2 weeks, or for pre-purchase bundles, it has been less than 2
weeks since the bundle's official launch for pre-purchase users.
(d) Gifts
When you receive any Game Content as a gift, the gift is only eligible for a refund if
the underlying Game Content of the gift:
is clearly marked as refundable in the "Game Feature" column of the underlying Game
Content's store page;
has been played for less than 2 hours; and
was purchased by the gift-giver within 2 weeks, or for pre-purchase games, it has been
less than 2 weeks since the underlying Game Content's official launch for pre-purchase
users.
Any refund processed for a gift will be refunded back to the gift-giver, not the
recipient.
2. Non-refundable Game Content
The following types of Game Content are explicitly not refundable:
Game Content where the company that provides the Game Content to us has decided not to
offer a refund (Where such Game Content is non-refundable, it will be clearly indicated
in the "Game Feature" column of the Game Content's store page);
Any consumable or upgrade-related DLC (such as power-ups and experience boosts);
Any bundles which include any of the above non-refundable Game Content;
Any items purchased in-game (whether using in-game currency or fiat currency);
Activation codes;
Free-access Game Content; and
Game Content you have been restricted from using, such as through a ban due to
cheating or inappropriate access.
Please note that this list is not exhaustive. If Game Content is not clearly marked as
refundable, it is non-refundable.
3. Refund Process
(a) Running Games. You cannot request a refund on running Game Content. To proceed with
a refund, you must close the Game Content first.
(b) Refund Processing. While your refund is processing for approval, you will not be
able to launch the Game Content. If you cancel your refund request you may resume access
to your Game Content. If your refund is accepted we will revoke your access to the Game
Content.
(c) Refund Status. You may check the status of your refund in "My Assets." The status
of your refund may be one of the following:
"Reviewing" – Our customer service is still reviewing your refund request
"Refund Failed" – Your request has been determined to not meet our refund
requirements. You may contact Tencent customer service for more details.
"Refunded" – Your request has been approved, your refund is being processed, and we
will revoke access to your refunded Game Content. Refunds are estimated to take five
working days to credit back to your original payment method's account, but may take more
or less time depending on your method of payment.
