Refund Policy

EntityArmful OPC, trading as Armful Media

Instroom is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) product. Because access is digital and granted immediately upon payment, our refund policy is specific and limited. Please read it before subscribing to a paid plan.

Section 01

Overview

This Refund Policy explains when and how Armful OPC — a One Person Corporation registered in the Republic of the Philippines, trading as Armful Media and the owner and operator of Instroom ("we," "us," or "our") — issues refunds for payments made for the Instroom platform and its paid features.

We want you to be confident before you pay, which is why Instroom offers a free-forever plan with no time limit and no credit card required. If you run into a genuine problem on a paid plan, please contact our support team first — most issues can be resolved without a refund.

Section 02

Plans & Billing Model

Instroom uses workspace-based billing — you are charged per workspace you own, not per user or seat. Every plan includes unlimited team members.

PlanPriceBilling
BasicFree foreverNo charge, no card required
Solo$19/mo, or $15/mo billed annually ($180/year)Monthly or annual, in advance
Team$49/mo, or $39/mo billed annually ($468/year)Monthly or annual, in advance
AgencyCustomQuoted per agreement
  • The Basic plan is free forever, subject to its usage limits. It is not a trial, nothing expires, and no payment is ever required to keep using it.
  • Paid subscriptions (Solo, Team, Agency) are billed monthly or annually, in advance.
  • Access to paid features begins immediately upon payment.
  • No trial period applies. You can evaluate Instroom on the free plan for as long as you like before deciding to pay.
  • You may cancel at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and you keep access until that date.
Important: Because paid access is granted immediately and our subscriptions are digital services, charges are generally non-refundable once a billing period has begun — except in the specific cases below.
Section 03

Free Plan

The Basic plan is offered at no cost and is not subject to billing or refunds. There are no charges associated with it, and you can use it indefinitely within its limits.

Section 04

Eligible Refund Scenarios

We will issue a refund in the following circumstances:

✓ Eligible

Duplicate Charge

You were charged more than once for the same billing period due to a technical error on our end.

✓ Eligible

Unauthorized Transaction

A charge was made to your payment method without your authorization, and you notify us promptly.

✓ Eligible

Extended Service Outage

The Service was unavailable for more than 72 consecutive hours due to issues on our side — not third-party platforms or scheduled maintenance.

✓ Eligible

Charge After Cancellation

You were billed after a confirmed cancellation had already taken effect.

✓ Eligible

First-Time Subscriber — 7-Day Window

New subscribers who have not previously held a paid Instroom subscription may request a full refund within 7 days of their first charge if unsatisfied.

✓ Eligible

Billing Error

We charged you at an incorrect price due to a pricing error on our platform.

Section 05

Non-Refundable Cases

We do not issue refunds in the following circumstances:

✗ Not eligible

Change of Mind

You no longer wish to use the Service after your billing period has begun, beyond the 7-day new-subscriber window.

✗ Not eligible

Unused Subscription

You paid for a billing period but did not actively use the Service during that time.

✗ Not eligible

Partial-Period Usage

You cancel mid-period. Access continues until the period ends; no prorated refund is issued.

✗ Not eligible

Termination for Violations

Your account was suspended or terminated for a breach of our Terms of Service.

✗ Not eligible

Third-Party Limitations

A feature was affected by Instagram, TikTok, Google, or another third party restricting API access — outside our control.

Section 06

Annual Plans

Annual plans are prepaid for 12 months at a discounted rate (Solo: $15/mo billed annually; Team: $39/mo billed annually).

  • Within the first 7 days: New annual subscribers are eligible for a full refund, consistent with the new-subscriber window.
  • After 7 days: Annual payments are non-refundable. You may cancel renewal at any time and keep access through the end of the paid period.
  • Prorated refunds for the unused portion of an annual plan are not offered, except in the case of a verifiable platform failure or billing error on our side.
Section 07

Companion Tools & Upcoming Features

Instroom offers companion tools alongside the core platform:

  • Chrome Extension — Currently available as a free tool (with a daily usage limit). The free version is not subject to billing or refunds. Any future paid tier will be governed by this policy.
  • Post Tracker and Discovery — Not yet available. When these launch — whether as plan add-ons or standalone products — their pricing and refund terms will be published and governed by this policy (or a successor version).

We will update this policy before any new paid tool or add-on becomes available for purchase.

Section 08

How to Request a Refund

To request a refund, please follow these steps:

1
Contact Support. Email billing@instroom.io with the subject line "Refund Request."
2
Include the Details. Your registered email address, the date and amount of the charge, and the reason for your request.
3
Await Confirmation. We acknowledge requests within 2 business days and communicate a decision within 5 business days.
4
Refund Issued. If approved, the refund is returned to your original payment method within 7–14 business days, depending on your bank or card issuer.
Refund requests must be submitted within 30 days of the charge in question. Requests beyond this window will not be considered, except in cases of fraud or billing error.
Section 09

Processing & Timeline

  • Refunds are issued to the original payment method used for the charge.
  • Processing typically takes 7–14 business days from approval, depending on your bank or card issuer.
  • We do not issue refunds via alternative payment methods, credits to other accounts, or cash.
  • We email you a confirmation once the refund has been initiated on our end.
Section 10

Chargebacks & Disputes

Please contact us before initiating a chargeback with your bank or card provider — most issues are resolved quickly through support, while a chargeback can take much longer.

Filing a chargeback without contacting us first may result in immediate suspension of your account pending investigation. If a chargeback is found to be fraudulent or made in bad faith, we reserve the right to recover the disputed amount and to permanently terminate the associated account.

Section 11

Consumer Rights Under Philippine Law

Nothing in this Refund Policy limits or excludes your statutory rights as a consumer under the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, including the Consumer Act of the Philippines (RA 7394) and related regulations. If you believe your consumer rights have been violated, you may also contact:

  • Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) www.dti.gov.ph
  • National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) — for electronic services disputes

We handle all refund requests in good faith and in compliance with applicable Philippine consumer-protection laws.
