- ◆Refunds are not available if you participated in discovery or strategy calls, as this constitutes work
Refunds for Project-Based Work
Most projects follow a 50% deposit and 50% final payment structure.
Deposit — Non-Refundable After Work Starts
Once work begins on your project, the deposit is non-refundable. Work beginning includes strategy sessions, design mockups, content research, code development, or any deliverable creation.
Cancellation Mid-Project
- ◆You are charged for 100% of work completed to date
- ◆A final invoice will be issued with itemized work completed
- ◆You may receive partial deliverables if available; otherwise all materials revert to us
Unsatisfactory Work
If deliverables do not meet the agreed specifications, you have 7 days after delivery to report issues. We will provide unlimited revisions to meet original specifications. If we cannot meet specifications, we offer a full refund of the final payment only — the deposit remains non-refundable.
Refunds for Monthly Subscriptions
Monthly plans renew on the same date each month. Each month is a separate billing period.
Cancellation
- ◆Provide 30 days written notice before your next billing date
- ◆Email Contact@alhijaz.agency with Cancellation Notice in the subject line
- ◆Services continue until the end of your current billing cycle
Prorated Refunds
No refunds are issued for the current month if you cancel mid-month. You can use services through your billing date, and the next renewal will not be charged if proper notice was given.
Multi-Month Discount Example
3-month plan at $4,995 works out to $1,665 per month. If cancelled after 1 month: refund equals 2 months multiplied by $1,665, totalling $3,330.
Refunds for Advertising Campaigns
Ad Spend — Never Refundable
Actual ad spend is not refundable once ads are live. You paid for impressions, clicks, and audience reach that have already occurred. Ad platforms do not refund spent budgets and neither can we.
Management and Setup Fees
- ◆If ads have not launched and you cancel: setup and management fees may be refunded
- ◆If ads are live: management fees are non-refundable
Optimization Guarantee
If your campaign underperforms initial projections, we provide free optimization and A/B testing, revise strategy and targeting at no additional cost, and continue working with you until performance improves for the duration of your service agreement.
Refunds for Design Services
Revision Policy
Unlimited revisions are included until the design is approved. Once you approve and sign off, revisions are charged at $75 per hour. Major conceptual changes after approval are treated as new projects.
No Refunds for Approved Designs
Once you approve a design in writing, no refunds are available regardless of later changes in direction or preference.
Design Disagreement
If we cannot reach agreement on a design direction, you may cancel and receive a refund of 50% of the design fee. We retain the right to use design elements in our portfolio in anonymized form, and all design files remain our intellectual property.
Special Circumstances and Exceptions
Force Majeure
In cases of unforeseen circumstances beyond our control such as natural disasters, internet outages, or key team member illness, we may offer partial refunds for incomplete work, extend timelines at no additional cost, or work with you on alternative solutions.
Company Error or Negligence
If we fail to deliver due to our error or negligence, we will provide free corrective work first. If correction is not possible, a refund limited to the cost of that specific deliverable may be issued.
Disputed Work Completion
If there is disagreement about whether work is completed, the refund will be held in escrow pending dispute resolution. Both parties meet to review deliverables against original specifications.
Refund Processing

Submit Email Request
