Customers can redeem a maximum of two vouchers per visit per merchant, allowing them to choose different deals from the same merchant if available.

Vouchers are only valid until their expiry date and must be redeemed before that according to the merchant’s terms and conditions.

We have an agreement with all merchants publishing their vouchers on ScoopFun to validate all valid vouchers, but ScoopFun cannot guarantee this. In such cases, customers can report to ScoopFun if a merchant is not validating their published vouchers.

Since customers are paying ScoopFun only part of the voucher price, the maximum refund will be the amount paid minus service/handling charges.

A full refund is possible only if the voucher hasn’t been redeemed and is applicable in cases like store closure or other issues related to redemption.

Once a refund has been requested, vouchers/voucher books will be cancelled from the ScoopFun system. The customer agrees not to attempt to redeem the vouchers while the refund is under process or once approved.

Refunds will be granted in scenarios like store closure, disputes over unused vouchers, customers' unforeseen situations, and inability to redeem the voucher.

4.10 Refund Method

Refunds will be processed using the same method customers used for payment to ScoopFun.

Refund requests must be made in writing from the same email address used in the profile.

From time to time, ScoopFun may run promotions to give away free vouchers or voucher books. No refunds will be provided for these free vouchers or voucher books.

4.15 Refund Amount

The maximum refund provided will be equivalent to the total amount spent on purchasing vouchers, subject to adjustments based on a prorated rate if any vouchers have already been redeemed.
