Blend Refund Policy

Effective date: August 8, 2026 · Version: v1.2

The Korean version is the official text. In case of discrepancy, the Korean version prevails.

This Refund Policy is based on and applied together with Article 11 (Withdrawal and Refunds) of the Terms of Service.

Blend Paid Services are recurring subscriptions that auto-renew on your chosen cycle (monthly, 6-month, or yearly). To stop future charges, cancel anytime before the next renewal date; cancellation stops further billing, and you keep access for the period already paid. Payments and refunds are handled by Polar, the Merchant of Record.

1. Full Refund Within 7 Days

Within 7 days of paying for a Paid Service (Pro, Smarter), you may withdraw and receive a full refund regardless of whether you used the Service. Use the "Refund & cancel" button on the Billing screen for instant processing (full refund + Pro ends immediately); the full amount you actually paid (including VAT, after any discounts such as the SNS-share extra discount) is returned to your card (or payment method), typically within 5–10 business days. If instead you want to keep the remaining period and only stop the next charge, use "Cancel subscription" (see Section 5).

2. After 7 Days

• Monthly pass: refunds are restricted; you may continue using the Service for the remaining period.

• 6-month / 1-year pass: you may cancel anytime during the term and receive a refund of the remainder, calculated as below. If the result is negative, no refund is due.

  Refund = Amount paid − (pro-rated days used × standard monthly price)

  The period already used is deducted at the non-discounted standard monthly price, pro-rated by day. In the formula above, "Amount paid" means the amount you actually paid after all discounts, including any SNS-share extra discount.

3. Exchange Rate

Listed prices are in U.S. dollars (USD); the actual billing currency and amount at the time of payment are converted and shown on the payment screen by Polar, the Merchant of Record. Refunds are calculated in the currency and amount you actually paid; exchange rates are not re-applied.

4. Company Fault

If the Service becomes unusable due to the Company's fault, a pro-rated refund for the remaining period is given without deduction.

5. Cancellation, How to Request, and Processing

Cancellation (stop future charges, no refund): You can cancel anytime via (i) the "Cancel subscription" button on the Billing screen (stops auto-renewal from the next cycle while you keep the remaining period; no refund), (ii) the subscription management link (Polar customer portal) in your receipt email, or (iii) blend@ai4min.com. Cancellation stops billing from the next renewal; you keep access for the period already paid.

Refund (full within 7 days / long-term pass remainder): Request via the Polar customer portal in your receipt email, or email blend@ai4min.com (use the "Refund helper" below to open a pre-filled email or copy the form). We verify your purchase via the email used at checkout or the Order ID in the receipt. Requests are handled the same regardless of which device you use.

• Required: checkout email or order ID, payment date, reason

Processing: Refunds are processed via Polar (Merchant of Record) to the original payment method, with refund action taken within 3 business days of the request. Actual settlement may take additional time per card issuer/Polar procedures. After the period set by the card issuer/Polar, card cancellation may be impossible and refund methods limited.

6. Prepaid Credit Packs

In addition to recurring subscriptions (Pro, Smarter), the Company may offer one-time prepaid credit packs, which are drawn down against usage beyond the Company-provided limits of managed use. Prepaid credits may qualify as "digital content" under Article 17(2)5 of the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, Etc. (Korea), so withdrawal may be restricted for credits already used (consumed). The refund terms for unused credits are shown on the screen before payment, and the Company discloses this restriction on withdrawal before payment pursuant to Article 17(6) of the same Act. This Section applies together with Article 11 of the Terms of Service.
