Refund Policy
01 Introduction
This Refund Policy outlines the refund and cancellation terms for all products and services offered by Arb Digital, operated by Arbsbuy LLC (United States), through arbdigital.agency.
We offer two types of engagement, each with its own refund terms: Digital Marketing Services (monthly retainers) and Project-Based Services (web design and app development). Please read the relevant section carefully before engaging a service.
For all refund requests, contact us at [email protected]. We respond within 3 business days.
02 Digital Marketing Services
Arb Digital offers the following monthly digital marketing services on a month-to-month basis:
SEO Services, Local SEO, Technical SEO, E-commerce SEO, Enterprise SEO, Link Building, Google Ads Management, Facebook & Instagram Ads, YouTube Advertising, Content Marketing, Email Marketing, Copywriting, Affiliate Marketing, Social Media Marketing, Web Design & Development (ongoing retainer), WooCommerce Management, Reputation Management, and App Development (ongoing retainer).
Cancellation Policy
✅ You may cancel any monthly service at any time with 30 days written notice sent to [email protected]. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle. No penalty or cancellation fee applies.
Refund Terms
❌ Monthly service fees are non-refundable once work has commenced for that billing period. If you cancel mid-month, you retain access to the service and all deliverables for the remainder of the paid period. No partial refunds are issued for unused days within a billing cycle.
Exception — Service Not Delivered
If Arb Digital fails to commence or deliver the agreed service within the stated timeframe through no fault of the client, a full refund of the affected billing period will be issued. Refund requests under this exception must be submitted within 14 days of the missed delivery date.
Advertising Spend
💳 Paid advertising budgets (Google Ads, Meta/Facebook, YouTube, etc.) are paid directly to the advertising platforms through your own ad accounts and are separate from our management fees. Ad spend is non-refundable by Arb Digital, as those funds are paid to the platforms, not to our agency. You own your advertising accounts; we operate them under standard manager access only.
03 Web Design & App Development Projects
One-time project services — including web design & development, WooCommerce store development, and mobile app development — follow a milestone payment structure.
Payment Structure
- 30% Deposit — Due before work begins. Covers initial planning, research, wireframing, and resource allocation.
- 40% Mid-Project — Due upon reaching the agreed mid-project milestone (design approval or development checkpoint).
- 30% Final Payment — Due upon delivery of the completed project.
Refund Terms by Stage
| Project Stage | Deposit (30%) | Mid-Payment (40%) | Final (30%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Before work begins | ✓ Refundable | Not yet paid | Not yet paid |
| After work begins | ✗ Non-refundable | Not yet paid | Not yet paid |
| After mid-milestone | ✗ Non-refundable | ✗ Non-refundable | Not yet paid |
| After final delivery | ✗ Non-refundable | ✗ Non-refundable | ✗ Non-refundable |
If a project is cancelled by the client after work has commenced, any work completed to date will be delivered to the client. Hours worked will be invoiced at an agreed rate, up to the value of the next unpaid milestone.

- Monthly digital marketing service fees for a billing period already commenced
