Refund Policy
Last updated November 2, 2026
In short
Matchbook is a one-time digital purchase that's available as soon as you pay, so we don't offer change-of-mind refunds. We will refund you if something on our side goes wrong.
When you can get a refund
Within 14 days of the purchase, if:
- a technical problem on our side stops your Matchbook or a paid feature from working, and we can't fix it within a reasonable time; or
- you were charged twice or by mistake (for example a duplicate payment); or
- your partner can't get their dating-app data (they can tell us through their invite, or you can): ask from your Matchbook's options, linked from the Matchbook, from My Matchbooks and from the partner invite page.
This applies to Matchbook purchases and to upgrades from Spark.
When we can't refund
- You changed your mind, or no longer need the Matchbook.
- Your partner just hasn't added their side yet, or chose to withdraw consent.
- Your dating-app export didn't contain the conversation you hoped for. You can check this before paying, and your first Spark is free to try.
- More than 14 days have passed since the purchase.
How to request
Go to Account → Payments and choose “Request a refund” next to the payment (shown for 14 days after you pay), or use the contact form and choose “Refund request”, or email [email protected]. Tell us which Matchbook and what went wrong. We reply within 5 business days; approved refunds go back to the original card through Stripe and usually appear within 5–10 business days.
What happens after a refund
When a Matchbook you bought is fully refunded, it's deleted 7 days later, with its photos, messages and memories, for both of you. Until then you can still open it and download everything (Account → Your data). We email you the date it will be deleted. We keep a record of the payment and the refund for our accounts. A partial refund changes nothing else. If you're refunded for an upgrade, the Matchbook stays and goes back to being your free Spark: it looks and works like a Spark, and what the upgrade added (the letter, the video, memories beyond a Spark's, the style) is kept but hidden, and comes back as it was if you upgrade again. Upgrading a Spark lets you start another free one, and an account keeps one free Spark at a time: if you've made another free Spark since, the refunded one is deleted 7 days later instead, as with a refund, and the other stays. While a chargeback is open the Matchbook is on Spark in the same way. If the bank reverses the payment, it's handled as a refund.
Your legal rights
This policy doesn't take away any rights you have under the Consumer Protection laws that apply to you.
