Three numbers. That's the whole policy.

If you're planning to request a refund, these are the three figures that matter. Everything else on this page is detail.

3
Days to Request

Your refund request must be submitted within 3 calendar days of the original purchase. Requests made after this window cannot be processed.

15%
Refund Charge

A 15% processing charge is deducted from the original payment. This covers payment gateway fees, setup, and administrative costs.

20%
Late Payment Fee

Payments made after the invoice due date carry a 20% late fee. This applies to renewals and outstanding invoices.

Here's exactly what you get back.

A concrete example with real numbers, so there's no confusion about how the refund charge is applied.

Say you paid ৳1,000 for an eligible hosting plan. Within the first 3 days, you request a refund.

HOSTNEED deducts a 15% processing charge — that's ৳150. The charge covers payment gateway transaction costs, initial server provisioning, and administrative handling of the refund.

You receive the remaining ৳850 back through your original payment method, typically within 48–72 hours of approval.

This is the same calculation applied to every refund request. No surprises, no variation.

STEP 04

After approval, funds are returned to your original payment source within 48–72 hours.

What happens if payment is late.

To keep services running for everyone and cover administrative overhead, HOSTNEED applies a late fee on overdue invoices.

20% Late Fee

If an invoice remains unpaid after its due date, a 20% late fee is added to the outstanding amount. This fee is applied once the grace period on the invoice ends.

Late fees are not refundable and cannot be waived. To avoid them entirely, ensure invoices are paid on or before their due date.

Consistent non-payment can result in service suspension and, in extended cases, account termination with data deletion. Please treat renewals as a priority to avoid service interruptions.
