You can raise an inquiry to address your concerns and desired resolution related to the service provided by their Seller prior to contacting Customer Support. Customer Support will not take any action against Orders where the applicable has failed to inform their Seller of issues related to the Seller’s service and will allow Sellers to provide a resolution first. This does not include non-permitted usage of papmall®.

Chargebacks
papmall® reviews cases of payment provider chargebacks and disputes on behalf of Sellers. Although results vary per case due to each chargeback reason, we work hard on resolving disputes in the Seller’s favor. If the chargeback case allows, papmall® (or one of papmall®’s Payment Services Providers) will return parts or full revenue back to Sellers, otherwise the chargeback amount will be borne by the Seller.
Refunds
papmall® does not automatically refund payments made for canceled orders back to your payment provider. Funds from order cancellations are returned to the Buyer's papmall® Balance and are available for future purchases on papmall®. Regarding any service fee, papmall® returns it to your papmall® Balance once an order is canceled. In any event, if the service fees were not returned to your papmall® Balance following an order cancellation, such service fees’ amount will be exempted from your next purchase on papmall®.
Deposit refunds (i.e. refunds directly to your payment provider) can be performed by our Customer Support team, based on the Order’s original payment amount and currency. To prevent fraud and abuse, we limit the total amount of times users can request a payment provider refund, which is subject to review by our Customer Support team. Such refunds may be subject to an additional fee.
