Policies
At HobbieHop, we aim to guarantee customer satisfaction while maintaining fairness and clarity. Because our website sells both third-party affiliate products and our own digital goods, our policy is divided into two sections:
Section 1: Third-Party (Affiliate) Products
Please note: If you buy a product via an affiliate link (e.g., Amazon, Fiverr, SafariNow, Clickbank, Rakuten Advertising, Megafile, Ecwid, etc.), your transaction is completed directly with the seller on their platform.
We do not manage shipping, returns, or refunds for these products.
For support, please contact the respective seller or refer to their refund and return policy.
Examples of affiliate platforms we link to:
- Amazon
- Fiverr
- Travelstart
- Megafile
- Ecwid Marketplace
- Clickbank
- Rakuten Advertising
- SafariNow
Section 2: HobbieHop Digital Products
This includes:
- eBooks
- Printable and fillable PDFs
- Canva templates
- Downloadable toolkits
All sales of digital products are final.
Once a purchase is completed, we do not offer returns, exchanges, or refunds. This policy is due to the instant nature of digital downloads.
However, if you experience technical issues (e.g., a broken link or failed download), please email us at support@hobbiehop.com within 7 days of purchase. We’ll make sure you receive your files successfully.
⛔ Non-Refundable Products
We do not issue refunds for:
- Instant digital downloads
- Products already accessed or downloaded
- Items marked as free or promotional
- Incorrect purchases made without reading the full description
