5. Paid Services and Refunds
5.1 Payment Mechanism
- This service uses a prepaid model, users must top up before use
- API call fees will be deducted from account balance in real-time
- API services will be unavailable when account balance is insufficient
5.2 Refund Policy
This service does not offer refunds (except for upgrade credit, see below). The reasons are:
- Nature of digital goods: this service sells online digital goods (API access). Once activated it occupies account resources and billing begins, so it cannot be returned or resold.
- Immediate effect: the service is usable as soon as it is activated, so the user has already received the corresponding value.
- Resource cost: every API key occupies upstream account quota once activated, incurring cost even if no calls are made.
Upgrade credit (exception)
If you buy a higher-quota plan while an existing plan is still active, you may email hi@qcode.cc to close the old plan; its remaining time value is credited back to your QCode balance pro rata, usually within 1 business day. The credit goes to your QCode balance only — it is not returned to the original payment method and cannot be withdrawn.
Balance transfer as an alternative
For users who need to move balance out, we offer balance transfers between QCode members as an alternative:
- Use case: you may sell your QCode account balance on third-party platforms (such as Xianyu or Zhuanzhuan)
- How to apply: once you have found a buyer, email hi@qcode.cc to request the transfer
- Email contents: state the amount to transfer and the recipient's QCode account email (must be a registered member)
- Processing time: we complete the manual review and transfer within 1 business day
- Important limits:
- Balance transfers are only between registered QCode members
- Transfers to non-member accounts are not supported
- Withdrawals to Alipay, bank cards or other third-party payment platforms are not supported
- The platform reserves the right to reject abnormal transfer requests
