10. Purchases:
In general
Mango may, from time to time, make available products and services for sale (in-app purchases) via authorized payment platforms such as the App Store, Google Play Store, carrier billing, Mango direct billing, or other approved platforms. If you opt to engage in an in-app purchase, you will receive a prompt to confirm the purchase through the designated payment provider. Your chosen payment method, whether it is a card or a third-party account like the Google Play Store or App Store (Payment Method), will be charged for the specific in-app purchase at the displayed prices for the selected service(s), inclusive of any applicable sales or similar taxes imposed on your payments. By doing so, you are granting Mango or the relevant third-party account the authority to charge you accordingly.
Automatic Subscription Renewal and Card Payments
When you purchase an auto-recurring periodic subscription through an in-app purchase, please note that your Payment Method will continue to be billed for the subscription until you decide to cancel it. Following the initial subscription commitment period, the subscription will automatically extend for an indefinite duration at the agreed price, unless you cancel before the renewal date. As per the Agreement, your card payment information will be securely stored and used for subsequent automatic card payments.
If you have any objections regarding a payment that has already been made, please direct your concerns to Customer Support. If you were billed directly by Mango or through a third-party account, such as the App Store, you can contact them to raise your objections. Your bank or payment provider can also provide you with further information regarding your rights and applicable time limits. However, it is important to note that you are still responsible for paying any outstanding amounts, even if you withdraw your consent to automatic card payments.
To change or terminate your subscription, we recommend logging into your third-party account or accessing the Settings within the Mango application, if applicable. Follow the provided instructions to cancel or terminate your subscription, even if you have previously deleted your account or removed the Mango application from your device. Deleting your account or the application itself does not automatically cancel your subscription. All funds charged to your Payment Method will be retained by Mango until you officially terminate or cancel your subscription on Mango or the relevant third-party account.
Upon terminating or cancelling your subscription, you will retain access to the subscription until the end of the current subscription term. After that, your subscription will not be renewed.
For our members residing in Germany, please be aware that you have the right to terminate your subscription with one-month notice after it has been renewed, and this right remains unaffected even in the case of termination for cause.
Additional Terms for Direct Payments to Mango
If you choose to pay Mango directly using your Payment Method, it is important to understand the following terms. Mango reserves the right to rectify any billing errors or mistakes, even if payment has already been requested or received. In the event that you initiate a chargeback or reverse a payment made using your Payment Method, Mango may, at its sole discretion, immediately terminate your account.
You have the ability to modify your Payment Method information by visiting Mango's website and accessing the Settings section. In the event of a failed payment due to expiration, insufficient funds, or any other reason, and if you do not update your Payment Method information, terminate, or cancel your subscription, you will remain responsible for any outstanding amounts. By doing so, you authorize us to continue billing your Payment Method, as updated, which may result in changes to your payment billing dates. Additionally, you provide us with authorization to obtain updated or replacement expiration dates and card numbers for your credit or debit card, as provided by the issuer. The specific terms and conditions of your payment will be based on your chosen Payment Method and may be subject to agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer, or other provider of your selected Payment Method.
Virtual Items may be available for purchase or earning within the Service. These Virtual Items are limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable licenses that allow you to use virtual products or exchange them for other virtual products, such as virtual coins or units. The Virtual Item balance displayed in your account does not possess real-world value or represent stored value, but rather serves as a measure of your license's extent. There are no fees associated with unused Virtual Items; however, the license for Virtual Items will terminate in accordance with the terms outlined in this Agreement if Mango discontinues the Service or if your account is closed or terminated. Mango, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for accessing or using Virtual Items and may distribute Virtual Items with or without charge. Mango retains the authority to manage, regulate, control, modify, or eliminate Virtual Items at any time. In exercising these rights, Mango assumes no liability to you or any third party.
It is important to note that Virtual Items can only be redeemed within the Service. All purchases and redemptions of Virtual Items made through the Service are considered final and non-refundable. The provision of Virtual Items for use within the Service begins immediately upon acceptance of your purchase. You acknowledge that Mango is not obligated to provide refunds for Virtual Items for any reason and that you will not receive monetary compensation or any other form of reimbursement for unused Virtual Items in the event of account closure, whether voluntary or involuntary.
Refund Policy and Pricing
Refunds: In general, all purchase charges are nonrefundable, and there will be no refunds or credits for partially used periods. However, we may consider refunding a subscription within fourteen days of the transaction date if a refund is requested or if the applicable laws in your jurisdiction allow for refunds.
To request a refund:
- If you made a purchase using your Apple ID, refunds are handled by Apple, not Mango. Please go to the App Store, click on your Apple ID, select Purchase history, locate the transaction, and click Report Problem. Alternatively, you can submit a refund request at https://getsupport.apple.com.
- If you made a purchase using your Google Play Store account or through Mango directly, please contact our customer support with your order number for the Google Play Store (order number can be found in the confirmation email or by logging in to Google Wallet) or Mango (order number available in your confirmation email).
If you exercise your right of cancellation, except for purchases made through your Apple ID, which is controlled by Apple, we will refund (or request Google to refund) all payments received from you promptly and within 14 days of receiving notice of your decision to cancel the Agreement. The refund will be processed using the original payment method. Please note that no fees will be charged as a result of the refund.
For purchases made through other payment platforms not mentioned above, kindly request a refund directly from the third-party merchant responsible for the purchase.
Please be aware that orders for the delivery of digital content, without a physical medium, cannot be canceled once the order processing has commenced with your explicit prior consent and acknowledgment that cancellation rights will be forfeited. This policy applies to purchases of Virtual Items, which are considered final and non-refundable.
Pricing: As a global business, Mango has varying pricing structures influenced by various factors. We frequently offer promotional rates, which may differ based on region, subscription duration, bundle sizes, and more. Additionally, we regularly test new features and payment options to enhance our services.
