What is Surfshark's refund policy

If you purchased your Surfshark subscription through the Surfshark website, you are eligible for a full refund within 30 days of your first purchase.


This 30‑day money‑back guarantee allows you to try Surfshark risk‑free.

 

How to claim a refund

To request a refund, simply contact Surfshark’s customer support via live chat.


Our support team will guide you through the process and take care of the refund request for you.

 

When a refund is available

A refund may be granted under the 30‑day money‑back guarantee if all of the following conditions are met:

  • The subscription was purchased directly from Surfshark or through an eligible reseller (Paddle, Google Play, or Cleverbridge)
  • The request is made within 30 days of the initial purchase
  • The subscription has not previously been refunded
  • The purchase does not include non‑refundable services or options

 

What are the exceptions to the money-back policy

The 30‑day money‑back guarantee does not apply if:

  • The refund has already been issued before (the guarantee applies only to the first subscription purchase)
  • The subscription has already renewed
  • The subscription was not purchased via our authorized billing partners (Paddle, Google Play or Cleverbridge)
  • The purchase includes non‑refundable add‑ons (such as anonymous Dedicated IP or Alternative ID services)

NOTE: In some cases, refunds may be handled directly by the payment platform used for the purchase.

 

How long does the refund take?

Once approved, refunds are typically processed within a few business days. The exact timing may depend on your payment method and bank.

 

How to claim a refund purchased through app store?

If you bought Surfshark via a third‑party store, the refund is handled by that platform:

  • Apple App Store
    Refunds must be requested directly from Apple via Apple Support.
  • Amazon Appstore
    Refunds are managed by Amazon via Amazon Support.
  • Google Play Store
    If the purchase was made within the last 48 hours, you can request a refund directly through Google Play Support. Otherwise, Surfshark support can assist with the request.

 

Where can I find the full refund terms?

The complete refund policy is available in Surfshark Terms of Service, section 4.
