Last Update há um mês

Gift card orders are processed automatically after a successful payment and generally cannot be canceled.

If the transaction fails, the remaining funds are automatically returned to the same Para wallet as USDG, minus the applicable fees. A failed gift card purchase does not earn $ZED cashback.


Refunds for successfully processed orders are available only in limited cases determined by Cryptorefills. 

What happens if the payment fails?

If the gift card payment fails:

  • The gift card is not delivered.
  • The remaining funds are returned to the same Para wallet as USDG.
  • Applicable fees are deducted.
  • The funds do not return as the asset originally selected for payment.
  • The purchase does not earn $ZED cashback.

The return may take time to appear while the failed transaction and fund recovery are processed.

Check your Para wallet and the History tab before attempting the purchase again.

Which asset will I receive after a failed purchase?

Recovered funds are returned as USDG.

This applies even if you originally selected:

  • ETH
  • USDG
  • CASHCAT
  • LOCK

The recovered amount does not return as ETH, CASHCAT or LOCK.

The USDG is returned to the same Para wallet used for the gift card purchase.

Are the fees returned?

No. Applicable fees are deducted before the remaining funds are returned.

The recovered USDG may therefore be lower than the original value of the asset used for payment.

Review the gift card price, Zedkr fee and complete total before completing Slide to confirm.

Does a failed purchase earn $ZED cashback?

No. A failed gift card purchase does not earn $ZED cashback.

Gift card cashback becomes available only after the transaction succeeds.

If a failed purchase appears to have added cashback, or a successful purchase does not show the expected cashback, open Zedkr Cash chat support and send us a message.

Can I cancel before confirming?

Yes. If you have not completed Slide to confirm, you can close the checkout screen without authorizing the purchase.

The transaction does not begin until you complete the slide action and approve the required Para wallet authorization.

Before confirming, review:

  • Gift card brand
  • Gift card value
  • Country or region
  • Cryptorefills gift card price
  • Zedkr fee
  • Complete total
  • Payment asset
  • Delivery email

Do not confirm the purchase if any information is incorrect.

Can I cancel after completing Slide to confirm?

Gift card fulfillment begins automatically after a successful payment.

Once you complete Slide to confirm and the payment succeeds, the purchase generally cannot be canceled.


Unlike a cash-out order, a gift card purchase does not remain open while waiting for a buyer. Cryptorefills processes the gift card for automatic delivery.

A cancellation or refund is possible only if Cryptorefills determines that the order qualifies for an exception.

Can I cancel after the gift card is delivered?

No. A delivered gift card generally cannot be canceled.

Refunds are generally unavailable when:

  • The gift card was successfully delivered.
  • The code has been used.
  • The wrong country or region was selected.
  • The gift card is incompatible with the recipient’s regional account.
  • The delivery email was entered incorrectly.
  • The recipient no longer wants the gift card.
  • The issuing brand’s account requirements are not met.
  • The code expired under the applicable terms.

Always verify the product, region and delivery email before confirming.

When might Cryptorefills approve a refund?

Cryptorefills may review a refund request when:

  • The product cannot be delivered.
  • A delivered gift card is confirmed to be faulty.
  • The payment or order failed during processing.
  • Another provider-approved exception applies.

A refund is not guaranteed. Cryptorefills reviews the circumstances and determines whether the order qualifies.

Zedkr Support will coordinate with Cryptorefills on your behalf.

What if my gift card has not arrived?

A missing email does not automatically mean the purchase failed.

Before requesting help:

  1. Confirm that the payment succeeded.
  2. Open the purchase in History.
  3. Check the delivery email’s inbox.
  4. Check spam, junk, promotions and deleted folders.
  5. Search for “Cryptorefills.”
  6. Search for [email protected].
  7. Search for [email protected].
  8. Wait up to about one hour in case the order requires manual processing.

If the gift card still does not arrive, open Zedkr Cash chat support and send us a message.

Do not purchase the same gift card again until the original order has been reviewed.

What if the gift card code does not work?

A code error does not automatically qualify for a refund.

First, confirm that:

  • The code was entered exactly as provided.
  • No extra spaces were added.
  • You are using the issuing brand’s official redemption page.
  • The gift card matches the account’s country or region.
  • The correct regional storefront is being used.
  • The code has not already been redeemed.
  • The gift card has not expired.
  • The issuing brand’s redemption requirements are met.

If the code still does not work, take a screenshot of the error with the complete gift card code fully redacted.

Zedkr Support will coordinate with Cryptorefills to determine whether the product is faulty.

What if I selected the wrong country?

Region-specific gift cards generally cannot be refunded after delivery.

Selecting another country or using a VPN does not change the region assigned to the gift card.

If you have not completed Slide to confirm, return to the Gift Cards screen and select the correct country.

If the payment has already succeeded, contact Zedkr Cash Support. A refund is not guaranteed and depends on Cryptorefills’ determination.

What if I entered the wrong delivery email?

Once a gift card has been delivered, it cannot be redirected to another email address.

If you notice the mistake immediately:

  1. Open the gift card purchase in History.
  2. Record the gift card brand, value, date and time.
  3. Open Zedkr Cash chat support.
  4. Send us a message as soon as possible.

Because fulfillment is automatic, Support may not be able to stop or redirect the order.

Entering an incorrect email does not guarantee eligibility for a refund.

How long does a refund take?

The time required depends on:

  • The reason for the refund
  • Whether Cryptorefills needs to investigate
  • Whether the product was delivered
  • Whether the issuing brand must confirm a fault
  • Blockchain processing
  • The order’s current state

Zedkr Cash cannot guarantee a specific refund timeframe.

Continue monitoring your Para wallet and the History tab. Zedkr

Support will provide available updates while coordinating with Cryptorefills.

Where is the refund sent?

An approved return is sent to the same Para wallet used for the purchase.

The funds are returned as USDG, minus the applicable fees.

You cannot request that the funds be sent:

  • To a different wallet
  • To a bank account
  • To a payout app
  • As the asset originally selected for payment
  • As another gift card

Confirm that you are signed in to the correct Para wallet when checking for the returned USDG.

What happens to cashback after a refund?

A transaction that fails before successful completion does not earn $ZED cashback.

A successful gift card purchase earns cashback immediately after the transaction succeeds.

If Cryptorefills later approves a refund for a purchase that was previously marked successful, Zedkr Support will confirm how the cashback connected to that specific order is handled.

Can Zedkr issue the refund directly?

No. Zedkr Support cannot independently issue, approve or guarantee a gift card refund.

Cryptorefills processes the gift card order and determines whether it qualifies for a provider-approved refund.

Zedkr Support can:

  • Review the transaction information you provide
  • Confirm the purchase details visible in Zedkr Cash
  • Help identify a failed transaction
  • Coordinate the issue with Cryptorefills
  • Provide available status updates
  • Help confirm whether returned USDG has reached your Para wallet

What should I do if the returned USDG does not appear?

First:

  1. Confirm that you are signed in to the same Para wallet used for the purchase.
  2. Open your wallet portfolio.
  3. Check the USDG balance.
  4. Refresh Zedkr Cash.
  5. Review the History tab.
  6. Wait for any pending blockchain activity to complete.

If the USDG still does not appear, open Zedkr Cash chat support and send us a message.

Do not repeatedly submit the same purchase or refund request.

What should I provide to Support?

Include:

  • Your public Para wallet address
  • Gift card brand and value
  • Purchase date and approximate time
  • Country selected during purchase
  • Payment asset
  • Displayed total
  • Cryptorefills order ID, if available
  • Relevant transaction information
  • Reason for the refund request
  • Exact error message, when applicable
  • A screenshot with personal information and the gift card code fully redacted

Zedkr Support will review the information and coordinate with Cryptorefills when provider assistance is required.

Never send passwords, private keys, wallet recovery credentials, email verification codes, authentication codes, claim links or an unredacted gift card code.
