REFUNDS
ActRight does its best to honor refunds requested for reasons such as input error, when a contributor accidentally donates twice or enters the wrong donation amount. ActRight will not consider refunds for other reasons such as a change in political opinion, the loss of an election or the cancellation of an event. ActRight reserves the right to refuse a refund request for these or other reasons.
All refund requests are subject to the availability of the contribution funds. Because ActRight forwards contributions to the candidate, cause, or committee to whom you choose to contribute, ActRight will only refund a contribution if we still have the funds or can recover the funds from the recipient. For this reason, it is of the utmost importance that you make your request for a refund as soon after contributing as possible.
All refunds issued by ActRight will be credited back to the card used to make the contribution. In all cases where we are not able to accommodate a refund request, we will be happy to refer you to the recipient of your contribution so that you may request a refund directly from them.
If our fraud detection systems flag a transaction as fraudulent, the contribution will be refunded automatically regardless of whether a refund has been requested.
OUR RELATIONSHIP
