The delivery of the ordered product to the Customer can be done in various ways, depending on the product, the purchase channel or other parameters. Most purchased products will be delivered to the Customer by Email, to their reloadhero.com Customer Account or directly to an account held with a third party that operates the service for which the Customer has purchased the code for.
2. At times certain products can be generally unavailable. The Company is under no obligation to always assure the availability of all products and codes which it advertises or promotes, However, the Company will always make its best efforts to coordinate adequate stock-levels at the providers of the codes or products to avoid situations of limited availability.
3. The Company maintains the general right to change, amend, extend or restrict the product range available in general, on a Customer basis or any other logic it considers reasonable and adequate.
4. Discounts and offers
1. The Company may advertise and make available discounts and offers, in which case the period of validity shall always be stated. This may include so-called ‘discount codes’ (paid or unpaid). These discount codes are specifically valid for a period of one year; if they are not used within the specified period, the redeemability and validity of the code lapses. However, the Company is under no obligation to offer any discounts or offers to all Customers.
5. Agreement
1. The Agreement becomes effective after payment by the Customer.
2. The Agreement is entered into anytime anew when the Customer makes a payment.
3. If a term has been agreed or specified for the execution of certain services or for the delivery of certain products (i.e. the delivery of a product code by email to the Customer), this is never a strict, but rather indicative deadline. If a term is exceeded or expired, the Customer must give the Company written notice of default. The Company must be given a reasonable period in which to still execute the Agreement and its obligations under it.
6. Confirmation and acceptance of the order
1. The Agreement between the Parties is concluded as soon as the customer has ordered products via reloadhero.com and has paid to the Company (in advance) the price for such orders in full. The delivery of the order always follows AFTER payment has been made by the Customer.
2. The Company reserves the right, without giving reasons, to reject entering into an Agreement. Practically this means that the order or the payment has not been accepted by the Company.
3. Any notice given under or pursuant to the Agreement will be made available in writing by email to the other party at the address stated on the order.
4. The Company is not bound to verbal agreements if these have not been confirmed by the Company in writing.
7. Modification of the order and/or Agreement
1. If, during the execution of the Agreement, it appears that it is necessary to amend or supplement the agreement, the Parties will proceed to amend the Agreement in good time and in mutual consultation and good faith.
2. Without being in default, the Company may refuse a request for amendment, supplementation or withdrawal of the standing Agreement, if this could have consequences in qualitative and/or quantitative terms, for example for the products to be delivered in that context.
8. Reflection period and right of withdrawal
1. An already placed and paid-for order cannot be cancelled. The reflection period and revocation period of 14 days is not applicable in view of the digital nature of the products to be delivered. Thus, there is no reflection period and revocation period. Further information is available in our refund policy on our website. The Customer therefore agrees to a direct delivery of the product after payment and explicitly renounces the reflection period and the right of revocation. A paid-for and delivered product cannot be returned. A paid-for product that has not been delivered for any reason the Company is reasonably liable for, can be refunded, following the Company’s non-delivery mitigation procedure via the Customer Support Team. Any such refund is on a voluntary basis and the Company is under no general obligation to refund the Customer. The Company might charge in certain cases a reasonable refund fee to the Customer or deduct such fee from the refund amount, if the refund request is at least partly based on circumstances and reasons outside the Company’s control or liability.
2. The reason for deviating from the right of withdrawal is that a product cannot be returned because it cannot be ascertained whether the product has already been used. After all, it concerns digital products of which the seal is broken immediately after delivery. The nature of digital products makes any reflection period and the right of withdrawal impossible, except in case of delayed payment. In that case, the code has not yet been sent by the Customer nor received by the Company and the product could still be revoked. For this, it is the Customer who bears the burden of proof.
9. Delivery of orders
1. Under no circumstances will the Company be liable for any delay in the delivery of products, except in the event of intent or gross negligence. Company guarantees to make sure that a working product code will be delivered by the product provider, in the absence of which a new code will be delivered (free of charge). Evidence for the malfunctioning of the code lies with the Customer. Delivery of a product or code is conducted either via Email, drop into the
Account or drop into a Third-Party Account for certain product categories. There are instances that require certain code or products to be delivered in an “inactive” state. If a Customer receives a code or product that is “Inactive”, it is clearly labelled as such and instructions are given as part of the delivery on how to activate the code or product. The activation of the product might require certain information to be provided or consent given by the Customer. The activation process for “inactive” codes or products is free of charge. The main reason for some of the codes or product being delivered as “inactive” might be security considerations to protect the Customer and the order.

Any third-party account is governed by its own terms and conditions. If a Customer is given the option to open an additional account with a third-party provider for the delivery (and possibly automated activation) of the order and the products, then the Customer will have to consent to such opening process by accepting the third-party’s terms and conditions and consenting to a transfer of their personal data as required by the third-party.
