You agree to pay the fees for content that you purchase, and you authorize us to charge your debit or credit card or process other means of payment (such as direct debit, or mobile wallet etc) for those fees. Smartlearning works with our payment service provider to offer you the most convenient payment methods in your country and to keep your payment information secure.

Refund

Please refer to the information below for details on our refund and cancellation policies. Please note that our policies may differ between offerings, and payment options may vary. Please also note that we treat violations of our Terms of Use and Privacy Notice very seriously, and we have no obligation to offer refunds to users who violate these or other Smartlearning policies, even if their requests are made within the designated refund period. Similarly, we are not obligated to offer late refunds to users who request a refund after the 14-day designated refund period, have logged into the training, or have already received the course materials. Once you have earned a course certificate with your payment, you are not eligible for a refund, even if it is within 14 days. If you do not earn your course certificate within 180 days, your registration will expire and you must pay to re-register for the course. Please read these Terms carefully and make sure you understand them before ordering anything from our website. We will also notify you at the point of purchase if any additional terms and conditions apply to any specific contract between us.
