By using TheKeyMall, you agree to the terms outlined in this Refund Policy.


1. General Policy Overview

TheKeyMall operates as a multi-vendor marketplace platform. This means products and services are provided by independent vendors, restaurants, pharmacies, and service providers.

Refund eligibility may vary depending on:

  • The type of product or service purchased

  • The vendor’s individual refund policy

  • The condition of the item or service issue

  • Proof of claim provided by the customer

Where applicable, TheKeyMall will assist in mediating disputes between customers and vendors to ensure fair resolution.


2. Refund Eligibility

Customers may be eligible for a refund under the following circumstances:

🍽️ Food Orders

  • Incorrect order delivered

  • Missing items from order

  • Food is spoiled, contaminated, or unfit for consumption

  • Order not delivered

⚠️ Note: Refund requests for food must generally be submitted within 2 hours of delivery or expected delivery time.


🛒 Grocery Orders

  • Incorrect items delivered

  • Damaged or expired goods

  • Missing items

  • Items significantly different from description

Perishable goods may have limited refund eligibility depending on condition at delivery.


🛍️ eCommerce Products

  • Defective product

  • Wrong item delivered

Customers may be required to return the item in original packaging where applicable.


💊 Pharmacy Orders

  • Incorrect medication delivered

  • Damaged packaging affecting product integrity

  • Expired medication delivered

⚠️ For health and safety reasons, opened or used pharmaceutical products are generally non-refundable, unless legally required.


📦 Parcel & Delivery Services

  • Parcel not delivered within agreed timeframe (excluding delays caused by customs, weather, or force majeure)

  • Parcel lost or confirmed missing

  • Incorrect delivery fulfillment

Claims may require tracking verification and proof of shipment details.


3. Non-Refundable Items & Situations

Refunds will not be issued in the following cases:

  • Customer changes mind after delivery (unless vendor allows returns)

  • Incorrect address provided by customer

  • Failure to receive order due to customer unavailability

  • Perishable goods already consumed or partially used

  • Digital or downloadable products (if applicable in future eCommerce expansion)

  • Delays caused by external factors (weather, traffic, public events, etc.)


4. Refund Process

To request a refund, customers must follow these steps:

  1. Contact TheKeyMall support via email:
    📧 info@thekeymall.com

  2. Provide the following details:

    • Order ID

    • Date of purchase

    • Description of issue

    • Photos or evidence (if applicable)

  3. Our support team will review the request and coordinate with the vendor.

  4. The vendor will approve or reject the refund based on policy compliance.

  5. Approved refunds will be processed using the original payment method.


5. Refund Processing Time

Once approved, refunds are typically processed within:

  • 5–14 business days for most payment methods

  • Up to 21 business days depending on banking institutions

Please note that processing times may vary depending on the vendor and payment gateway.


6. Partial Refunds

In some cases, partial refunds may be issued when:

  • Only part of the order is affected

  • Replacement of items is not possible

  • Compensation is offered instead of full refund


7. Order Cancellations

  • Orders can only be cancelled before preparation or dispatch.

  • Once an order has been processed or shipped, cancellation may not be possible.

  • Restaurants and pharmacies may begin preparation immediately after order placement, limiting cancellation eligibility.


8. Vendor Responsibility

As a multi-vendor platform, each seller is responsible for:

  • Product quality and accuracy

  • Timely fulfillment of orders

  • Handling of valid refund requests

TheKeyMall acts as a facilitator to ensure fair resolution but does not directly manufacture or prepare goods.


9. Dispute Resolution

If a customer and vendor cannot reach an agreement, TheKeyMall may:

  • Investigate the issue independently

  • Request additional evidence

  • Issue a platform-supported resolution

  • Provide partial or full compensation (at our discretion)

We aim to ensure fairness for both customers and vendors.


10. Fraudulent Claims

TheKeyMall reserves the right to:

  • Deny refund requests suspected of fraud or misuse

  • Suspend accounts involved in repeated false claims

  • Take legal action where necessary


11. Changes to This Policy

TheKeyMall may update this Refund Policy at any time to reflect changes in services, legal requirements, or operational improvements. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
