Product Delivery

At First Design Company, we offer both free and paid downloadable products. Free products are available for direct download, while paid products can be downloaded as a single entity upon successful payment. We process payments using reputable methods such as PayPal, MasterCard, Visa, and major credit cards. Prior to finalizing any product purchase, you must agree to the terms and conditions of these payment service providers.

Upon successful payment, your membership information will be sent to your email address. Our automated system typically creates accounts immediately following successful payments. However, in cases where payment anomalies arise and manual review is necessary, delays may occur, ranging from 1 hour to a maximum of 24 hours. The duration of any delay is contingent on the specific circumstances and the extent of investigation required following a fraud alert.

Returns and Refunds Policy

We do not issue refunds for digital products once an order is confirmed and the product is ready for download. Exceptions may be considered in the following situations:

  1. Major Technical Problems: If you encounter significant technical issues with a purchased product, and our support team is unable to resolve the matter, a refund may be granted.
  2. Misrepresentation: If you find that a product’s description significantly misrepresents its actual attributes or capabilities, you may be eligible for a refund.

Please note that we are not obligated to provide refunds or credits if you have had a change of heart, made a mistaken purchase, or can no longer access the product due to its removal from First Design Company. To avoid such situations, we recommend promptly downloading purchased items.

If you encounter any difficulties receiving or downloading our offered products, we encourage you to contact us for assistance.
