Please contact your card issuer for further info about authorization holds.

Is there a limit to how much I can spend with Swaypay

No! However, you can be suspended if you do not follow the content posting guidelines with your purchase. Ie: If you delete your posts before the 30 day window of time you have to keep them up.

Will I get charged if I don't post?

When you purchase something with Swaypay, you have a window of 30 days from the date of purchase to post the specified number of posts featuring your purchased item(s). If you don’t post, you will be automatically charged the remaining balance, which is the amount difference between what you paid using Swaypay and the non-Swaypay original price. For example, if you purchase a $100 jacket, and the Swaypay pricing is $50 & 2 Instagram posts: You will be charged $50 up front when you checkout. You will be expected to post 2 Instagram posts featuring that jacket within 30 days. If you don't post within the guidelines and timeframe, we will charge your credit card an additional $50 (plus tax) on day 31. Even though your credit card is charged twice in this case, both charges will add up to the amount of just one order.

Why do I have 2 charges for a single purchase?

In the event that you do not publish the required number of social posts featuring your purchase, you will see a second charge on your card for the remainder balance of your Swaypay order. For example, if you were buying a $100 tshirt, and the Swaypay pricing is $50 & 2 Instagram Posts: You will be charged $50 up front.

How do returns and refunds work?

Returns, refunds, and exchanges are handled by and in accordance with the retailer where you originally purchased your items. Contact the retailer where you placed your order. As soon as the retailer processes and notifies Swaypay of the return, our customers are automatically refunded that amount and Swaypay cancels your pending posts. If you have a question about the refund amount, contact the retailer directly for details. If you receive a partial refund due to an exchange or the return of certain item(s) in your order, you still must submit your posts. If you return your full order for a refund, your pending posts will be cancelled.

When do I get my refund?

After you return your order to the retailer in accordance with their return policies, the retailer will process it. As soon as the retailer notifies Swaypay of the return, your pending posts will be cancelled on Swaypay’s dashboard and you will not be able to submit content for these posts or receive any cash back or credit. Refunds may take several business days to process once they are received by Swaypay. You may view the status of your orders in your Swaypay dashboard. Once the refund is received by our system it will be shown there. In rare cases during a return, some retailers will no longer be an Swaypay partner. When this happens, we no longer have a relationship with this retailer and the refund process is different. Contact the retailer directly to issue the refund directly.

Can I delete my posts if I return an order?
