Credit & Refund Policy
Effective Date: July 8, 2026
This Refund Policy explains how MotionLab handles credit usage, payment refunds, failed generations, and billing disputes.
1. Credits and Generation Costs
MotionLab may use credits or usage-based balances for generation, editing, rendering, and other paid features. Credits are deducted when a job starts, not only when a final output is delivered. The credit cost depends on the selected tool, model, duration, resolution, quality settings, provider, or other generation configurations.
2. Technical Failures
If a generation fails because of a technical issue on MotionLab's side, a provider failure, queue failure, infrastructure failure, or another system error, MotionLab may automatically or manually return the credits used for that failed job.
A credit refund means credits are returned to your MotionLab account. It does not automatically mean a cash/payment refund.
3. No Refund for Creative Dissatisfaction
AI generation is probabilistic and creative results can vary. Used credits are generally not refundable because:
- you dislike the output;
- the output is not what you imagined;
- the prompt was unclear;
- you selected the wrong settings;
- you uploaded the wrong input;
- the generated result needs more iterations;
- the output is artistically weak;
- the output is not suitable for a specific client;
- another model would have worked better.
4. Policy Blocks and Prohibited Content
If a job is blocked, rejected, removed, or flagged because it violates our Terms of Service or Acceptable Use Policy, credits will not be refunded.
5. User Mistakes
Credits are generally not refundable for user mistakes, including accidental submissions, duplicate generations, wrong model selection, wrong aspect ratios, wrong durations, wrong prompts, or changing your mind after starting a job.
6. Delays
Generation time can vary based on queue load, model provider performance, GPU availability, and system conditions. A delay does not automatically qualify for a refund unless the job ultimately fails or MotionLab determines that a refund is appropriate.
7. Payment Refunds
Payment refunds are separate from credit refunds. If you purchased credits, a subscription, or another paid feature through a third-party payment provider or merchant of record (LemonSqueezy), payment refunds may be subject to that provider's terms and processing rules.
8. Duplicate Charges and Billing Errors
If you believe you were charged incorrectly, contact us with your account email, transaction date, amount, order/invoice ID, and description. If we confirm a billing error, we will correct the charge, issue credits, or issue a refund.
9. Chargebacks and Abuse
If you file a chargeback without contacting support first, MotionLab may suspend your account during review. Fraudulent or abusive chargebacks may result in account termination and loss of access. MotionLab may deny refunds or suspend accounts for refund abuse, repeated violations, payment fraud, or credit exploitation.
10. Subscriptions
Some MotionLab features (such as Motion Studio) may include free daily usage limits and, where offered, an optional paid subscription. Subscriptions are billed through our merchant of record (LemonSqueezy) and renew automatically until canceled. Canceling stops future renewals; access continues until the end of the paid period. Unless required by law, partial billing periods are not refunded.
Reaching a free or fair-use daily limit is not a refund event. Subscriptions and generation credits are separate: canceling a subscription does not affect your credit balance, and credit refunds do not affect subscription billing. Outputs you already exported to your account remain available regardless of subscription status.
11. Changes
MotionLab may update this Refund Policy from time to time. The version in effect at the time of your purchase or generation will apply.
