The Seller and the Selling User hereby entitle G2A.COM to charge the Users (or Sellers) the full due amount to the bank account of G2A.COM. From the funds collected on its account, G2A.COM deducts its due commissions and fees from the Seller and the Selling User, by retaining its amount on the G2A.COM’s bank account, whereas the remaining part shall be transferred to the Seller’s or the Selling User’s bank account.

The Seller and the Selling User agree that the payment transfer for the Seller shall follow within 30 days after the money reaching the G2A.COM’s bank account and after setting the payout with chosen payout option; for the Selling User within 14 days after the moneys reaching the G2A.COM’s bank account.
5.6 The commission paid by the Seller to G2A.COM is non-returnable, in particular in a situation when the payment, which shall be settled in relation to these Terms and Conditions, made by the User (or other Seller) for products or services purchased from the Seller, would have to be returned by the Seller to the User (or other Seller) (e.g. as a result of the User’s complaint caused by faults of the products or services provided by the Seller). Due to the commission being non-returnable, the Seller is not entitled to claim any compensation from G2A.COM. Moreover, G2A.COM may retain on its bank account the sums of back commissions, contractual penalties, costs which the Seller shall cover or compensations owed from the Seller.
5.7 The provision included in 5.6 above does not concern the Selling Users. In their case, G2A.COM undertakes investigation (especially compensatory investigation defined in 10 below) in order to clarify the reasons for demanding refund to the User. Depending on the conclusions of such investigation, the funds shall be returned by the Selling User (including transfer of the funds from the G2A.COM’s bank account to the User, instead of to the Selling User’s bank account) or shall not be returned to the User, who may vindicate his claims against the Selling User at court or in any other way.
5.8 Excluding the examples defined above, G2A.COM is not entitled to dispose of and manage the funds transferred by the Users/Sellers in relation to purchases of products or services from the Seller or the Selling User.

The Seller and the Selling User are obliged to provide reliable and complete information needed to prepare the product descriptions, in compliance with real product features such as quality, producer or brand. G2A.COM is obliged to prepare reliable product descriptions, corresponding to the product’s content. The product descriptions are available for every product under the tab „product details”. However, G2A.COM assumes no responsibility for the compliance of the product description with its content, in a situation when the Seller or the Selling User misinforms G2A.COM regarding the product, its access to a given gaming platform, etc. The Seller and the Selling User hereby entitle G2A.COM to use the information defined here and provided by them free of charge, to prepare descriptions of products being sold, including modifications, alterations, translation of this content into other languages, etc.

G2A.COM assumes responsibility against Users for the sold product in terms of order compliance, correct functioning, potential physical and legal faults as well as prompt delivery. G2A.COM’s responsibility concerns solely these products, for which the Users pay to the Seller by means of a credit card. The responsibility described here does not constitute taking over the Sellers’ responsibility by G2A.COM. It only concerns participation in this responsibility in the scope mentioned above which means in particular that the Seller still assumes the responsibility against the User in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. Participation in the responsibility does not mean that G2A.COM becomes the owner or co-owner of the product sold by the Seller (nor that G2A.COM is to be so treated) – the Seller remains the exclusive owner of the sold product.
5.12 Every User may purchase access to the security program for buyers („G2A Shield”). The fee for G2A Shield is displayed for each given product and is exclusive for individual products, in connection to which the User bought the G2A Shield.

Subject to the provisions of point 5.15, G2A Shield allows the User to receive the replacement product in case the purchased product was faulty or different from the description. If such a replacement cannot be granted (and subject to the provisions of point 5.15,) the User who bought the G2A Shield shall receive a full refund for the said purchase.
5.13 The User may choose to purchase G2A Shield subscription (the “subscription”). The subscription is free of charge for one month from the purchase (“initial term”) and shall last for undefined period of time unless earlier terminated by User. After the initial term is lapsed the User shall pay to Company the remuneration in the amount of 1 EUR (+VAT and fees due to payment services providers) per each month. If the User does not want to continue the subscription after the initial term he/she needs to unselect subscription in his/hers account panel which can be done only during the last two days of the initial term. After the initial term the subscription can be terminated at any time. If the User deactivates the subscription and after that he/she decides to purchase the subscription again then the remuneration due to the Company amounts to 2 EUR (+VAT and fees due to payment services providers) per each month and shall be paid each time he/she purchases the subscription. The aforesaid remuneration for the subscription will be automatically deducted from Users credit card or G2A Wallet or any other available funds and the User accept on this.
5.14 Subject to the provisions of point 5.15, each User who purchases the subscription shall receive a full refund or the replacement product in case the purchased product was faulty or different from the description, regardless the product was purchased on the Site or from the Merchant integrated within G2A.COM ecosystem. However, to benefit from the subscription the product shall be purchased with G2APay solution. For the avoidance of doubt the “Merchant integrated within G2A.COM ecosystem” shall mean a third party (business entity) operating an online shop who has integrated G2APay solution within this online shop. To get the refund the User has to contact with G2A Shield specialist via Livechat communicator. The refund or replacement product shall not be granted if the User’s account was blocked or deleted or the User’s access to the Site was blocked due to violation of this Terms and Conditions.
5.15 In the case of a product having the form of an in-game item (excluding DLC keys and gift-links) costing EUR 100 or less the User shall be entitled to return such product pursuant to the G2A Shield or G2A Shield subscription services within 30 days from the initial purchase date. Upon successful product return, User will receive reimbursement of 60% of the product purchase price paid by the User. Product(s) referenced in this section costing more than EUR 100.00 shall not be covered by the G2A Shield or G2A Shield subscription services and sales of those products are final. G2A reserves the right to refuse to issue a replacement or refund if in G2A’s sole discretion G2A detects that a User has engaged in fraud, deception or abuse of the G2A Shield. Moreover, in the event that G2A detects a User has engaged in fraud, deceit or abuse after the issuance of a refund G2A reserves the right to reverse any refund already issued including withdrawal of any funds in said User’s G2A Wallet.
5.16 The time to process User’s refund request depends on the User’s rating and his buying history in G2A.COM ecosystem. The said rating is created by Users. For each transaction, Users can choose to rate each other by leaving a comment. Buyers can leave a positive, negative, or a neutral rating, negative or neutral rating plus a short comment. Sellers/Selling Users can leave a positive rating and a short comment.

If a product is returned the paid amount shall be returned to the User (the Seller and the Selling User agree to this). The fee for putting a product on sale via the Site and fees for payouts made by the User or the Seller (specified in the table of fees and commissions) will not be refunded.
11.8 A returned product is sent to the Seller or Selling User and can be sold again within the Service if this product is not defective.
