Oculus Launches New Refund Policy

Oculus Launches New Refund Policy

Oculus has introduced a new refund policy for content bought for Rift and Samsung Gear VR through the Oculus store.

For Rift users, content on that device can be refunded if it has been used for less than two hours within 14 days of purchase.

For Gear VR, users are free to request a refund on a product so long as they have used it for less than 30 minutes, and the refund is made within three days of the purchase. To prevent fraud, the product data has to be removed from the device before it can be refunded.

Refunds will be processed automatically and should take up to five days to go through. Users will lose access to the app during the refund process, though they will get it back if the refund is denied.

The new refund policy does not cover any films, bundles, content bought as part of a bundle, DLC, or IAPs. Oculus will also be keeping an eye out for users buying and refunding the same content repeatedly.
