What is a refund?

What is a service credit?

A service credit is a billing adjustment that may be applied when Motive approves compensation for a service-related concern or loss.

What is a waiver?

A waiver removes or reduces an eligible charge after review. Depending on the issue, Motive may review waiver requests for some shipping, missing-item, or order-related concerns.

When Motive may review a request

Motive may review a refund, waiver, or service credit request in situations such as:

  • A shipping-related issue
  • A missing item or missing order concern
  • A subscription or billing concern that needs review
  • A service concern that may qualify for a service credit

These examples do not guarantee approval. Each request is reviewed based on the details of the issue.

What to know before contacting Support

Keep the following in mind:

  • Refund, waiver, and service credit requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
  • Some requests may require additional investigation before Motive can confirm the next step.
  • Some requests may depend on the type of issue, order history, or account status.
  • A request is not guaranteed to be approved.

How to request a refund, waiver, or service credit

Contact Motive Support and include the following details so your request can be reviewed faster:

  • Your company name
  • The email address associated with the account
  • Your invoice number or order number, if available
  • A short description of the issue
  • Any supporting details that explain the request

If the request is related to a shipment or order issue, include the relevant shipping or order details when possible.

What happens after you submit a request

After you contact Support, Motive may review the request and determine whether a refund, waiver, or service credit applies. In some cases, Support may ask for more information before confirming the next step.

If your account is financed through a vendor

If your account is financed through a third-party vendor, some billing-related questions may need to be handled by that financing provider instead of Motive.
