All prices charged include VAT, unless otherwise stated.

The Company reserves the right to suspend or withhold services if payments are not received.


3. Order Holds, Cancellations, and Fees

3.1 Order Holds

Orders may be placed on hold within 7 days of signing the order form.

If an order remains on hold for longer than 14 days, the order will automatically be considered cancelled, and 100% of the total order amount will be non-refundable.


3.2 Cancellation of Orders

If the Client cancels an order after signing the order form, the Company reserves the right to charge a reasonable cancellation fee.


3.3 Fixed-Term or Contractual Orders

Where the Client enters into a fixed-term agreement, such as marketing or service contracts, and cancels before the agreed term has been fulfilled, the Company reserves the right to charge a reasonable cancellation fee of up to 50% of the total contract value.

This fee covers:

  • Administrative costs

  • Strategic planning

  • Work already completed

  • Work scheduled for future delivery

  • Allocation of company resources

This cancellation fee is applied in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), 2008, which permits reasonable cancellation charges for early termination of fixed-term agreements.

Marketing performance is influenced by several external factors beyond the Company’s control, including:

  • Market conditions

  • Competition within the industry

  • Consumer behaviour

Where content is created by the Company and approved by the Client before publication, such approval constitutes final acceptance and responsibility by the Client.


9. Social Media Accounts and Platform Access

Where the Company manages social media platforms on behalf of the Client, the Client remains the owner of their social media accounts.

The Company requires appropriate administrative or management access in order to perform services.

The Client agrees not to remove or restrict the Company’s access during the contract period if such access prevents the Company from delivering agreed services.

If access is removed or restricted, the Company will not be held responsible for failure to deliver services or marketing performance during that period.
