Digital Downloads non-returnable items template for Shopify stores
Use this when writing non-returnable items for a digital downloads store. The wording helps customers understand eligibility, exclusions, timing, evidence, and support paths without promising refunds before review.
Refund policy section
List exclusions such as hygiene, food, custom, digital, final sale, or used items if they apply.
Useful review details: file access, download status, license scope, duplicate orders, and support screenshots.
CTA: Read exclusions
Support reply template
Review checklist
Before publishing
- Link the full Refund Policy from every summary or product page note.
- Use only refund, return, exchange, cancellation, final-sale, and shipping-cost terms the store truly follows.
- Do not promise refund approval, bank posting dates, exchange stock, cancellation, or delivery outcomes before review.
- Do not request passwords, full payment card numbers, or unrelated private data.
- Do not imply Shopify endorses the store or refund process.
Decision notes
| Field | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Refund intent | explain exclusions clearly |
| Store context | template, guide, worksheet, or file pack; file access, download status, license scope, duplicate orders, and support screenshots |
| Refund guardrail | Do not bury exclusions in tiny footer copy. |
| Category caution | avoid promising refunds after access if policy does not allow it |
Safe refund line
Refund and return requests are reviewed against the posted policy, order record, item condition, and evidence provided.
Detail line
Use concrete context such as file access, download status, license scope, duplicate orders, and support screenshots instead of broad refund promises.
Risk line
Refund policy risk to avoid: Do not bury exclusions in tiny footer copy. Also: avoid promising refunds after access if policy does not allow it.
