Refund policy

Mazehost wants you to know the host fits before you commit. New shared hosting plans come with a 30-day, no-questions-asked money-back window. VPS plans work differently: the server is reserved for you once it is set up, so it is not refundable, but you can cancel anytime.

1. Shared hosting · 30 days

New Altus, Grandis, and Magnus shared-hosting plans are refundable for 30 days from the start of the initial term. No questions, no exit interview. Email support@mazehost.com from the address on the account and we issue the refund to the original payment method. Refunds typically show back on your statement within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank.

2. VPS

Altus VPS, Grandis VPS, and Magnus VPS plans are not refundable once the server is set up, because the machine is reserved for you from the first minute. You can cancel anytime from the client area or by emailing support@mazehost.com, and the plan will not renew. This applies to VPS orders placed from 7 October 2026; earlier orders keep the terms they were sold under.

3. Renewals

Auto-renewal charges on shared hosting are refundable for 72 hours after the renewal invoice is paid. Beyond 72 hours, the renewal stands until the end of that renewal term. VPS renewals are not refundable, so cancel before the renewal date if you no longer need the server. You can disable auto-renewal at any time from the control panel or by contacting support. This stops the next charge without affecting the current paid term.

4. Domains

Domain registrations and renewals are non-refundable once the registry has accepted the transaction, including the free domain included with Grandis and Magnus plans. This is a registry policy, not ours. Once a .com is registered in your name, neither we nor the registrar can reverse the charge.

If you refund a shared-hosting plan within the 30-day window and the free domain has already been registered, the domain remains yours at no additional cost. We push it to a standalone registration under your account so you can manage renewals directly.

5. Add-ons

  • Paid control-panel licenses (Plesk, cPanel) are non-refundable once activated. The license key is already billed to us by the vendor.
  • Location surcharges and storage upgrades are part of the plan they're attached to. They refund if the plan itself refunds within its window.

6. How to request a refund

  • Email support@mazehost.com from the email address on the account, or open a ticket from the client area.
  • Tell us which service you want refunded. You don't need to justify it. The policy windows above are the whole test.
  • We confirm the refund by email and reverse the charge to the original payment method. Usually same business day, always within five business days.
  • If you paid via bank transfer or a method that doesn't support reversal, we ask you for payout details and send the refund that way.

7. What we don't refund

  • Accounts terminated for Acceptable Use Policy violations (illegal content, abuse of third-party systems, fraud).
  • Shared hosting renewal charges more than 72 hours old, and VPS renewal charges.
  • Any plan or add-on that has passed its refund window.
  • VPS plans ordered from 7 October 2026, once the server is set up. You can still cancel anytime so the plan does not renew.
