Payment Policy
This policy describes accepted payment methods, settlement timing, fraud review triggers, and how billing disputes are handled on DogeSMS.
Updated: March 8, 2026
Supported payment methods
- Available payment methods may include card payments, local wallets, and supported crypto rails, depending on region, risk profile, and temporary channel availability.
- Fees, minimum amounts, and expected confirmation times are shown at checkout or in the top-up flow and may vary by provider.
- DogeSMS may enable or disable specific channels without notice when a processor, supplier, or compliance requirement changes.
Settlement and balance crediting
- Balances are credited after the relevant provider confirms settlement or after DogeSMS receives the required payment status callback or on-chain confirmation.
- Displayed USD values may reflect internal conversion logic when payment is made in another currency or asset.
- Temporary provider delays, chain congestion, failed callbacks, or manual fraud review can delay crediting even when a user has initiated payment.
Verification and fraud review
- Repeated failed top-ups, unusual payer identity patterns, inconsistent geography, or large deposits may trigger additional review before funds are credited or spending limits are increased.
- DogeSMS may request payment proof, account ownership verification, invoice information, or KYC materials when a processor or compliance workflow requires it.
- If requested verification is not completed, the platform may hold, reject, or reverse a top-up as permitted by processor and legal requirements.
Chargebacks and reversals
- Users must contact support before filing a chargeback when a settlement or service issue may be resolved through normal review.
- Chargebacks, payment reversals, or disputed crypto transfers may result in temporary balance holds, account restrictions, or permanent service refusal after investigation.
- DogeSMS may offset outstanding losses, fees, or previously consumed services against available balance where contractually and legally permitted.
Billing disputes
- Billing disputes should include payment proof, timestamps, order references, and the account email used for the transaction.
- Refund and settlement reviews rely on processor records, platform logs, and supplier side evidence where relevant.
- Final handling may differ by payment rail, card scheme rules, local regulations, and the refund policy.
For settlement, invoicing, or fraud review questions, contact support@dogesms.com with payment proof and the relevant account email.
