Refund Policy
Last updated: May 2026
24-Hour Refund Window
OPTAX offers a 24-hour satisfaction guarantee for new subscriptions. Eligible requests received within 24 hours of the initial subscription purchase may receive a full refund processed through Stripe after eligibility is verified.
Non-Refundable Actions
A subscription becomes non-refundable when any of the following occurs:
- A review-ready T2 preparation package has been generated or downloaded. Readiness checks and high-level previews do not by themselves close the refund window.
- A future CRA submission attempt is made after certified electronic filing becomes available.
- The charge is an automatic renewal charge.
- The 24-hour initial purchase refund window has expired.
Filing Credits and Cancellation
T2 filing credits are company-year units. Lite annual includes one credit for the subscription period and Professional annual includes two; annual allowance credits do not roll over. Monthly-earned credits are usable only while the subscription is active, current, and not scheduled to cancel, so paying the required months and then stopping does not leave a freely usable credit.
A standalone CA$199 T2 package covers one company-year and is valid for 12 months if unused. Annual Additional Company Add-ons are CA$149 and include one T2 credit locked to the added company; monthly add-on credits mature after four paid add-on monthly invoices, expire after 12 months if unused, require an active/current subscription that is not scheduled to cancel, and cannot transfer to another company.
Cancellation and Subscription Changes
You may cancel auto-renewal through the billing portal. Access continues until the end of the paid period unless a refund is processed. Paid users become visitors when paid access ends.
Upgrades and downgrades are managed through Stripe Checkout or Stripe Customer Portal when enabled for your account; portal activity alone does not override the refund limits in this policy.
How to Request a Refund
