ZappyPRO vs Physical Card — Which Am I Paying For?

ZappyPRO vs Physical Card — Which Am I Paying For? A lot of customers get confused when they see a monthly charge after ordering their card. Here's the plain answer: The physical ZappyCard is a one-time purchase Your ZappyCard (the stand, wallet card, or service card you ordered) is paid for once, at checkout. There's no monthly fee. Your card will keep working forever — as long as you own it and keep its programmed URL active, it works. ZappyPRO is a completely separate, subscription-based product ZappyPRO is our automated SMS review request service. It's a separate product from the physical card, with its own sign-up and billing. Here's what ZappyPRO does: - Connects to your CRM or customer list - After a service is completed, it automatically sends a text message to the customer asking for a Google review - Saves you from having to manually follow up with each customer ZappyPRO is subscription-based (monthly or annual billing). It's designed for businesses that want to automate review requests at scale. Why the confusion? If you signed up for a ZappyPRO trial or subscription during or after your card purchase, you'll see that charge separately from your one-time card purchase. The two products are from the same company but are billed independently. The "14 Day SMS Autopilot" is a ZappyPRO trial — it's automated SMS, not your physical card. What to do if you're seeing a charge you didn't expect 1. Check whether the charge is for ZappyPRO (usually labeled on the statement) 2. If you want to cancel ZappyPRO, contact our support team with the email you used and the approximate charge date 3. We'll review the charge and cancel the subscription if that's what you want Your physical card stays active either way — cancelling ZappyPRO has no impact on the card you ordered.

Return & Refund Policy

Return & Refund Policy Our policy at a glance - Defective products: we replace them at no charge, usually without requiring you to return the original. - Non-defective products: we don't accept returns for items that have been opened or used. - Full policy page: zappycards.com/pages/refund-policy My card is defective — what do I do? If your card doesn't work after you've followed the setup guide and our troubleshooting steps, the NFC chip may be defective. 1. Contact support with your order number and a brief description of what's happening 2. If possible, include a short video showing the card being tapped and not responding 3. We'll send a replacement once we confirm. No need to return the original — you can keep or discard it. My order arrived damaged (cracked stand, broken legs) Our stands are made from acrylic, which is durable but can crack under heavy pressure during shipping. If yours arrived damaged: 1. Contact support with your order number 2. If you can, send a photo of the damaged item(s) and the packaging label — it helps us with carrier claims 3. We'll send a replacement right away. No return needed. I changed my mind — can I return for a refund? If the cards haven't been used and you've changed your mind, we unfortunately can't accept returns. Our return policy only covers defective products: zappycards.com/pages/refund-policy Before giving up, please reach out anyway. Most "I don't need these" situations come down to: - A setup issue that takes 5 minutes to fix - A URL problem that makes the card appear broken - A defective card we can replace We'd rather help you get value from your cards than have you set them aside. How do I cancel an order before it ships? If your order hasn't shipped yet, we can usually cancel it — but we need to move fast before it goes out. Contact support immediately with your order number so we can catch it in time. If your order has already shipped, cancellation is no longer possible — but you have two options: 1. Refuse delivery when the carrier arrives. The package will be returned to us and we'll process a refund once it arrives back. 2. Accept the package and return it per our policy. I used the wrong shipping address Like cancellations, address changes need to happen before the package ships. Contact support as soon as you notice with the corrected address (name, street, city, state, zip) and we'll try to update it before it leaves our warehouse. I ordered twice by mistake (duplicate order) Contact support right away with both order numbers. If neither has shipped, we can cancel the duplicate and refund it.
