Processing times may vary depending on your payment provider.

  • Minor quality variations within acceptable industry standards
  • Change of mind after order confirmation
  • Disputes raised more than 24 hours after collection
  • Issues caused by buyer's own handling or storage after collection
  • Force majeure events (natural disasters, civil unrest, etc.)

6. Partial Refunds

In some cases, partial refunds may be offered when:

  • Only a portion of the order has quality issues
  • Quantity is partially short
  • A mutually agreed resolution is reached between parties

7. Dispute Resolution

If you disagree with a refund decision:

  1. You may request a review by emailing disputes@agriloom.co.ke
  2. Provide any additional evidence or documentation
  3. A senior team member will review the case within 5 business days
  4. The decision of the review is final

8. Seller Accountability

Farmers and vendors who repeatedly cause refund situations may face:

  • Warning notifications
  • Temporary listing restrictions
  • Permanent account suspension

This helps maintain quality standards across the platform.

9. Platform Fees

In cases of full refunds, platform fees may also be refunded depending on the circumstances. Technical error refunds always include full fee refunds.
