Refund Policy

Business days: Saturday–Thrusday, excluding public holidays in Bangladesh (UTC+06:00).

Important: Madrasa does not process payments directly. All payments are handled by third-party payment providers and payment stores (for example SSLCommerz, bKash, Nagad etc.). Madrasa does not use in-app purchases (IAP). Where a store or provider controls refunds, Madrasa will assist but may not be able to directly issue the refund.
