10. Paid Services, Pricing & Payment

Certain features of the Service, including the Psychometric Assessment, require payment. By purchasing a paid service:

• Pricing: The price for each paid service is displayed on the relevant page at the time of purchase. Prices are in Indian Rupees (INR) and include all applicable taxes.
• One Payment, One Test: Each payment for the Psychometric Assessment unlocks exactly one (1) test attempt. Once you begin and submit the test, the attempt is consumed. To take the test again, a new payment is required.
• Promotional Pricing & Discounts: We may offer discounted prices, promotional offers, or coupon codes from time to time. These offers are subject to their own terms, including validity periods and usage limits. We reserve the right to modify or discontinue any promotion at any time.
• Coupon Codes: Coupon codes are subject to specific terms such as expiry dates, maximum uses, and per-user limits. Coupons cannot be combined, transferred, or exchanged for cash. We reserve the right to invalidate any coupon that we believe is being used fraudulently or in violation of the coupon's terms.
• Payment Processing: All payments are processed through Razorpay, a third-party payment gateway. Your payment is subject to Razorpay's terms of service and privacy policy. We do not store your credit/debit card details or net banking credentials on our servers.
• Payment Confirmation: After successful payment, you will receive a confirmation and your test will be unlocked immediately. If there is a delay, please check your internet connection and try refreshing the page.

11. Referral Program

• Eligibility: The referral program is available to all registered users with a verified account on Beyond10th.
• How It Works: Each user receives a unique referral code and link. When a new user signs up using the referral code and purchases the psychometric test, the referrer earns the applicable referral reward and the referred user receives the active referral discount shown in the product flow.
• Referral Balance: Referral earnings are tracked as a referral balance (not a wallet or stored-value instrument). This balance is merely a record of payouts owed to you by GreyAlpha Technologies. It does not constitute a prepaid instrument, digital wallet, or deposit of any kind. The referral balance cannot be used to purchase goods or services on the platform.
• Payout Terms: You may request a payout once your referral balance reaches the minimum payout amount displayed on your referral dashboard. Payouts are processed within 5-7 business days via bank transfer to the bank account details you provide. GreyAlpha Technologies verifies payout details before processing and reserves the right to request identity verification (name, phone number, and bank account ownership) before releasing any payout.
• Refund Reversal: If a referred user's payment is reversed, refunded, or charged back for any reason, the corresponding referral reward will be deducted from your referral balance. If your balance is insufficient to cover the reversal, the deficit will be adjusted against future earnings.
• Earning Cap: GreyAlpha Technologies may impose per-user or program-wide earning caps at any time. Any such cap will be communicated via the referral dashboard or email before it takes effect.
• Anti-Fraud: Self-referral, fake or duplicate account creation, collusion, automated or bot-driven referrals, and any activity intended to manipulate or abuse the referral program are strictly prohibited. GreyAlpha Technologies uses automated and manual review to detect such activity. Violations will result in immediate forfeiture of all referral earnings, reversal of any payouts already made (which the user agrees to return), and suspension or termination of the user's account.
• Restrictions: Each user can only be referred once. Referral discounts cannot be combined with coupon codes.
• Program Changes: GreyAlpha Technologies reserves the right to modify reward amounts, payout thresholds, earning caps, pause, or terminate the referral program at any time. Any earned balance before program termination will be honored subject to anti-fraud review.
• Tax Responsibility: Referral earnings may be taxable under applicable Indian tax laws (including TDS provisions where applicable). Users are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes on referral income.

12. Refund & Cancellation Policy

• Money-Back Guarantee: If you are not satisfied with your psychometric assessment report, you may request a full refund within 48 hours of receiving the report by emailing contact@beyond10th.com with your reason for dissatisfaction. Refunds are processed at our sole discretion after reviewing the request.
• Refund Window: The 48-hour refund window begins from the time the report is generated and delivered to your account. Requests received after this period will not be eligible for a refund.
• How to Request: Email contact@beyond10th.com with your registered email, transaction ID, and reason for requesting a refund. We will respond within 48 hours.
• Refund Processing: Approved refunds will be processed to the original payment method within 5-7 business days.
• No Cancellations After Test Start: Once you begin the test, the attempt is consumed. However, you are still eligible for the money-back guarantee after receiving your report.
• Unused Test Attempts: If you have paid for a test but have not yet taken it, the test access remains available in your account indefinitely.
• Technical Issues During Test: If you experience a technical issue during the test (browser crash, internet disconnection, power failure, etc.), your progress is saved automatically. You can resume the test from where you left off. If you are unable to resume or if data is lost due to a genuine platform error on our end, please contact our support team at contact@beyond10th.com within 48 hours of the incident. We will review your case and, at our sole discretion, may provide a replacement test attempt or a full refund.
• Payment Failures: If a payment is deducted from your account but the test is not unlocked, please wait for 15 minutes as the payment may still be processing. If the issue persists, contact our support team with your payment reference/transaction ID. We will verify the payment status and unlock your test or, if the payment was not successfully captured, the amount will be automatically reversed by your bank within 5-7 business days.
• Duplicate Payments: If you are charged twice for the same test due to a system error, please contact our support with both transaction IDs. We will verify and issue a reversal for the duplicate charge.
