Refunds and cancellations

Refund & Cancellation policy – version of 4 October 2026.

This page explains, in plain words, when and how you get your money back. It summarises our Terms of Sale, which prevail if there's any difference, and it never reduces your legal rights as a consumer.

At a glance

Your situationWhat you get
eSIM not delivered within 30 minutesFull refund. You can take it back yourself from the payment contract, or ask us.
Order failed (the eSIM couldn't be issued)Full refund, sent automatically.
You cancel before the eSIM is deliveredFull refund.
eSIM delivered but faulty, and we can't fix itFull refund.
eSIM delivered and workingNo refund, even if you don't install or use it (see section 4).

1. Your eSIM wasn't delivered within 30 minutes

Your payment waits in the Satello payment contract until your eSIM is delivered. If it isn't delivered within 30 minutes, you can get it back yourself, without waiting for us:

  1. Open your order page, with the wallet that paid connected.
  2. Click "Reclaim my payment".
  3. Confirm the transaction in your wallet. The full amount goes straight back to the wallet that paid as soon as the transaction is confirmed.

This transaction costs a small network fee, which your wallet shows before you confirm. If you'd rather not pay it, just contact us: we'll send the refund ourselves at no cost to you. Once the payment is reclaimed, the order is cancelled.

2. Your order failed

We buy your eSIM from Cryptorefills, on your behalf and in your name. If Cryptorefills can't issue it, or if we have to refuse the order (for example because the plan is no longer available), we refund the full amount to the wallet that paid, automatically. You don't need to ask.

3. You want to cancel before delivery

Until your eSIM is delivered, you can cancel your order and get a full refund. Write to us through our support page at satello.io/support with your order number; you can also use the model withdrawal form in our Terms of Sale. Delivery usually takes a couple of minutes, so cancelling is only possible during that short window. If the eSIM hasn't arrived after 30 minutes, you can also reclaim your payment yourself (section 1).

4. Once your eSIM is delivered

At checkout, you ask us to deliver your eSIM immediately and you acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once it's delivered. An eSIM is digital content not supplied on a physical medium, so the 14-day right of withdrawal no longer applies after delivery (article L221-28, 13° of the French Consumer Code; article 16(m) of Directive 2011/83/EU).

So we don't refund a delivered eSIM that works, including when:

  • you haven't installed it, or your travel plans changed;
  • your phone isn't eSIM-compatible or is locked to an operator;
  • you deleted the eSIM from your phone;
  • data or days were left unused when the plan ended.

Before you pay, check that your phone supports eSIM and is carrier-unlocked, and that the plan covers where you're going.

5. Your eSIM doesn't work

First, check the basics:

  • you're in a destination covered by your plan;
  • your device is eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked;
  • the Satello eSIM line is switched on and selected for mobile data;
  • data roaming is switched on for the Satello eSIM line (this doesn't create roaming charges on our plan);
  • you've restarted your device once after arriving.

If it still doesn't work, contact us with your order number and, if possible, a screenshot of your mobile network settings. We'll help you fix it and, if needed, take it up with Cryptorefills for you. If the eSIM can't be installed or won't connect and the problem can't be fixed, we refund you in full. This commitment comes on top of your legal rights.

6. How refunds are paid and how long they take

  • Refunds go to the wallet that paid, in the token you paid with (USDG, or the same number of $SATELLO if you paid in $SATELLO), unless you expressly agree to something else.
  • We pay the network fee for refunds we send. You only pay a network fee if you choose to reclaim the payment yourself (section 1).
  • A self-service reclaim is immediate. Refunds we send usually go out within 2 working days, and always within 14 days at the latest.
