UPDATED RESPONSE:
Our policy is to see why a customer wants to cancel and then to ensure there isn't a product swap, pause or other effort since we both agreed on terms we don't automatically cancel— but if someone has financial hardship, we will cancel— but block them from subscribing again, as we have to protect ourselves from subscription abuse. And that means loss of the ongoing 10% off; so we recommend pausing instead.
It is standard practice to offer one discount on first order than less on second that's not something only we do.
I'm not sure, without seeing your ticket, why, if you requested to cancel and pushed for that, it wasn't honored, and I apologize. If you can give us a call Id like to see what happened here. You can ask for Von, Im the founder, and I will ensure our team followed policy and make it right if not: 254-280-4341. We are on at PST so please call then to ensure we answer your call. Leave a message if we are on the other line so we can call back.
Regarding the discount, I didn't understand what you wrote before, but I do now; apologies. So it's 30% off the first order, then 10% off thereafter. I'm still not understanding where you are saying it says 30%...is that on your second order's emailed invoice? If so, I will need to pull that up, and that would be a technical issue from our subscription platform, Recharge. We don't make software, but we definitely want to hold accountability to them for features causing customer dissatisfaction or confusion, and I'd love to know more so we can submit a support ticket to their team and ask it to be fixed. Thank you for taking the time to write the updated response and to get to the bottom of this with us. We appreciate you.
ORIGINAL RESPONSE:
We only allow cancellation after the second order because we give the steeper 30% off discount on the product and we need it to make business sense.
We are upfront with the 10% and the 2nd order to cancel on the subscription area of the product page as you noted.
An ongoing 30% off every subscription order wouldn't make business sense for products like ours that cost more to make. We do full-panel batch testing and use superior craft extracts and ingredients while working to keep our standard pricing accessible so people who need our products can still afford them.
It's standard for companies to do the first discount at a higher rate, then move to 10%. We're sorry that didn't feel clear enough or like a fair practice. We can't give everyone continuously discounted products and make superior goods and pay our people well, so we hope you understand.
We aren't private equity. Our founder was a single mom who started with a store and a commitment to making better products with higher transparency. We are privately owned, and to do that while keeping quality standards, we have to have pricing that makes sense.
Our takeaway? You would like us to be clearer than we are currently across the touchpoints on our site, and we hear that. We will share that with our web team to see what we can change to improve clarity. So thank you for sharing your experience there.
For what it's worth, we do courtesy cancel if someone is having a tough financial situation and needs to cancel or genuinely got confused, because we want to ensure our products and business never put people in a bad situation, but we appreciate people who are given a discount following through with the stated terms otherwise— so we can continue to offer deals and fair pricing.
One place we do have a steep ongoing discount is with our Veteran discount. Mentioning that here in case you qualify for that. We are opening it up to medical professionals and teachers in the next few months. We can't do it for everyone, but for those who are community service professionals or have medical needs, we make the sacrifice.
Please feel encouraged if you qualify for any of those to apply with verification using the form on our our site.
