Winni Terms and Conditions
Effective date: [24 April 2026]
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website www.winni.in, the Winni mobile applications, customer support channels, and all products and services offered by Winni (collectively, the “Platform”).

Please read these Terms carefully before using the Platform or placing an order. By accessing the Platform, creating an account, placing an order, making a payment, or otherwise using our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the Platform or place an order.
1. About Winni and contracting entity

2. Scope of these Terms
These Terms apply to:

3. Nature of Winni’s business and fulfilment model
Winni is an online gifting and celebration platform. We display a curated catalogue of products and services that customers can order through the Platform. We do not operate as an open marketplace where third-party sellers independently list their own products for sale to customers.
Orders placed on the Platform may be fulfilled by Winni directly, Winni stores, local vendors, bakeries, florists, fulfilment partners, courier partners, or international fulfilment partners. You acknowledge that many products, especially cakes, flowers, plants, food products, and customized products, are prepared, procured, arranged, packed, or delivered locally through such partners.
Winni remains your primary customer-facing platform for order support, cancellation, refund, replacement, and complaint handling, subject to these Terms.
4. Eligibility and account responsibility
You may use the Platform only if you are competent to contract under applicable law. If you use the Platform on behalf of a company, organization, family member, friend, or any other person, you confirm that you have authority to do so and to provide the necessary details for the order.
You are responsible for:
- Providing accurate account, sender, recipient, delivery, contact, and payment information;
- Keeping your account credentials confidential;
- All orders placed through your account or using your contact details, unless you promptly notify Winni of unauthorized use;
- Ensuring that the recipient is available and willing to receive the order; and
- Ensuring that any content, images, messages, names, or instructions provided by you are lawful, accurate, and suitable for fulfilment.
Winni may refuse service, cancel orders, suspend accounts, or restrict access if we reasonably suspect fraud, misuse, abusive conduct, unlawful activity, payment risk, policy abuse, or violation of these Terms.
5. Product information, images, and availability
We try to ensure that product descriptions, prices, images, availability, delivery options, and other information on the Platform are accurate and updated. However, product images are indicative and intended to help you understand the nature, style, and approximate appearance of the product.
Because many products are handmade, locally prepared, seasonal, perishable, or fulfilled by local partners, the actual product delivered may vary slightly from the image or description in terms of design, shape, arrangement, decoration, packaging, container, flower shade, flower variety, accessory, brand, or presentation.
The following rules apply:
- Cakes: Cake weight and flavour should match the order. Cake design, finishing, cream pattern, decoration, toppings, writing style, and presentation may vary slightly depending on the baker, local availability, and product type.
- Flowers: Flower variety, colour shade, freshness, wrapping paper, basket, vase, decorative material, and arrangement may vary depending on season, locality, and availability.
- Plants: Plant size, leaf count, shape, colour tone, planter design, and natural appearance may vary. Minor dry leaves, natural marks, or variation in plant growth do not automatically constitute damage.
- Gifts and hampers: Packaging, accessories, containers, brands, or presentation may vary depending on availability, provided the product remains substantially similar or equivalent.
- Personalized products: Final output depends on the image, text, design, and material selected. Colour reproduction, print placement, cropping, and sharpness may vary depending on the uploaded content and printing process.
- Food items: Food products may vary in decoration, appearance, ingredient presentation, packaging, and local preparation style.
Winni may modify, suspend, discontinue, correct, or update any product, service, price, offer, content, or availability on the Platform at any time. Placing an order does not guarantee availability of a product, delivery slot, vendor, delivery area, or delivery partner.
6. Product substitution and unavailable items
If a product, ingredient, flower, cake design, packaging, brand, gift item, or component is unavailable after your order is placed, Winni may contact you and offer one or more alternatives.
Where a substitute is required, we will generally seek your approval before providing a different product. If you do not approve the proposed substitution, Winni may cancel and refund the unavailable item or the affected part of the order, as applicable.
In urgent cases, special-day rush periods, same-day orders, international orders, or cases where we are unable to reach you within a reasonable time, Winni may decide to cancel the affected item/order and process the applicable refund. Winni will not be liable for any indirect, emotional, consequential, or occasion-related loss arising from non-availability or substitution.
7. Pricing, taxes, and offers
Prices displayed on the Platform may include or exclude taxes, delivery charges, convenience charges, premium delivery charges, packaging charges, customization charges, or other fees, depending on the product and checkout flow. The final amount payable will be displayed at checkout before payment.
Winni may change prices, delivery fees, offers, discounts, coupons, and promotional benefits at any time. A price or offer is valid only for the period and conditions stated on the Platform or in the relevant campaign.
Coupons, discounts, cashback, promotional credits, or wallet credits:
- May be subject to minimum order value, product category, city, delivery type, payment mode, user eligibility, or campaign-specific restrictions;
- May not be combined with other offers unless expressly permitted;
- May be cancelled, reversed, or withheld in case of misuse, duplicate accounts, fraudulent activity, bulk abuse, or violation of these Terms;
- Have no cash value unless expressly stated; and
- May be withdrawn or modified by Winni at any time, subject to applicable law.
8. Payments and payment security
You must pay the full order value and applicable charges at the time of placing the order unless Winni expressly offers another payment option.
Payments may be processed through third-party payment gateways, banks, card networks, UPI providers, wallet providers, or other regulated payment partners. Winni does not store your full card number, CVV, UPI PIN, net-banking credentials, or similar payment authentication information. If a payment instrument is saved or tokenized, such storage/tokenization is handled by the payment gateway or regulated payment partner, based on the authorization and consent applicable to that partner.
Winni may request additional verification or documents where required for payment security, fraud prevention, high-value orders, suspicious transactions, chargebacks, or compliance purposes. Winni may cancel or hold an order if payment is not received, payment fails, payment is reversed, fraud is suspected, or verification is not completed.
9. Order placement, confirmation, and acceptance
When you place an order and payment is successfully received, Winni may immediately send an order confirmation by email, SMS, WhatsApp, app notification, or other communication channel. This confirmation records that your order request has been received and accepted for processing, subject to product availability, vendor/partner feasibility, delivery area, delivery slot, payment verification, and these Terms.
Winni may later discover that a product, partner, delivery slot, address, delivery area, or service is unavailable or infeasible. In such cases, Winni may:
- Contact you to explain the issue;
- Offer a substitute product, alternate delivery slot, alternate delivery address, or other feasible solution;
- Cancel the affected product or order; or
- Process a full or partial refund, as applicable.
If Winni cancels an order or item due to unavailability, serviceability, pricing error, operational impossibility, payment issue not caused by you, or any reason attributable to Winni, the eligible amount paid by you for the cancelled order/item will be refunded as per the refund policy below.
10. Customer, sender, and recipient information
You are responsible for providing complete and accurate sender, recipient, and delivery details, including recipient name, mobile number, complete address, pincode, city, landmark, building name, flat/room number, floor, department/ward/room number, institution/hotel/hospital details, security instructions, and any other information required for delivery.
You confirm that you have the necessary authority or basis to provide the recipient’s name, address, phone number, and delivery instructions to Winni for fulfilling the order.
Winni may contact the customer, sender, recipient, alternate contact, security desk, receptionist, courier partner, vendor, or delivery partner where reasonably required for order confirmation, delivery, substitution, address correction, fraud prevention, failed delivery handling, or complaint resolution.
For surprise orders, Winni will try not to disclose sender details unless necessary. However, sender details may be disclosed to the recipient or relevant person if required for delivery confirmation, recipient safety, refusal handling, dispute resolution, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or to complete the delivery.
11. Delivery policy - general principles
Winni will make reasonable efforts to deliver the order on the selected delivery date and within the selected delivery time slot, where such option is available. However, except where expressly stated otherwise in writing by Winni, delivery dates and time slots are best-effort estimates and not guaranteed commitments.
Delivery may be affected by product availability, vendor capacity, local conditions, recipient availability, address accuracy, traffic, weather, festivals, strikes, curfews, elections, public holidays, security restrictions, gated premises, hospital/hotel/institution rules, courier delays, international partner constraints, force majeure events, or other operational limitations.
By placing an order, you agree that:
- Selected delivery date and time slot represent your preferred delivery schedule;
- Winni will try its best to deliver within the selected date/time slot, but exact delivery is not guaranteed;
- For premium delivery services, if the product is delivered but the premium delivery service fails due to Winni’s fault, Winni’s liability will normally be limited to refund of the relevant premium delivery/service charge, not the entire order value;
- Delivery may be made to the recipient, an authorized person, security guard, reception, front desk, neighbour, family member, colleague, hospital/hotel/institution representative, or any other person reasonably appearing to be authorized to receive the order at the delivery location; and
- Delivery or attempted delivery may be treated as completed in the circumstances stated in these Terms.
12. Delivery slots and premium delivery services
Winni may offer standard delivery, same-day delivery, fixed-time delivery, midnight delivery, early morning delivery, express delivery, courier delivery, international delivery, or other delivery options depending on the location, product category, and checkout availability.
The following rules apply unless otherwise stated on the product page or checkout page:
- Standard delivery: Delivery will be attempted on the selected delivery date and within the available delivery window, subject to feasibility.
- Same-day delivery: Same-day delivery is accepted only for eligible products, cities, and cut-off times. Winni will try to deliver on the same day but does not guarantee exact time delivery.
- Fixed-time delivery: Winni will try to deliver during the selected fixed-time slot. If only the fixed-time promise fails but the product is delivered, Winni may refund the fixed-time delivery charge, if charged and if the delay is attributable to Winni.
- Midnight delivery: Midnight delivery usually means delivery around the midnight delivery window shown at checkout. Exact delivery at 12:00 AM is not guaranteed.
- Early morning / express / special handling delivery: These services are subject to city, vendor, product, traffic, and operational feasibility. If the product is delivered but the premium service fails due to Winni’s fault, the remedy is limited to refund of the premium charge paid for that service.
- Heart-shape / special cake-making charges: If the base cake is delivered but the paid special-shape/service component is not fulfilled due to Winni’s fault, Winni may refund only the specific special charge paid for that component.
- Special days: During festivals, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Raksha Bandhan, Diwali, Holi, Christmas, New Year, and other high-demand days, delivery may take longer than usual. Exact time delivery is not guaranteed during such periods.
13. Single delivery attempt for perishable and local-delivery products
Most Winni orders involve perishable or time-sensitive products such as cakes, flowers, plants, chocolates, sweets, food products, and occasion-specific gifts. For such products, Winni generally makes only one delivery attempt.
If delivery is not completed during the first attempt due to a reason not attributable to Winni, the order may be treated as completed and no refund will be provided. Examples include:
- Recipient unavailable;
- Recipient phone unreachable or switched off;
- Wrong, incomplete, or insufficient address;
- Wrong pincode, wrong city, or non-serviceable location selected by customer;
- Premises locked;
- Security gate, society, office, hospital, hotel, government office, hostel, resort, campus, event venue, or other premises not allowing entry;
- Recipient refusing to accept the order;
- Sender/customer providing wrong recipient details;
- No person available to accept the order;
- Delivery partner reaching the location but nobody accepting the order;
- Customer/recipient not responding within a reasonable time during delivery coordination; or
- Delivery completed at gate, reception, security desk, neighbour, or alternate person based on instructions or reasonable delivery practice at that location.
Where feasible, Winni may contact the customer or recipient to resolve the issue, obtain an alternate contact number, seek address correction, or deliver to an alternate person such as a neighbour, security guard, receptionist, family member, colleague, or other responsible person. However, Winni is not obligated to keep the delivery partner waiting beyond a reasonable time or to make a second attempt without additional charges.
A second delivery attempt for perishable products may be considered only at Winni’s discretion, subject to product condition, product expiry, vendor availability, delivery partner availability, distance, and payment of additional delivery or product charges by the customer.
14. Courier delivery
Some products are shipped through courier or logistics partners. Courier delivery dates shown or selected at checkout are indicative only and are not guaranteed. Courier timelines depend on product preparation, dispatch, courier pickup, courier network, transit conditions, holidays, strikes, weather, local restrictions, and recipient availability.
Courier partners may make multiple delivery attempts as per their own process. Winni does not control the exact courier delivery time, delivery attempt timing, route, or last-mile courier decision.
After dispatch, courier orders may not be cancellable, modifiable, or redirectable. If a courier order is delayed beyond the selected occasion date, Winni will not normally provide a refund solely for delay. Exceptional cases, such as unusually long delay, lost shipment, severe damage, or delivery failure attributable to Winni/courier, will be reviewed case by case.
If a courier shipment is returned due to wrong/incomplete address, recipient unavailable, recipient refusal, restricted entry, non-payment of applicable charges, or customer/recipient-side issue, the order may be treated as completed or cancelled without refund, depending on the product type and shipment condition. Re-shipping, if feasible, may require additional charges.
15. International orders
Winni may offer international delivery for selected countries, cities, products, and categories. International orders are generally fulfilled through local third-party fulfilment partners in the destination country. Available products are shown on the relevant country/category pages and may include cakes, flowers, gifts, hampers, or other locally available products.
For international orders:
- Winni will try to deliver on the selected delivery date, subject to local partner feasibility, local time zone, product availability, and local restrictions;
- Product appearance, brand, design, packaging, flower variety, cake style, and gift components may vary based on local availability;
- Products are generally prepared or procured within the destination country, and customs/duties are normally not applicable unless specifically stated;
- Delivery failure, recipient unavailability, wrong address, restricted entry, recipient refusal, and complaint rules will broadly follow the same principles as domestic orders; and
- Winni’s liability for international orders is limited as stated in these Terms.
Because international delivery represents a smaller and partner-dependent part of Winni’s business, Winni may cancel, modify, or restrict international orders where fulfilment is not feasible and process applicable refunds.
16. Deliveries to special locations
For delivery to hospitals, hotels, hostels, offices, gated societies, government buildings, event venues, campuses, wedding venues, religious places, resorts, railway stations, airports, or other restricted locations, you must provide complete and accurate details and ensure that the recipient or an authorized person can receive the order.
Winni may not be able to personally deliver to the recipient’s room, ward, desk, cabin, gate, terminal, hall, or restricted area if entry is not permitted. Delivery to reception, security desk, front desk, hospital/hotel staff, neighbour, colleague, or other responsible person may be treated as successful delivery.
If the recipient has checked out, shifted, is unavailable, cannot be located, is not permitted to receive items, or if entry is denied by the premises, the order may be treated as completed and no refund will be provided, unless the failure is attributable to Winni.
17. Address change and rescheduling
Address change, recipient detail change, delivery date change, or delivery slot change requests are subject to product type, vendor assignment, preparation status, dispatch status, delivery location, partner feasibility, and time remaining before delivery.
Winni may allow changes free of cost if the request is made sufficiently in advance and the order has not been assigned, prepared, customized, printed, dispatched, or otherwise committed. If the request is made close to delivery, Winni may charge additional delivery, handling, vendor, or operational charges, or may reject the request.
Once an order is prepared, customized, printed, dispatched, out for delivery, or assigned to a courier/partner in a manner that cannot reasonably be reversed, changes may not be possible and cancellation/refund may not be available.
18. Customer duties for delivery
To help us complete delivery successfully, you must:
- Provide complete and correct recipient name, address, pincode, city, phone number, and landmark;
- Ensure that the pincode matches the actual delivery address;
- Provide a reachable sender and recipient phone number;
- Ensure recipient availability during the selected date/time slot;
- Inform the recipient, security, reception, office, hotel, hospital, or alternate person where required;
- Respond promptly to calls, messages, WhatsApp, SMS, email, or app notifications from Winni or delivery partners;
- Check product restrictions at hospitals, hotels, offices, hostels, events, gated societies, airports, railway stations, or other restricted premises; and
- Provide accurate personalization details, message text, spelling, photos, and special instructions.
Failure to comply with these duties may result in delayed delivery, deemed delivery, cancellation without refund, additional charges, or inability to fulfil the order.
19. Proof of delivery and deemed delivery
Winni may rely on one or more of the following as proof of delivery, attempted delivery, or deemed delivery:
- Delivery partner status update;
- Recipient name, signature, or acknowledgment;
- Delivery photo, where available;
- WhatsApp, SMS, email, or app confirmation;
- Courier tracking status;
- Vendor or fulfilment partner confirmation;
- Call records or delivery coordination notes;
- Delivery to gate, security, reception, neighbour, front desk, family member, colleague, or other responsible person at the location; or
- Any other reasonable evidence available to Winni.
Delivery photo may not be available for every order because it depends on vendor, partner, recipient, premises rules, and operational feasibility. Absence of a delivery photo alone does not mean that delivery was not attempted or completed.
20. Cancellation policy
Cancellation eligibility depends on product type, delivery date, selected time slot, vendor assignment, product preparation, personalization, printing, dispatch, courier handover, and operational feasibility.
You may request cancellation by contacting Winni customer support. A cancellation request is not confirmed until Winni accepts it in writing, through the Platform, email, SMS, WhatsApp, or support confirmation.
20.1 Cancellation charges for eligible orders
Unless a product-specific rule says otherwise, and provided the order has not already been prepared, printed, customized, dispatched, or put out for delivery, the following cancellation charges may apply:
| Cancellation request timing | Cancellation treatment |
|---|---|
| More than 24 hours before the selected delivery time slot/date | Eligible for cancellation subject to 10% cancellation charge on the order/item value |
| Between 12 and 24 hours before the selected delivery time slot/date | Eligible for cancellation only if fulfilment has not started; 20% cancellation charge may apply |
| Within 12 hours before the selected delivery time slot/date | Normally not cancellable; up to 100% cancellation charge may apply |
| After preparation, printing, customization, dispatch, courier handover, or out-for-delivery status | Not cancellable; no refund, except at Winni's discretion where partial recovery is possible |
These charges are intended to cover payment gateway charges, vendor blocking, preparation planning, operational cost, wastage risk, customer support cost, and loss arising from late cancellation.
20.2 Non-cancellable orders
The following orders are generally non-cancellable once placed or once processing starts:
- Same-day delivery orders;

20.3 Cancellation by Winni
Winni may cancel an order or item if:

- Fulfilment is prevented by force majeure, safety, legal, or operational reasons.
If Winni cancels an order for a reason attributable to Winni, the eligible amount paid by you will be refunded. If cancellation is due to customer-side issue, fraud, wrong details, recipient refusal, unavailable recipient, or violation of these Terms, refund may not be available.
21. Refund policy
Refunds are processed only where expressly permitted under these Terms, product-specific terms, campaign terms, or written confirmation from Winni.
21.1 Refund method
Winni’s preferred refund method is the original source payment method used for the order. Where technically or operationally required, or where the customer chooses, small-value adjustments, promotional benefits, delivery charge refunds, special-charge refunds, or goodwill credits may be provided through Winni Wallet or another eligible method.
Winni Wallet is not a bank account, prepaid payment instrument, stored-value account, or withdrawable balance facility. It is governed by the separate wallet terms in these Terms.
21.2 Refund timelines
Once a refund is approved, Winni will normally process the refund from its end within 24 hours. Actual credit to the customer’s source account depends on the payment gateway, bank, card network, UPI provider, wallet provider, or other payment partner and may take up to 5 working days or such additional time as may be required by the relevant payment ecosystem.
Wallet credits, promotional credits, or small-value adjustments, where applicable, are normally credited within 24 hours after approval.
21.3 Full refund situations
Subject to verification, a full refund may be provided where:
- Winni cancels the order due to product/service unavailability and no acceptable substitute is provided;
- Winni cannot fulfil the order due to a reason attributable to Winni;
- Duplicate payment is received for the same order and verified;
- A wrong product is delivered and Winni cannot provide replacement or correction;
- A product is severely damaged before delivery due to a reason attributable to Winni and no replacement is feasible; or
- Applicable law requires a refund.
21.4 Partial refund situations
A partial refund, service-charge refund, delivery-charge refund, replacement, coupon, wallet credit, or other remedy may be offered where:
- Only part of the order is unavailable or cancelled;
- Only the premium delivery service failed but the product was delivered;
- A paid special component such as heart-shape making, add-on, card, message, or accessory was not provided;
- A minor defect is verified but replacement is not practical;
- A complaint is verified and a proportional remedy is appropriate; or
- Winni decides to offer a goodwill adjustment.
Any goodwill refund, credit, replacement, or compensation does not create a precedent or legal obligation for future cases.
21.5 No refund situations
Refunds will not normally be provided where:
- Delivery failed due to wrong/incomplete address, wrong pincode, recipient unavailable, recipient unreachable, premises locked, recipient refusal, restricted entry, or customer/recipient-side issue;

22. Complaints, replacement, and evidence requirements
Winni takes product and delivery complaints seriously. To help us investigate fairly, complaints must be raised within the applicable window and supported with clear evidence.
| Issue type | Complaint window | Evidence required |
|---|---|---|
| Cakes, flowers, plants, food, sweets, chocolates, and other perishable products | Within 2 hours of delivery | Clear photos/videos of product, packaging, invoice/order ID, and issue |
| Wrong or damaged non-perishable product | Within 48 hours of delivery | Clear photos/videos, packaging, invoice/order ID, and issue |
| Missing item/add-on/component | Within 24 hours of delivery | Photos/videos of full package received, order ID, and description of missing item |
| Courier damage | Within 24 hours of receipt | Photos/videos of damaged product, outer packaging, inner packaging, courier label, and order ID |
Winni may reject complaints raised after the applicable window or without adequate evidence. For perishable products, the customer/recipient should inspect the product immediately on delivery and before consumption, disposal, refrigeration failure, or alteration.
Depending on the verified issue, Winni may offer replacement, correction, partial refund, full refund, coupon, wallet credit, or another reasonable remedy. The remedy will be determined by Winni based on product type, severity, evidence, timing, vendor assessment, and feasibility.
Minor or cosmetic issues, such as slight design variation, flower shade variation, minor packaging difference, handwriting variation, minor cream decoration variation, missing complimentary message card, or natural plant variation, may not qualify for refund or replacement unless they materially affect the product.
23. Personalized and customized products
Personalized products include products customized with photos, names, messages, designs, engravings, prints, images, artwork, logos, or other customer-provided content.
By uploading or providing content, you confirm that:
- you have the necessary rights, permissions, and authority to use the content;
- The content does not infringe any copyright, trademark, privacy right, personality right, publicity right, or other third-party right;
- The content is not unlawful, obscene, hateful, defamatory, abusive, discriminatory, violent, sexually explicit, politically inflammatory, religiously offensive, misleading, or otherwise unsuitable;
- The content does not contain malware, hidden code, or harmful material; and
- The content is accurate and suitable for the intended product.
Winni may reject, cancel, or ask for replacement content if the uploaded image/text is poor quality, unclear, unsuitable, offensive, unlawful, infringing, or technically unfit for printing/customization.
If the uploaded image is low-resolution, blurred, dark, cropped incorrectly, over-compressed, or otherwise poor quality, Winni may ask you to provide a better image. If you do not provide suitable content and still ask us to proceed, you accept that the final product may have poor print quality, cropping, alignment, colour, sharpness, or appearance, and refund/replacement will not be available for such issues.
Winni may provide tools to crop, align, preview, or adjust images. Winni’s team may also make reasonable adjustments to improve print output. However, Winni does not guarantee exact colour, alignment, cropping, brightness, or screen-to-print matching.
Personalized products may be cancelled only before printing, engraving, production, editing, or customization starts. Once customization begins, personalized products are generally non-cancellable and non-refundable except for verified manufacturing defect, wrong product, wrong customization attributable to Winni, or severe damage before delivery.
You retain ownership of your uploaded content. You grant Winni and its partners a limited license to use the content only for processing, customizing, producing, packaging, delivering, supporting, and resolving issues related to your order, and for legal/security purposes where required.
24. Food, cakes, allergens, and safety
Food products, cakes, sweets, chocolates, and similar edible items may be prepared or procured through local fulfilment partners operating under applicable food laws and standards.
You are responsible for reviewing product information and informing Winni before placing the order if the recipient has any allergy, dietary restriction, religious preference, ingredient restriction, medical condition, or other food-related requirement.
Unless expressly confirmed by Winni in writing for a specific order:
- Allergen-free products are not guaranteed;
- Cross-contamination-free preparation is not guaranteed;
- Eggless/vegetarian cake will be provided only if selected or clearly stated for the product;
- Design and decoration may vary based on local preparation style;
- Products should be consumed within the recommended period and stored appropriately; and
- Winni is not responsible for issues caused by delayed consumption, improper refrigeration, mishandling, exposure to heat, or storage after delivery.
25. Winni Wallet and promotional credits
Winni Wallet, if shown on the Platform, is a promotional and adjustment ledger for eligible credits, discounts, cashback, goodwill credits, small-value adjustments, delivery charge adjustments, special charge adjustments, or campaign benefits. It is not a bank account, prepaid payment instrument, stored-value facility, deposit account, e-money product, or withdrawable balance.
The following terms apply to Winni Wallet:
- Customers cannot add money from bank account, card, UPI, or other payment method to create wallet balance.
- Wallet balance may be issued only by Winni as promotional credit, cashback, goodwill credit, small-value adjustment, refund adjustment selected by customer where legally/operationally permissible, or campaign benefit.
- Wallet credits may be used only for eligible purchases on Winni, subject to product, category, campaign, minimum order value, city, and checkout restrictions.
- Wallet credits cannot be withdrawn, transferred, sold, exchanged for cash, converted into bank refund, or used outside Winni.
- Each wallet credit may have an expiry date. Unused credits expire automatically after the applicable expiry period and may be auto-debited from the wallet.
- If multiple credits exist, the credit expiring earliest will be consumed first. For example, if you have Rs. 500 in wallet, where Rs. 200 expires tomorrow and Rs. 300 expires after four months, and you place an eligible order using Rs. 300 wallet amount, Winni may use Rs. 200 from the earliest-expiring credit and Rs. 100 from the later-expiring credit.
- Wallet credits may be restricted from use with certain coupons, offers, bulk orders, corporate orders, discounted products, or special campaigns.
- If an order paid partly through wallet is cancelled or refunded, the wallet portion may be restored to wallet with its original or revised expiry, at Winni’s discretion and subject to campaign terms.
- Winni may reverse, cancel, withhold, or expire wallet credits in case of fraud, misuse, duplicate accounts, technical error, order cancellation, refund abuse, chargeback, policy violation, or campaign withdrawal.
- Wallet credits have no interest, no cash value, and do not create any debtor-creditor, banking, deposit, or payment instrument relationship between Winni and the customer.
- Winni may modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue Winni Wallet or any wallet feature in accordance with applicable law and business requirements.
