At Aurora, we understand that managing your subscriptions and billing can lead to questions about eligibility for refunds. Our services are designed to support your needs in a seamless manner. Refund eligibility primarily depends on your subscription management and service usage. Below are some specific scenarios relevant to Aurora users that may qualify for refunds:
