What the warranty covers

The 48-hour replacement warranty covers accounts that fail to function as specified at the time of delivery. Specifically, it covers:

  • Accounts that cannot be logged into with the delivered credentials.
  • Accounts that trigger immediate suspension or lockout upon first login attempt, where the lockout is not related to buyer-side behavior.
  • Accounts where the phone verification status is not as described - for example, an account listed as phone-verified that turns out not to have completed verification.
  • Accounts where the age or creation date differs materially from the listed specification.
  • Accounts that prompt immediate re-verification requests for the original phone number before any buyer action has been taken.

The warranty is a quality guarantee on the product as delivered, not a performance guarantee for accounts used in any particular way. It covers the condition of the account at delivery, not what happens to it during use.

02

The 48-hour window

The replacement window opens at the moment of delivery - when credentials are transmitted to your inbox or account dashboard - and closes 48 hours later. This window is fixed regardless of when you log in or when you begin using the accounts.

The practical implication: do not delay testing. If you receive a bulk order and plan to begin activation "in a few days," you may find that accounts that would have been covered by the warranty are now past the window by the time you discover problems.

The 48-hour policy exists for practical reasons. Account status can be affected by buyer actions quickly, and it becomes difficult to distinguish between delivery-side quality issues and usage-related failures as time extends beyond the first day or two. A fixed, predictable window creates a clear and fair framework for both sides.

For large bulk orders where testing all accounts within 48 hours is operationally challenging, batch-testing a representative sample immediately and flagging any quality patterns is a practical approach. If the sample reveals a systematic quality issue, that evidence supports a broader claim even before all accounts are individually tested.

03

What is not covered

Understanding what the warranty does not cover is as important as knowing what it does. The following are not covered:

Usage-related failures

If an account passes the first login successfully and then fails after you begin using it - whether from aggressive action frequency, suspicious behavioral patterns, IP issues, or any other usage factor - that is a usage failure, not a delivery defect. The warranty does not cover this.

Account changes after first login

Once you have logged in and made any changes to the account - settings, recovery options, linked services - the account is in a different state than it was delivered. Failures after modification are not covered by the warranty unless the failure is demonstrably unrelated to those changes.

Platform policy changes

If a platform implements a sweeping policy change that affects accounts of a particular type - for example, requiring re-verification for all accounts created in a specific period - that is a platform-side event outside the warranty scope.

Claims filed after 48 hours

Claims submitted after the 48-hour window are not eligible for coverage regardless of the nature of the failure. This is why testing on delivery is so important.

Accounts used outside their specified purpose

Accounts purchased for specific platform use and then used on different platforms or in ways that contradict the listed specification are not covered.

04

How to submit a claim

Claims are submitted through the support channel linked from your order confirmation or account dashboard. The process:

  1. Identify the failing accounts. Collect the credentials for all accounts that are failing and note the specific failure mode for each.
  2. Gather evidence. Screenshot the error or failure state for each account you are claiming. The specific evidence required is described in the next section.
  3. Submit before the 48-hour window closes. Open a support ticket with your order ID, the list of failing accounts, and the evidence screenshots attached.
  4. Wait for confirmation. The support team will review the submission and confirm which accounts qualify under the warranty terms.
  5. Receive replacements. Qualifying accounts are replaced from the same batch as the original order and delivered through the same channel as the original order.

Do not submit claims without evidence. Unsubstantiated claims cannot be processed. The evidence requirement protects both sides - it gives the support team the information they need to process quickly, and it prevents misuse of the warranty process.

05

Evidence we ask for

The evidence required for a warranty claim is designed to be easy to produce for genuine failures:

  • Screenshot of the login failure. A screenshot showing the error message or failure state when attempting to log in with the delivered credentials. This should clearly show the platform, the error, and ideally the credential being used.
  • Screenshot of immediate lockout or suspension notice. If the account was suspended on first login, a screenshot of the suspension notice.
  • Screenshot of re-verification prompt. If the platform is requesting re-verification of the original phone number before any action has been taken, a screenshot of that prompt.

You do not need to provide complex documentation. A clear screenshot of the failure state is typically sufficient. For bulk claims covering multiple accounts with the same failure pattern, a sample of screenshots (covering 10-20% of the claimed accounts) plus a spreadsheet listing all affected credentials is acceptable.

Do not share full credential lists in unsecured channels. The claim submission portal accepts file attachments. Use that, not email body text.

06

Our replacement source

Replacements come from the same batch as the original order. This is a specific and intentional commitment.

What "same batch" means: accounts sourced from the same creation window, same verification method, same phone geography, and same age tier as your original order. Replacements are not substituted with accounts of different specifications, lower age tiers, or different verification types.

Why this matters: if you ordered aged 1-year USA carrier Gmail accounts and one fails, the replacement is another aged 1-year USA carrier Gmail account from the same sourcing batch - not a fresh account, not an international-carrier account, not a different platform.

This commitment has a practical limit. If a significant portion of a batch fails - which would indicate a batch-level quality issue - we may source replacements from a comparable batch and disclose this to the buyer. In that case, buyers have the option to specify whether they accept the comparable batch or prefer a credit.

07

Typical turnaround

Warranty claims are processed in order of submission. For claims submitted with clear evidence during business hours, typical turnaround from submission to replacement delivery is 2-6 hours. Claims submitted during off-hours or on weekends may take up to 24 hours for the initial review before processing begins.

Bulk claims covering large numbers of accounts take longer to review than individual claims. A claim covering 10 accounts can typically be reviewed and processed in under an hour. A claim covering 200 accounts requires more review time to validate each unit and source the replacement quantity.

Replacement delivery follows the same automated process as original orders - once the replacement order is generated, credentials are delivered within 60 seconds to the same delivery channel as your original order.

If you have an urgent operational need and a pending warranty claim, note this in your claim submission. Expedited review is available for buyers who communicate time-sensitive operational context.

08

Test-on-delivery best practice

The single highest-impact practice for maximizing the value of the warranty is testing accounts immediately on delivery. This sounds obvious but is frequently skipped, especially for bulk orders where the assumption is "I'll test when I activate them."

A practical test-on-delivery workflow:

  1. When credentials arrive, immediately test a sample of 10-20% of the order. For small orders under 20 accounts, test all of them.
  2. For each tested account, confirm: login succeeds, no immediate suspension notice, no immediate re-verification request for the original phone number.
  3. If the sample test reveals a failure rate above expected (above 5% is worth investigating), test the remainder of the batch before beginning any activation workflow.
  4. File warranty claims for all failing accounts within the 48-hour window, before beginning activation of the passing accounts.

This sequence ensures that warranty claims are filed while the window is open, replacements arrive before you need them in your workflow, and you begin your warming or activation process with a validated fleet.

Accounts that pass the delivery test but fail during activation are by definition post-delivery failures. Whether those are covered by the warranty depends on whether the failure mode is clearly a delivery defect (the phone verification was never actually valid, for example) or a usage-related event. When in doubt, submit the claim with evidence - the support team will assess.

Commitment to buyers

The 48-hour warranty exists because we are confident in the quality of the inventory we source and the verification process we run. Suppliers who do not offer warranties are signaling something about their confidence in their product.

The warranty is not the only quality commitment. The other side of it is sourcing discipline - working with verified sources for real SIM verification, maintaining consistent age documentation across all listed variants, and delivering through an automated system that does not introduce human error into the credential transmission process.

When a claim is legitimate, it is honored quickly. When a claim falls outside the warranty scope, that is communicated clearly with the specific reason. Buyers who understand what the warranty covers and use the claim process as designed find it straightforward.

For buyers who have questions before purchasing about whether a specific use case or account type is covered, asking before the order is placed is always better than discovering the answer after. The support team can advise on whether the warranty applies to your intended workflow.

Frequently asked questions about the account warranty

Does the 48-hour window start when I receive credentials or when I first log in?

The 48-hour window starts at delivery - when credentials are transmitted to your inbox or dashboard - not when you first log in. This is why testing immediately on delivery is important. Waiting to test until you begin your activation workflow may put you outside the warranty window if that activation happens more than 48 hours after credential delivery.

What if I buy a large bulk order and cannot test all accounts within 48 hours?

Test a representative sample immediately - at minimum 10-20% of the order. If the sample reveals a systematic quality issue, file a claim for the full order based on sample evidence before the window closes. For very large orders where full testing within 48 hours is not feasible, discuss delivery scheduling with us before placing the order so we can structure delivery in testable batches.

If an account gets suspended after I start using it, is that covered?

Usage-related suspensions are not covered by the warranty. The warranty covers delivery-side quality defects - accounts that do not work as specified at delivery. If an account passes the first login test and then fails after you begin using it, that is a usage outcome rather than a delivery defect. Maintaining a reserve pool and having a replenishment process is the right operational approach for managing usage-related attrition.

How many accounts can I claim per order?

There is no cap on the number of accounts you can claim per order, as long as each claim is supported by evidence and falls within the warranty scope. If a batch has a systematic quality issue, it is in everyone's interest to identify and resolve it. Bulk claims covering large numbers of accounts from the same batch are processed as a unit rather than individually to keep the resolution timeline manageable.

What if the replacement account also fails?

If a replacement account fails in a way that is clearly a delivery defect and not related to your use, submit a follow-up claim. A second failure from the same batch is a signal of a batch-level quality issue, and we handle that differently from a single account failure. In that scenario, the resolution may involve sourcing from a different batch with your approval or providing account credit for the affected quantity.

Can I get a refund instead of a replacement?

The standard remedy under the warranty is replacement, not refund. This is consistent with how digital goods markets generally operate - a like-for-like replacement is the appropriate remedy for a defective unit. Refund requests are handled on a case-by-case basis for situations where replacement is not viable (for example, if the required variant is out of stock and no comparable alternative exists). Contact support with your specific situation.

Does the warranty apply to accounts purchased at bulk discount pricing?

Yes. The 48-hour replacement warranty applies to all orders regardless of order size or pricing tier. The warranty terms do not change based on the volume discount tier applied to the order. A 2000-unit order at the 20% discount tier carries the same per-account warranty coverage as a 10-unit order at standard pricing.
