Refund policy
Last updated: June 2026
Golf Sim Genies (a DBA of Equipify Market LLC) wants every customer to feel confident in their purchase. This policy covers returns, cancellations, and refunds for orders placed through golfsimgenies.com. Because we carry products from several manufacturers, some terms vary by brand. The general terms below apply to all orders, and brand-specific terms are listed in the "Brand-Specific Return Policies" section.
Order acceptance
Placing an order does not guarantee acceptance. Your order is considered accepted only when we send a written order confirmation by email. Until then, we may decline or modify the order, for example due to inventory or pricing errors.
Return window
Unless a brand-specific window applies (see below), you may request a return within 30 calendar days of delivery for most items in their original, unused condition and original packaging.
How to start a return
Email support@golfsimgenies.com with your order number and the item(s) you would like to return. We will reply within one business day with an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) number and shipping instructions. Returns sent without an RMA may be refused.
Customer responsibilities
- The customer is responsible for return shipping costs on non-defective items.
- Items must be returned in their original packaging, unused, with all included accessories, manuals, and protective materials.
- For freight shipments, the customer must arrange and pay for return freight unless the item arrived damaged or defective.
Damaged or defective items
- For freight deliveries, inspect the shipment before signing. If damage is visible, note it on the Bill of Lading (BOL) and either refuse the shipment or accept it with a clearly written damage note. Damage not noted at delivery may not be claimable.
- Contact us within 24 hours of delivery at support@golfsimgenies.com with photos of the damage, the BOL note (if applicable), and your order number.
- We will coordinate with the supplier or carrier to file a claim and arrange a replacement, repair, or refund at no cost to you. Defective items are handled under the manufacturer's warranty, and we will help facilitate the claim.
Refund timing
Once we receive and inspect your returned item, refunds are issued to the original payment method within 5-10 business days. Your bank or card issuer may take additional time to post the refund.
Chargebacks
Please contact us at support@golfsimgenies.com before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute. Most issues can be resolved quickly, and we will work with you to find a fair solution.
Items not eligible for return
- Custom-built or custom-dimensioned items (after production begins)
- Items returned without an RMA
