Refund policy
When membership and event fees are refunded, and how refunds are processed.
Last updated: 13 August 2026. Draft pending committee review.
Overview
This policy covers our paid services — membership and event registrations. All refunds go back to the original payment method via Razorpay.
Membership fees
- We operate pay-then-verify: your fee is taken at application, and membership activates only after the committee verifies your INSEAD alumni status.
- If we cannot verify your alumni status, your application is declined and your fee is refunded in full, automatically.
- If you cancel your application before verification completes, we refund in full — see the Cancellation policy.
- Once your membership is verified and active, the fee is non-refundable for the purchased term.
Event registrations
- If the Association cancels an event, or materially changes its date or venue, paid registrations are refunded in full.
- Otherwise event registrations are non-refundable, including if you are unable to attend.
How refunds are processed
We initiate eligible refunds within 7 business days of the decision. Razorpay returns the money to your original payment method; banks and card issuers typically post it within 5–10 business days. We can share the refund reference on request.
