Delivery & Refund Policy | Borderless Teacher

Policies

Delivery & Refund Policy

Applies to digital products and services purchased through Borderless Teacher's checkout.

Scope of this policy

This policy covers the two products sold through checkout on this website: the International Teaching Career Guide ($47) and the Dossier Review ($197). Both are processed through Paystack.

The U.S. Admissions Advisory is not sold through an online checkout. It is arranged directly with Matthews after an introductory call, and pricing and terms are agreed individually for each engagement. If you've booked advisory services directly, your engagement terms are whatever was agreed in writing with Matthews, not this policy.

Currency

Prices are displayed on this website in U.S. Dollars for reference. Because our Paystack account is registered in South Africa, all payments are processed and charged in South African Rand (ZAR). If you're paying with a card issued outside South Africa, your bank may apply its own conversion rate and foreign transaction fee — this is outside our control.

Delivery policy

Both products are delivered digitally — there is no physical shipment.

International Teaching Career Guide ($47)

Delivered automatically by email immediately after payment is confirmed by Paystack, with a direct download link to the guide (PDF). If you don't receive it within a few hours, check your spam folder first, then contact us — see below.

Dossier Review ($197)

This is a service, not an instant download. After payment, we'll email you instructions for submitting your CV, teaching philosophy, and any other materials for review. Written feedback is typically delivered within 5–7 business days of receiving your complete materials.

If a delivery email doesn't arrive, or a link doesn't work, contact us at matthews@borderlessteacher.com and we'll resolve it directly — this is treated as a delivery failure, not a refund request.

Refund policy

International Teaching Career Guide ($47)
  • Full refund if the guide was never delivered, the file is corrupted or inaccessible, and the issue isn't resolved after we've been given a chance to fix delivery.
  • Full refund if requested within 48 hours of purchase, provided the download link has not yet been accessed.
  • Because this is a digital product delivered instantly, we do not offer refunds once the guide has been downloaded, beyond the 48-hour window above.
Dossier Review ($197)
  • Full refund if you cancel before Matthews has begun reviewing your submitted materials.
  • No refund once written feedback has been delivered, since the service has been rendered at that point.
  • If you believe the feedback delivered does not match what was described on the offer page, contact us — we review these on a case-by-case basis.

To request a refund, email matthews@borderlessteacher.com with your order details (the email used at checkout and the product purchased). Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method via Paystack in South African Rand (ZAR) and typically appear within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank or card issuer. If you paid with a non-South African card, the amount you see refunded in your local currency may differ slightly from what you originally paid, due to exchange rate movement between the two dates — this is a bank conversion effect, not an adjustment on our part.
