Purchase of Multi- Check
- You may have paid upfront for a package that allows you to purchase a certain number of checks (as mentioned on our pricing page). In that case, you will be provided with a promo code in your order confirmation email, which is valid for 1 year from the date of purchase of the Multi-Check Package.
This means that you would have to use the remaining checks in your package within that 1-year period and post that you will not be able to use that code to redeem your checks or get a refund for any unused checks under that Multi-Check Package. - The initial payment will be counted as your first check. To redeem a check for another vehicle, you can simply copy the promo code on the order confirmation email and click on "Redeem Prepaid Check" on our home page. You will be able to proceed further after entering the registration number and promo code.
- We accept payments via the payment methods set out on the payment page. You must pay in full before receiving a report or promo code under a Multi-Check Package. No refund/credit will be issued for Multi- Check made for the same vehicle registration number.
- If you are purchasing a Multi-Check, we store your details (like email address, and vehicle registration details) on our server. This will enable us to track the number of Multi -Check remaining on your package/account.
