Withdrawal & Refund Policy
Effective date: July 1, 2025
This policy explains how you can withdraw available funds from your Zavelo Holdings account, how matured investment plan proceeds are handled, and the circumstances under which refunds may be processed.
1. Available balance withdrawals
Funds held in your account’s available balance — not committed to an active investment plan — may be withdrawn at any time, subject to identity verification and AML checks.
To initiate a withdrawal:
- Log in to your Zavelo dashboard and navigate to Withdraw.
- Enter the withdrawal amount (minimum $50.00 USD or equivalent).
- Select your withdrawal method (bank transfer or cryptocurrency).
- Confirm your identity via two-factor authentication if prompted.
- Submit the request. You will receive an email confirmation immediately.
Processing timeframes
Bank transfer (SEPA / Faster Payments): 1–3 business days
International wire (SWIFT): 3 - 5 business days
Cryptocurrency: Within 24 hours (network confirmation times vary)
All withdrawals are subject to standard AML verification. For large or unusual withdrawal requests, additional documentation may be requested before processing.
2. Investment plan maturity proceeds
When an investment plan reaches its maturity date, the principal and net return (after applicable fees) are automatically credited to your available balance. You will receive an email notification when the proceeds are credited.
Maturity proceeds credited to your available balance may be withdrawn immediately using the standard withdrawal process or reinvested in a new plan. There is no automatic reinvestment; you retain full control over how maturity proceeds are used.
3. Early redemption
Investment plans are structured with defined durations. Early redemption — withdrawing principal before the plan maturity date — may be available for certain plans, but is subject to the following:
- Early redemption eligibility is stated explicitly on the plan card at the time of subscription.
- Where permitted, an early redemption penalty of up to 5% of invested principal may apply. The exact penalty percentage is disclosed at subscription before you commit any funds.
- Accrued returns earned to the date of early redemption may be partially or fully forfeited, depending on the specific plan terms.
- Early redemption requests are processed within 5–10 business days.
Plans that do not offer early redemption will clearly state “No early redemption” on the plan card. Do not invest in these plans unless you are comfortable committing funds for the full stated duration.
4. Refund policy
Given the nature of investment products, refund eligibility is limited. The following situations may result in a refund of deposited funds:
Duplicate deposit
If the same deposit is processed twice due to a technical error, the duplicate amount will be returned within 5 business days.
Failed plan subscription
If a deposit is made for a specific plan that subsequently fails to activate due to a system error, the deposit will be returned in full within 3 business days.
Pre-investment cancellation
If you deposit funds but have not yet allocated them to an investment plan, you may withdraw the full deposited amount at any time with no penalty.
Platform error
If a demonstrable platform error results in financial loss not attributable to market movement or investment risk, we will investigate and, where liability is established, process an appropriate remedy within 10 business days.
Investment losses caused by normal market performance, plan risk materialisation, or decisions made by the account holder are not eligible for refund. All investments carry risk, as described in our Risk Disclosure.
