PAYMENT TERMS

We provide a service in the form of access to games and Virtual Items. In the Service you may use "real world" money to obtain a limited license to use Virtual Items and/or other goods or services.

How it Works:

You get a limited license to Virtual Items by visiting the purchase page in one of our games and providing billing authorization through the platform on which You are playing (e.g., Apple iOS, Android).

On 7 Minute Games.com, the payment page will let you know what you can use to pay when you make your purchase. We may change what you can use to pay from time to time, at Our sole discretion. Virtual Items purchased in Our games on other platforms such as Apple iOS, or Android will be subject to those platforms' payment terms and conditions. 7 Minute Games does not control how you can pay or how any refunds may be issued on those platforms. Please review those platforms' terms of service for additional information.
