Subscription and Purchase Terms

Last updated: 17.10.2026 · Version: 1.7

This document sets out the procedures and principles relating to paid subscriptions such as WIN Premium offered through the WIN mobile application (“Application”) and in-app purchases. This text is an integral part of the Terms of Use and applies together with it.

⚠️
  • Purchase channel: Initially, all purchases are made through the Apple App Store and/or Google Play Store (in-app subscription).
  • Trial and virtual items: No free trial is offered for WIN Premium. There is no virtual currency, coin or credit purchasable in the app. One-time purchased deck packs and promotional gift decks are account-bound usage rights (see Sections 3.5–3.7).
  • Choosing, the free allowance, Picked You and messaging: Viewing profiles and being chosen are free; choosing is a paid feature (Section 3.7). From app version 2.0, for male accounts, seeing who picked you and sending messages in new chats are part of WIN Premium; for other accounts they are free (Section 3.8).
  • Cancellation: Subscription cancellation is performed through the store account where the purchase was made. Deleting the Application or deleting the account does not automatically cancel the subscription.
  • Refunds: Refund requests are, in most cases, subject to Apple/Google procedures. Your mandatory consumer rights are reserved.
  • Right of withdrawal / exception: Under Law No. 6502 and the Distance Contracts Regulation, the right of withdrawal and its exceptions may apply. Exceptions may apply where performance of the digital service has begun with your consent.
  • Abuse: Where fraud, abuse or breach is suspected, certain transactions may be blocked; the account may be restricted (see Terms of Use).

Section 1: Introduction and Acceptance

This section explains the general framework regarding the purpose/scope of the document, related documents, and information duties in electronic form.

1.1 Purpose and scope

This text governs the conditions relating to paid subscriptions offered by WIN (in particular WIN Premium), one-off in-app purchases, and virtual items.

This text relates primarily to the provision of digital services, rather than an e-commerce relationship involving physical product sales or shipping/delivery.

1.2 Parties and contractual relationship

The parties, operator information, and basic contractual relationship are set out in the Terms of Use. This text constitutes special provisions as regards payment/subscription.

1.3 Related documents and order of precedence

The following documents apply together as regards paid services and payment processes:

If there is a conflict between this text and other texts:

  • on payment/subscription/paid features, this text,
  • on all other matters, the Terms of Use

take precedence.

1.4 Information in electronic form

WIN aims to provide the necessary information in electronic form before and at the moment of purchase, within the framework of Law No. 6502 on Consumer Protection, Law No. 6563 on the Regulation of Electronic Commerce (ETK), and the Distance Contracts Regulation.

In transactions concluded over the internet/application, the consumer’s access to the price and basic information immediately before incurring a payment obligation (Distance Contracts Regulation, Articles 6(2) and 8) is of critical importance.

1.5 Changes and entry into force

WIN may update this text due to changes in legislation, product/package changes, and business needs. For material changes, notification is given, where possible, via in-app notification and/or email.

If you have an existing subscription; changes such as package scope, price, or renewal principles are, as a rule, sought not to be applied to your detriment before your current billing period ends. Mandatory cases and store rules are reserved.


Section 2: Definitions

The key concepts used in this section (subscription, package, billing period, store, virtual item, etc.) are used with the same meaning throughout the text.

Section 3: Paid Products and Scope

This section explains the framework for WIN Premium scope, package options, promotions, one-off purchases, gift decks, the free allowance and, for male accounts, the scope of Picked You and messaging.

3.1 WIN Premium (subscription)

In addition to free features, WIN may offer certain advanced features for a fee under WIN Premium. The scope of Premium is as shown on the in-app purchase screen and in related help/FAQ content.

Examples of what may be included in Premium scope include, without limitation:

  • Continued choosing: Ability to keep choosing after the free allowance (see Section 3.7) has been used,
  • Deck allowance: 12 decks that renew every 12 hours,
  • Online/Offline status: Ability to see other users’ online (online/offline) status,
  • Hide profile: Option to hide the profile completely (hide profile),
  • Deck filtering: Deck filtering feature (advanced filtering options),
  • Near the top: Appearing near the top of the “Picked You” list of the person you picked.
  • Picked You and sending messages (male accounts): Seeing who picked you, starting a chat with them and sending messages in new chats (see Section 3.8).
  • Score display: Ability to see your own score and scores users give to you and others (Intelligence, Politeness, Fun).
  • Priority access to new profiles: Priority access to newly joined profiles in decks.
  • More visibility in decks: Your profile may be more likely to be shown in other users' decks; no particular number of views or picks is guaranteed.
  • Voice messages and astrology: Sending voice messages and detailed astrological compatibility analysis.
  • Additional benefits: Additional features such as monthly usage statistics and analysis screens may be offered.
⚠️

Purchasing Premium features does not guarantee a certain number of matches/messages/meetings. Matching dynamics, recommendation systems, and user behaviour are multi-factor (see Terms of Use).

3.2 Package options (weekly/monthly, etc.)

WIN Premium is offered as auto-renewing subscription packages, weekly and monthly. Weekly and monthly packages cover the same Premium feature set; the main difference is the billing period and current fee (details are shown on the purchase screen). If additional durations or campaign packages are offered later, these are also stated clearly on screen within the same framework.

PackageBilling periodRenewalPurchase channel
WIN Premium – Weekly1 weekAuto-renewingApp Store / Google Play
WIN Premium – Monthly1 monthAuto-renewingApp Store / Google Play

3.3 Free trial

No free trial is offered for WIN Premium. The subscription starts as a paid subscription upon your purchase confirmation.

3.4 Campaign / promotion / discount (if any)

WIN may offer campaigns, promotions (e.g. use of Promo Code), or discounted prices for certain user groups or periods. Relevant legislation, in particular the Price Tag Regulation, is taken as the basis for display of discounts and price transparency (see Section 5.3).

3.5 One-time purchases

In addition to the WIN Premium subscription, one-time (consumable) purchases are offered through the stores: deck packs (1 / 2 / 4 decks). These products are not subscriptions and do not renew automatically; the price and conditions shown on the purchase screen and this text apply.

  • Deck packs: The number of decks purchased is added to your account balance. Deck packs are offered on the screen shown when your 12-hour deck allowance runs out and, from app version 2.0, on the screen shown when your free allowance runs out (2-deck pack); which packs are shown on these screens may change. Purchased decks are used once your 12-hour deck allowance (or your free allowance) is exhausted, can be used without a WIN Premium subscription until they are used up, and have no separate expiry date. Deck packs only add picks (for male accounts, see Section 3.8). A deck results in at most one pick; a purchase does not guarantee that the chosen person will reply or start a conversation.
  • Visibility Week: Visibility Week has not been sold since 25.09.2026; rights purchased before that date remain valid under these terms until they expire. For 7 days from the moment of purchase, your profile takes part in deck draws with a higher weight (×2). If purchased again during that period, the period is extended by 7 days. Visibility Week does not give any right to pick or any deck allowance and does not guarantee any number of views, being picked, messages or conversations.
  • Purchased decks and Visibility Week are tied to your account; they cannot be transferred to another account or exchanged for cash. For the use of the purchased deck balance, see also Section 3.7.

3.6 Virtual items

There are no purchasable virtual-currency items such as “coin/diamond/credit” in the app. If such virtual items are offered later, the provisions in Section 10 apply. The deck packs and Visibility Week (sold until 25.09.2026) in Section 3.5, the free deck allowance in Section 3.7 and gift decks are usage rights tied to the account; they cannot be transferred to another account or exchanged for cash. Gift decks are promotional; they have no monetary value and are not refundable.

3.7 Free allowance and the subscription requirement for choosing

Viewing profiles, being chosen and receiving notifications are provided free of charge; the scope of the "Picked You" list and of messaging is set out in Section 3.8. Choosing (finishing a deck and making a pick) is a paid feature. A "deck" is a set of up to 4 profiles (sometimes fewer) shown two at a time; finishing a deck results in at most one pick.

Each account receives a one-time free allowance of 2 decks. The allowance is counted over the lifetime of the account and does not renew. The lifetime free allowance and the subscription requirement in this section do not apply to accounts whose profile gender is "Female" or "Non-binary"; these accounts keep choosing with the deck allowance that renews every 12 hours (for non-binary accounts, from 15.10.2026). Decks used before app version 1.0.63 may also count toward it, including decks that were skipped without a pick on app versions earlier than 1.0.63. We may give some accounts a larger free allowance at our discretion. The products and prices of WIN Premium are the same for everyone; the difference in scope for male accounts is explained in Section 3.8.

Once the free allowance has been used, an active WIN Premium subscription is required to keep choosing. Deck packs bought as one-time purchases remain valid and can be used without a subscription until they are used up. Deck packs only add picks; for male accounts, the access in Section 3.8 requires an active WIN Premium.

Gift decks: Gift decks earned without payment (through achievement badges or the invite programme) are promotional and have no monetary value. If your account is subject to the lifetime free allowance in this section, gift decks can be used only while your WIN Premium subscription is active; on accounts not subject to it, gift decks can also be used without a subscription. While gift decks are usable, they are spent from your balance before the decks you purchased.

Invite programme: Your friend downloads Who is Next, enters your invite code in the app on the Settings > Invite Friends screen, and once their account is verified (photo verification completed) you both receive +5 gift decks. An inviting account is rewarded for at most 20 invites. You cannot use your own code and each account can use only one invite code; WIN may withhold the reward where abuse is suspected. Depending on your account, WIN Premium may be required to use gift decks (see the paragraph above).

A subscription gives continued access to choosing and, for male accounts, the access described in Section 3.8. It does not guarantee that a chosen person will reply, start a conversation or match with you. The chosen person always decides whether to start the conversation.

This rule applies to app version 1.0.63 (build 117) and later and takes effect when that version is released.

3.8 Picked You and messaging (male accounts)

People who picked you appear in your "Picked You" list, and only the picked person can start the chat (see Section 4.8 of the Terms of Use). The following rules apply to accounts whose profile gender is "Male" and that have no active WIN Premium subscription:

  • Picked You: The number of people who picked you and a reduced, blurred version of the first profile photo of up to 3 of them are shown; their name and age are not shown. Seeing who picked you (their name, profile and clear photos) and starting a chat with them are part of WIN Premium.
  • Sending messages: In chats that start after this section takes effect, you can read the messages sent to you; sending messages (of any type) is part of WIN Premium. Chats that started before this section took effect continue as before; sending messages in them does not require WIN Premium because of this section. The WIN support chat is not subject to this rule.
  • When WIN Premium ends: Your chats are not closed and messages stay readable; sending messages again in chats that started after this section took effect (even if they started while you had WIN Premium) requires an active WIN Premium subscription.
  • Deck packs and gift decks only add picks; they do not include seeing who picked you, starting a chat or sending messages.
  • Count: Only picks made in the last 7 days that have not yet turned into a chat and that come from accounts visible in the App are counted; picks from accounts that are deleted, deactivated, pending deletion, hidden (Hide Profile), banned, suspended, under review or with restricted visibility are not counted. Picks leave the list after 7 days.

For accounts whose profile gender is not "Male" (e.g. female and non-binary accounts), seeing the "Picked You" list, starting a chat and sending messages are free; voice messages, however, are part of WIN Premium for all accounts (Section 3.1).

These rules also affect the other person: if the person you picked is subject to this section, they need WIN Premium to start the chat. If the person who picked you is subject to this section and you start the chat, they can read your messages, but replying requires WIN Premium.

WIN Premium does not guarantee that the person who picked you or wrote to you will reply or that a conversation will continue.

Effective date and transition: This section takes effect on the date version 2.0 of the app (build 122; version name 1.0.67 on Google Play) is released in the stores. Picks that are pending (not yet turned into a chat) at that time are also subject to this section. Existing accounts affected by this section are notified once in the app; updating to version 2.0 is made mandatory for older versions of the app.


Section 4: Purchase Process and Establishment of the Contract

The purchase is concluded when you confirm on the store payment screen. This section describes the purchase steps, pre-information, and “payment obligation” warnings.

4.1 Purchase steps

Step 1: Package selection

You select from among the package(s) offered on the WIN Premium screen in the Application.

Step 2: Reviewing the information

You review the price, billing period, renewal type, cancellation procedure, and basic warnings before giving confirmation.

Step 3: Confirmation via the store

When you tap a button such as “Subscribe” or “Buy” (or equivalent wording on your device), the Apple/Google store payment screen opens and you confirm the transaction through the store.

Step 4: Activation

When payment is confirmed, your subscription becomes active for the relevant period and your access to Premium features begins.

4.2 Payment obligation warning and pre-information (Distance Contracts Regulation)

Under the Distance Contracts Regulation, the consumer must be able to access basic information clearly before incurring a payment obligation (in particular Articles 5, 6, and 8).

Accordingly, the following information is aimed to be provided on purchase screens (subject to mandatory minimum elements required by law):

  • basic characteristics of the product/service (Premium scope),
  • total price including all taxes and billing period,
  • renewal and cancellation procedure,
  • information on the right of withdrawal and any exceptions,
  • complaint/objection and support channels.

The contractual framework for minimum information aimed to be shown at the moment of purchase is set out in Section 4 of this text; current texts in the application and store screens are presented consistently with this framework.

4.3 Purchase records and receipt

The receipt/ticket for the purchase transaction can be viewed through the store account where you made the purchase. Store rules and records may govern payment, currency conversion, and similar transaction details.

After purchase, the relevant store may provide a confirmation screen and/or email containing an order/transaction number and purchase details. This order/transaction number may be requested in subscription activation, refund/objection, or technical support processes; it is therefore recommended that you keep it.

Invoice, e-archive and e-receipt process:

  • For purchases made through Apple App Store or Google Play Store, payment collection is performed by the relevant store. Therefore, the official document proving the purchase (receipt/ticket) is the “Purchase Receipt” sent to your registered email address by the store or available in your store account history.
  • Corporate invoice / e-archive: For individual users, store receipts are accepted as valid legal documents. WIN performs aggregate invoicing/reporting for these sales directly to the relevant application stores (B2B). Users do not need to request an e-invoice/e-archive invoice separately from WIN; the store receipt is sufficient for all consumer rights and legal processes.

4.4 Incorrect price/offer and correction

In the event of a clear pricing error or technical fault, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

  • cancelling the transaction,
  • offering the correct price,
  • correcting the error

rights are reserved. Consumer rights are reserved.


Section 5: Pricing, Taxes and Campaigns

Prices are shown on the purchase screen; taxes and campaign/discount display are structured according to legislation. Notification is essential regarding price/package changes for existing subscribers.

5.1 Display of prices and currency

WIN Premium prices may be displayed on the purchase screen offered by the relevant store according to the user’s country/store region. Prices are shown inclusive of all taxes.

Prices may vary across market conditions, campaigns, and regions. You should therefore always follow the current amount payable on in-app purchase screens. The price and conditions you confirm on the store screen at the moment of purchase constitute the contractual price.

5.2 VAT/taxes and store commissions

Taxes, duties, and similar public charges, and store commission/operating rules, may be reflected in prices determined by the store and shown to the user at the time of the transaction. Tax practices may differ by country.

5.3 Display of discounts (Price Tag Regulation, Article 11)

Where discounted sales apply, the price before the discount may need to be shown alongside the discounted price. In determining the pre-discount sale price of goods or services subject to a discounted sale, the principles set under Price Tag Regulation Article 11 (e.g. lowest price applied in the relevant period) are taken into account.

5.4 Price changes and existing subscribers

WIN may change Premium package prices. Price changes are notified in advance according to store policies (email, in-app notification, etc.).

Renewal and new price: When WIN changes package prices, this is notified in advance in line with store policies. If you do not cancel your subscription before the renewal date after such notification, your subscription automatically renews at the current (new) price for the next period. If you do not accept the price change, you must cancel the subscription before the current period ends. If you cancel, your Premium rights continue until the end of the current period.


Section 6: Payment Methods and Collection

Payment transactions are carried out through the relevant store. WIN may not process your bank/card details directly; the store and/or payment infrastructures may be involved.

6.1 Payments via App Store

On iOS devices, purchases may be made through Apple’s in-app purchase infrastructure. Your payment method and transaction details are managed under your Apple account and Apple’s terms.

6.2 Payments via Google Play

On Android devices, purchases may be made through Google’s in-app purchase infrastructure. Your payment method and transaction details are managed under your Google account and Google’s terms.

6.3 Third-party fees (bank/operator/exchange difference)

Your bank, card issuer, mobile operator, or the store may apply charges such as currency conversion, transaction fees, or commission. WIN may have no control over these charges.

6.4 Failed payment, delay, and access effects

If payment fails or cannot be collected:

  • Premium access may pause temporarily or renewal may not occur,
  • the transaction may be cancelled by the store,
  • transactions may be blocked in suspicious cases.

As a user, it is your responsibility to keep payment methods up to date and manage store settings.

Important — Changing payment method is not subscription cancellation: Updating the payment method registered in your store account (e.g. replacing one credit card with another) does not terminate your subscription. The subscription remains active and collection is made from the new/updated payment method at the next renewal. To terminate the subscription you must follow the cancellation steps in Section 8.

6.5 Third-party store terms and technical limitations

For purchases through third-party stores such as Apple App Store / Google Play:

  • purchase, subscription management, and some refund processes are carried out through store infrastructure,
  • if there is a conflict between store terms and this text, store terms may take precedence as regards store infrastructure and the purchase transaction,
  • WIN may have technical limitations over certain transactions made through the store (in particular as regards direct refund/cancellation).

Store support pages:

6.6 Payment dispute / payment cancellation (chargeback) and effects

Processes for cancelling or reversing payment through payment dispute, chargeback, or similar means are subject to store and/or payment institution procedures.

⚠️

To prevent fraud and abuse; when a payment dispute/cancellation is initiated or a suspicious transaction signal arises, temporary restrictions may be applied to your account and/or Premium access may be suspended. Your mandatory consumer rights are reserved.

6.7 Billing errors and corrections

In store-originated billing errors, incorrect charges, or duplicate charge claims, relevant store records take precedence in the first instance. WIN aims to provide support for identifying errors to the extent permitted by law and within technical possibilities.


Section 7: Subscription Period, Renewal and Auto-Renewal

The subscription is valid for the selected billing period. The renewal/extension mechanism depends on store setup; the right to cancel is reserved. Principles of ease of termination and explicit consent under the Subscription Contracts Regulation are observed.

7.1 Start and end of the subscription

The subscription begins when purchase confirmation is given by the store and ends or renews at the end of the relevant billing period (depending on your store settings).

7.2 Auto-renewal and explicit consent

Some subscription types may be offered as auto-renewing subscriptions due to store infrastructure. In that case:

  • the subscription may renew for a new billing period unless cancelled,
  • the renewal fee may be charged at the price at the time of renewal,
  • auto-renewal preference and cancellation method are shown on the purchase screen and in store settings.

For subscriptions including campaigns/promotions, even if the first period started at a discounted price, the price in renewal periods may change under the conditions explained on the store screen at purchase.

⚠️

The subscription relationship may be assessed under the Subscription Contracts Regulation. In this framework, ease of termination/cancellation (in particular Regulation Article 23(3)) and explicit consent principles regarding extension/renewal are important.

7.3 Pre-renewal information

Stores may provide notifications to users regarding subscription renewal and/or price changes. In addition, WIN may provide notification via in-app notification or email to the extent permitted by law.

7.4 Ease of termination and extension principles

WIN aims to provide guidance that makes it easier for users to find cancellation steps in addition to store procedures for subscription cancellation. Methods that unnecessarily burden the consumer for terminating/cancelling the subscription are sought to be avoided (Subscription Contracts Regulation, Article 23(3)).

7.5 Cancellation timing (cancel before renewal)

To prevent auto-renewal from occurring, subscription cancellation may need to be made a certain period before the renewal date. This period and practice may vary according to relevant store rules (in many scenarios cancellation may need to be at least 24 hours before renewal).


Section 8: Cancellation (Termination) and Consequences

Subscription cancellation is performed through the store where the purchase was made. Even if cancelled, use may continue until the end of the current period. Deleting the account does not automatically cancel the subscription.

8.1 Where is cancellation done? (iOS/Android)

Step 1: Go to Subscriptions

Open your iPhone/iPad subscription management screen (Apple ID > Subscriptions).

Step 2: Find WIN Premium subscription

Select WIN Premium from your list of active subscriptions.

Step 3: Use cancel / stop renewal

Stop renewal. Cancellation, as a rule, takes effect at the end of the current period.

8.2 Effective date of cancellation and continued use

When cancellation is completed:

  • your Premium access usually continues until the end of the current billing period,
  • no renewal is made for the next period (according to store rules).

Cancellation of the subscription does not, as a rule, mean your account is deleted; after subscription cancellation the Application may continue to be used with free features outside Premium (for male accounts, see Section 3.8 on Picked You and sending messages).

8.3 Account deletion vs. subscription cancellation

⚠️

Deleting the Application from your device or deleting your WIN account may not automatically cancel a subscription taken through the store. To avoid further charges you must separately cancel the subscription from your store account.

During WIN account deletion, if you have an active subscription the application additionally warns you about subscription cancellation. In current app versions account deletion starts immediately after your confirmation and cannot be undone; for records retained about deleted accounts see Section 9 of the Privacy Policy. Deleting the account does not cancel the subscription; responsibility for cancelling the subscription remains with the user.

8.4 Subscription and access in case of suspension/ban

If your account is restricted/suspended/terminated due to breach of the Terms of Use or Community Guidelines:

  • your access to Premium features may be restricted immediately or may end.
  • No refund: In cases of account breach (ban) or suspension for security reasons, NO FEE REFUND is made for amounts already paid for the current period.
  • even if your account is terminated, your store subscription may continue unless cancelled through the store.

Section 9: Refund, Right of Withdrawal and Defective Service

Refund processes are mostly subject to Apple/Google procedures. Your mandatory consumer rights are reserved. Exceptions to the right of withdrawal may arise for digital services.

9.1 General refund principles

WIN aims to conduct refund processes transparently to the extent permitted by consumer legislation. However, for purchases made through the store, refund decisions and the refund flow may be subject to store rules.

9.2 Store refund procedures (Apple/Google)

For purchases made through Apple App Store or Google Play, refund requests are, in most cases, made through the relevant store and assessed by that store.

For refund/repayment requests it is recommended that you check “purchase history” / “orders” / “subscriptions” sections in your relevant store account.

Apple and Google refund/cancellation help pages:

9.3 Right of withdrawal (Distance Contracts Regulation) and exceptions (digital service)

Under the Distance Contracts Regulation, the consumer generally has a right of withdrawal within 14 days (Article 9). However, for digital services/digital content, in particular:

  • services performed instantly in electronic form or intangible goods delivered instantly (Article 15(1)(ğ)),
  • services whose performance has begun with the consumer’s consent before the withdrawal period expires (Article 15(1)(h))

exceptions to the right of withdrawal may arise.

⚠️

Premium access may begin immediately after purchase. In line with legislation, warnings such as “immediate commencement of service performance” and “withdrawal exception” are aimed to be shown on the purchase screen (see Section 4 of this text and the Pre-Information Form).

9.4 Defective service and optional remedies under 6502

If the service provided is performed defectively, the consumer’s optional remedies under Law No. 6502 may arise (including defective service provisions). These rights are assessed according to the specific case and mandatory consumer rights are reserved.

9.5 Unauthorized transaction, objection and chargeback

For payments made through the store, unauthorized transaction/objection/chargeback processes may be subject to relevant store and/or payment institution policies.

WIN may block the transaction or trigger account security steps in suspicious transaction attempts to prevent fraud and abuse (see Terms of Use).

For possible effects on your account from these processes, see also Section 6.6.

9.6 Cancellation and refund request as separate processes; partial-period refunds

Under some store policies, subscription cancellation and a refund request may be separate processes. That is, cancelling the subscription alone may not mean a refund is automatically granted; you may need to create a separate refund request through the store.

Subject to cases mandatory under law, store practices may apply such as no fee refund/discount for partial use or partially used period of subscriptions, or no refund for renewal periods. The specific case is assessed according to the relevant store procedure and mandatory consumer legislation.


Section 10: Virtual Items and One-Time Purchases

One-time purchases (deck packs) are governed by Section 3.5 and gift decks by Section 3.7; this section sets out the general framework applying to them and to any virtual items that may be added later.

10.1 Legal nature: licence not sale

Virtual items or one-off digital features may, as a rule, constitute a limited and revocable usage licence rather than transfer of ownership.

10.2 Non-transferability, non-convertibility, usage rules

  • Virtual items are non-transferable, non-exchangeable, and cannot be sold.
  • They cannot be converted to cash; “balance” does not represent real-world money value.
  • They may only be used in the Application and under the relevant usage rules.

10.3 Duration/expiry, effect of account closure

If the account is closed/terminated, unused virtual items or one-off entitlements may expire. Mandatory consumer rights are reserved.

10.4 Absence of refund (subject to mandatory cases under law)

For virtual items and one-off digital features, refund/repayment may, subject to cases mandatory under law, as a rule be limited or not possible.


Section 11: Abuse, Fraud and Security

In cases of suspicious transactions and abuse, WIN may apply security measures; this may affect payment/subscription processes.

11.1 Blocking suspicious transactions and verification steps

In case of suspicious transactions, unusual behaviour, or suspicion of fraud:

  • transaction attempts may be blocked,
  • additional verification may be requested,
  • temporary restrictions may be applied for account security.

11.2 Subscription/purchase abuse

If refund requests are abused, fraudulent payment attempts are made, or platform rules are breached, measures relating to your account may be taken to the extent permitted by law.


Section 12: Changes, Updates and Service Termination

WIN may update Premium package scope and pricing in line with legislation. Where the service is terminated, a reasonable approach is aimed at to avoid harm to users.

12.1 Package/feature changes

Premium features may be increased, reduced, or restructured over time. Notification is aimed to be given according to the nature of the changes.

12.2 Approach if the service is terminated

If WIN terminates the Premium service or removes the relevant package; subject to store rules and mandatory consumer legislation, access until the end of your current subscription period or offering appropriate solutions is aimed at.


Section 13: Contact, Support and Disputes

Contact channels for payment/subscription support requests; for consumer disputes, authorities under 6502 are reserved.

13.1 Subscription/payment support channels

You may submit technical support requests for technical issues relating to subscription and payment, incorrect activation, or purchase not being recognised (“restore”). WIN Premium access is managed on a server (account) basis rather than locally on the device; therefore when you log in to your account on new devices your subscription data will activate automatically.

For support requests, technical issues, and subscription management problems you can contact us through our official contact channel legal@whoisnextapp.com.

13.2 Dispute resolution and consumer authorities

Dispute resolution, consumer rights, and competent authorities are assessed together with the general provisions set out in the Terms of Use. If you are a consumer, the Consumer Arbitration Committee and Consumer Court routes under Law No. 6502 are reserved.


Section 14: Entry into Force

  • Distance Contracts Regulation
  • Subscription Contracts Regulation
  • Price Tag Regulation
  • Law No. 6563 on the Regulation of Electronic Commerce (ETK)
