Refund Policy

Last Updated: May 20, 2026

1. Overview

This Refund Policy applies to all orders placed directly through our website at greenlaternpizza-food.rest, by phone, or in person at Green Lantern Pizza. By placing an order with us, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy. We comply with applicable United States consumer protection laws, including guidelines established by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) under the FTC Act.

We understand that issues can occasionally arise with food orders — whether it's an incorrect item, a quality concern, or an unexpected cancellation. Our goal is to resolve every issue fairly and promptly.

2. Eligibility Conditions for Refunds

A refund or replacement may be issued under the following circumstances:

• Incorrect Order: You received an item that differs from what you ordered (wrong toppings, wrong size, wrong item entirely).
• Missing Items: One or more items from your order were not delivered or included.
• Food Quality Issues: The food arrived in an unsatisfactory condition, such as being undercooked, overcooked, spoiled, or containing foreign objects.
• Significant Delivery Delay: Your delivery order arrived significantly later than the estimated time provided at the time of ordering, causing the food to be cold or otherwise inedible.
• Allergic or Dietary Errors: You specified a dietary restriction or food allergy at the time of ordering and the food was prepared incorrectly as a result, posing a health concern.
• Duplicate Charges: You were charged more than once for the same order due to a technical or billing error.
• Order Not Received: Your delivery order was confirmed but never arrived.

All refund requests are subject to review by our team. Green Lantern Pizza reserves the right to request supporting documentation (such as photos of the item) before approving a refund.

3. Timeframes for Refund Requests

To be eligible for a refund, you must contact us within the timeframes listed below:

Requests submitted outside of these timeframes may not be eligible for a refund. We encourage customers to inspect their orders promptly upon receipt.

4. Non-Refundable Items and Situations

The following are generally not eligible for a refund:

• Orders where the customer simply changed their mind after the food was prepared or delivered.
• Items that have been partially or fully consumed and the complaint is unrelated to a genuine quality or accuracy issue.
• Customized orders where the preparation matched the instructions provided at the time of ordering.
• Delivery fees charged by third-party delivery platforms (these are handled under the respective platform's policies).
• Promotional or complimentary items provided free of charge.
• Delays caused by circumstances beyond our control, such as severe weather, traffic accidents, or natural disasters.
• Orders placed through third-party apps (e.g., DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub) — these must be resolved directly with the respective platform.

5. How to Request a Refund — Step-by-Step

Follow the steps below to submit a refund request with Green Lantern Pizza:

1. Contact Us Promptly: Reach out to our customer support team as soon as you identify an issue with your order. You can contact us via:
   • Email: [email protected]
   • Website: greenlaternpizza-food.rest
2. Provide Your Order Details: Include the following information in your request:
   • Your full name
   • Order number or confirmation number
   • Date and time of the order
   • Description of the issue
   • Preferred resolution (refund, replacement, or store credit)
3. Submit Supporting Documentation: If applicable, attach photos or videos showing the issue (e.g., incorrect item, quality problem, damaged packaging).
4. Await Review: Our team will review your request and respond within 1–3 business days. We may contact you for additional information.
5. Receive Resolution: Once your request is approved, we will process your refund, issue a replacement, or provide store credit, depending on the nature of the issue and your preferred resolution.

6. Refund Processing Times by Payment Method

Once a refund is approved, the time required to receive your funds depends on your original payment method:

Please note that processing times may vary depending on your financial institution. Green Lantern Pizza is not responsible for delays caused by your bank or payment provider once the refund has been initiated on our end.

7. Partial Refunds

In some cases, a partial refund may be issued rather than a full refund. Partial refunds may apply when:

• Only one or a few items in a larger order were incorrect or unsatisfactory.
• The food quality issue affected only part of the order.
• A portion of the order was consumed before the issue was reported, and the complaint applies only to a specific item.
• A promotional discount was applied to the original order, and the refund reflects the discounted price paid.
• A delivery fee portion is not refundable but the food item cost is.

The amount of a partial refund will be determined at the sole discretion of Green Lantern Pizza based on a fair assessment of the situation.

8. Exchange Policy

In lieu of a monetary refund, Green Lantern Pizza may offer an exchange or replacement for eligible orders. An exchange may be offered in the following situations:

• An incorrect item was delivered and the correct item can be prepared and sent promptly.
• A food quality issue is identified and a fresh replacement can reasonably be provided.
• The customer prefers a replacement over a refund.

To request an exchange, please contact us using the same process described in Section 5. Exchanges are subject to availability and operating hours. Replacement items will be prepared and delivered or made available for pickup at no additional charge to the customer.

Please note: We cannot guarantee exchanges for orders placed during peak hours if the wait time would be unreasonably long. In such cases, a refund or store credit will be offered instead.

9. Cancellation Policy

We begin preparing your order as soon as it is confirmed. Because of the perishable nature of fresh food, our cancellation window is limited.

9.1 Online and Phone Orders

• Cancellations must be requested within 5 minutes of placing the order to be eligible for a full refund.
• Once food preparation has begun, cancellations are generally not accepted, and no refund will be issued.
• If an order has been dispatched for delivery, cancellation is no longer possible.

9.2 Catering or Large Group Orders

• Cancellations for catering or large group orders must be made at least 24 hours in advance of the scheduled pickup or delivery time to receive a full refund.
• Cancellations made between 12–24 hours in advance may be subject to a cancellation fee of up to 25% of the total order value.
• Cancellations made less than 12 hours in advance are not eligible for a refund, as ingredients and labor have already been committed.

9.3 How to Cancel

To cancel an order, contact us immediately at [email protected] or through our website at greenlaternpizza-food.rest. Please have your order number ready.

10. Store Credit

In some cases, Green Lantern Pizza may offer store credit as an alternative to a cash or card refund. Store credit:

• Is valid for use on future orders placed directly through our website or by phone.
• Does not expire for a period of 12 months from the date of issuance.
• Cannot be exchanged for cash.
• Cannot be transferred to another customer account.
• May be offered as a goodwill gesture even in cases where a refund is not strictly required.

11. Dispute Resolution Process

If you are not satisfied with the resolution provided by our customer support team, you may escalate your concern through the following process:

Step 1: Internal Escalation

Request that your case be reviewed by a manager or senior team member. Contact us at [email protected] with the subject line "Refund Dispute – Escalation Request" and include your original case reference number. We will respond within 3 business days.

Step 2: Written Complaint

If the escalation does not resolve your concern, you may submit a formal written complaint to our business address on record. We will acknowledge receipt within 5 business days and provide a final written determination within 15 business days.

Step 3: External Dispute Resolution

If your dispute remains unresolved, you may seek assistance through the following external resources:

• Federal Trade Commission (FTC): File a complaint at ftc.gov under the FTC Act, which governs fair and honest business practices in the United States.
• Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB): For billing disputes related to credit card charges, you may file a complaint at consumerfinance.gov.
• Better Business Bureau (BBB): You may file a complaint at bbb.org.
• Your State Attorney General: Most U.S. states have consumer protection divisions that handle food service and billing complaints.
• Credit Card Chargeback: If you believe you have been incorrectly charged, you have the right to dispute the charge with your credit card issuer under the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA).

12. Food Safety and Health Concerns

If you believe that food received from Green Lantern Pizza has caused a food safety concern or illness, please:

1. Seek appropriate medical attention immediately if needed.
2. Preserve any remaining food in a sealed container for potential inspection.
3. Contact us immediately at [email protected] to report the issue.
4. You may also contact your local health department to report food safety concerns.

We take all food safety reports extremely seriously and will conduct a thorough internal investigation upon notification.

13. Third-Party Delivery Platforms

If your order was placed through a third-party delivery platform such as DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, or any other similar service, please note the following:

• Refund and dispute policies are governed by the respective platform's terms of service.
• Green Lantern Pizza does not have direct control over refunds processed through third-party platforms.
• You should contact the platform's customer support directly for order issues related to delivery, missing items, or billing.
• We are happy to work cooperatively with third-party platforms to resolve food quality or accuracy issues on our end.
