Refund policy
Last updated: 18 June 2026
This policy explains when and how you can request a refund for a bus card recharge made through busontop, the independent top up bus card service for Abu Dhabi hafilat cards.
When a refund applies
A refund applies where a payment was taken but the top-up did not reach the hafilat card balance. If the balance was added correctly, the top-up has been delivered and is normally not refundable, since the value sits on the card ready to use.
How to request a refund
- Email support@busontop.com or use the contact form.
- Include the 10-digit card number, the amount, and the date of the attempt.
- Tell us briefly what happened — for example, the payment was taken but no balance appeared.
Timelines
We aim to review a refund request within 2 business days. Where a refund is due, it is returned to the original payment card. The time it takes to appear on your statement depends on your bank, and is usually within 5 to 10 business days.
Wrong card number
If a top-up was applied to a card number you entered incorrectly, we may not be able to recover it. Please check the number carefully before you confirm a recharge.
