Pepr Dates — Terms of Use
Welcome to Pepr Dates. By accessing or using the Pepr Dates website, mobile application, or any other platform (collectively, the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (“Terms”). These Terms apply to all users, regardless of registration or purchase status. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Service.
Please read these Terms carefully. They include important provisions regarding your rights and obligations, limitations on our liability, and an agreement to resolve disputes through individual arbitration rather than class action litigation.
1. Overview of Services
Pepr Dates offers users the ability to browse profiles, purchase credits to unlock conversations, and boost their profile visibility. All purchases on Pepr Dates are one-time transactions—there are no subscriptions or automatic renewals. Credits and profile boosts are subject to these Terms and do not expire, provided the account remains in good standing under these Terms.
You are responsible for ensuring that all information provided during any purchase is accurate and up to date.
2. Eligibility
To use Pepr Dates, you must:
- Be at least 18 years of age;
- Not have been previously suspended or permanently banned from Pepr Dates for violating these Terms or our Community Guidelines; and
- Agree to comply with these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Community Guidelines.
By creating an account, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements. We reserve the right to verify eligibility at any time and to suspend or terminate accounts that fail to meet these requirements.
3. User Accounts
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@peprdates.com if you suspect any unauthorized use. Pepr Dates is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your account credentials.
Each user may maintain only one active account. Creating multiple accounts, or creating a new account after being banned, is prohibited and may result in permanent removal from the platform.
4. One-Time Purchases
Pepr Dates allows users to purchase credits and profile boosts. All purchases are one-time and do not automatically renew or create any subscription obligation.
- Credits: Can be used to unlock conversations or access certain features within the app.
- Profile Boosts: Increase the visibility of your profile for a specified duration. Once activated, a boost takes effect immediately and cannot be reversed or transferred.
Credits and boosts are tied to your account and are non-transferable.
5. Payment and Billing
All payments on Pepr Dates are non-recurring. You are responsible for ensuring your payment information is accurate at the time of purchase. Pepr Dates may offer multiple payment methods, including credit card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Prices are displayed at checkout and may vary based on location, promotional offers, or other factors.
Pepr Dates reserves the right to change pricing at any time. Price changes do not affect purchases already completed.
6. Refund Policy
All purchases on Pepr Dates are final and non-refundable, except as required by applicable law or as expressly stated in these Terms. Refunds are not available for partially used or unused credits or boosts.
California Residents: If you are a California resident, you may cancel a purchase within three (3) business days of the transaction date for a full refund by contacting us at support@peprdates.com or by sending a written request to:

Your request must include your full name, the email address associated with your account, and details of the purchase for which you are requesting a refund.
7. Account Suspension and Termination
Pepr Dates reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account, at our sole discretion, if we determine a user has violated these Terms, our Community Guidelines, or engaged in conduct harmful to other users or the platform.
- Termination for violations: If your account is terminated for a violation of these Terms, you are not entitled to any refund of credits or boosts.
- Voluntary deletion: You may delete your account at any time through the app. Voluntary deletion does not entitle you to a refund of previously purchased credits or boosts.
