How to get a NotchStar refund
You can get a NotchStar refund by emailing hello@notchstar.com within 7 days of buying. NotchStar costs $4 once, and payments are handled by Dodo Payments, the merchant of record. Prices as of 4 November 2026.
Steps
- Write to hello@notchstar.com within 7 days of the purchase.
- Say which email address you bought with, so the order can be found.
- Wait for the reply to your email.
The 7 day window matches the length of the free trial. Use the trial first, because every tool works during it and the app asks for no card.
What happens to the key
A refunded key stops being valid. NotchStar learns this at its next weekly check, and then shows “This license is no longer active” with a note that it may have been refunded. If you see that message and did not ask for a refund, write to the same address.
Being offline never revokes a license. Only an explicit answer from the license server does. See offline use and the weekly check.
After a refund
Your notes and settings stay on your Mac. The app returns to the buy prompt described in what happens when the trial ends. You can free a Mac slot yourself before asking, with Deactivate this Mac.
To see what you would be keeping, look at the clipboard tool.
