Last updated: September 2026

Mazaal For Auctions Organizing CO. L.L.C

This Refund, Return and Cancellation Policy explains when amounts paid on the Mazal Platform may be refunded, returned to your Wallet, or forfeited. It applies to Marketplace purchases, Auction deposits, valuation fees, promotional packages and other paid services operated by Mazaal For Auctions Organizing CO. L.L.C ("Mazal"). This Policy should be read with our Terms & Conditions.

Terms & Conditions

.1Scope

Mazal deals primarily in digital marketplace and auction services for UAE vehicle number plates. Physical retail returns of goods do not apply in the same way as a conventional e-commerce store.

  • Plate ownership transfers are completed through Mazal custody and competent authority processes.
  • Eligible refunds are typically returned to the Mazal Wallet or the original payment method where operationally possible.
  • Service-specific rules shown at checkout or in Auction terms prevail for that transaction.
  • Fraud, abuse or breach of Terms may result in refusal of a refund.

.2Marketplace purchases

Marketplace plate purchases are settled through escrow after the seller places the plate into Mazal custody.

  • Once ownership transfer to the buyer is completed, the purchase is final and the plate cannot be "returned" like a consumer product.
  • If a transaction is cancelled before transfer completion under the applicable Platform rules, eligible buyer payments are refunded less any stated penalties.
  • If a buyer fails to complete payment after commitment, penalties in the Terms (including any AED 5,000 charge where applicable) may apply.
  • Reveal fees and similar unlock fees are non-refundable once the plate code or protected content has been revealed.

.3Auction deposits

Auction participation requires a refundable security deposit that unlocks bidding capacity.

  • Unsuccessful bidder deposits remain available in the bidder's Mazal Wallet subject to Auction rules.
  • A winning bidder's deposit is returned to the Wallet after successful completion of the purchase, subject to settlement rules.
  • If a winning bidder fails to complete the purchase, AED 5,000 (or the amount stated in the Auction terms) may be forfeited and account restrictions may apply.
  • Mazal may cancel or re-run an Auction for integrity, technical or legal reasons; eligible deposits are handled under the Auction rules then in force.

.4Fees and paid services

Certain Platform fees are charged for services that are delivered immediately or digitally.

  • Promotional listing packages are non-refundable once activated.
  • Valuation certificate fees are generally non-refundable after the valuation process has started or a certificate has been issued.
  • Portfolio subscription fees follow the billing terms shown at purchase; unused time is not automatically refunded unless Mazal states otherwise.
  • Where Mazal cancels a paid service before delivery due to its own operational failure, a refund or credit will be offered.

.5Cancellations

Cancellation rights depend on the journey and the stage of the transaction.

  • Sellers may not cancel an Auction after the plate has entered the Auction process except where Mazal expressly permits it.
  • Buyers may cancel only where the Platform rules for that journey allow it and any stated penalties are accepted.
  • Mazal may cancel transactions required by law, KYC failure, suspected fraud or plate custody issues.

.6How to request a refund

Contact Mazal Support with your account details, transaction reference and reason for the request.

  • Email: labaih@mazaldubai.ae
  • Phone: +971 4 299 9055
  • Or use the Contact Us form on the website.
  • Approved refunds are processed within a reasonable period after verification, typically within 7–14 business days depending on the payment channel.
