The products on VRiddle Store are owned by the authors, not by us. We provide a platform; we do not take ownership of the products.
Becoming an author is free:
Becoming an author and showcasing your products on the VRiddle Store is free but there is a review process before your products are published on store.
Process to become an author:
There are easy steps you follow to sign up as an author, which are outlined on VRiddle Sell Your Work portal. Here you’ll find information that will help you get started. You’ll also find information about payment, submission requirements and other important information about being an author in our Author Terms.
Pre-requisites to become an author:
Everything you sell as an author on VRiddle store must be your own original content.
If you use any assets that are owned by someone else, you must have a license that grants you permission to use and resell them.
Process Involved:
1. Upload your products, using VRiddle Sell Your Work portal.
Step 1: Sign up as an author by clicking on ‘SIGN UP AS AN AUTHOR /EDITOR’.

2. Once you sign up as an author and upload your content, your content will be reviewed and our review team will call you to let you know if the content has been approved.
You will be required to sign a T&C to get started with VRiddle as an author.

VRiddle Refund Rules:
These Refund Rules provide a transparent approach to refunds, giving both you and your buyers a great platform experience and a "fair go".
As the creator and owner of your products, you as an author are responsible to people who buy them. These rules are based on consumer laws that we think are the best “baseline” to apply to transactions that happen on VRiddle Store. Please be aware that in addition to these rules, each country has its own laws surrounding refunds and we think it would be a good idea for you to familiarise yourself with any other applicable laws where you are located and where a buyer is located.
Here are the situations in which we expect you to give a refund on your item and related services if requested by the buyer.
Product is "not as described"
A product is "not as described" if it is materially different from the item description or preview so be sure to "tell it like it is" when it comes to the features and functionality of your products. If it turns out the product is "not as described" you are obligated to refund buyers of that product.
Product doesn't work the way it should
If a product doesn't work the way it should and can't easily be fixed you are obligated to refund buyers of the product. This includes situations where your product has a problem that would have stopped a buyer from buying it if they'd known about the problem in the first place. If the product can be fixed, then you should do so promptly by updating your product otherwise you are obligated to refund buyers of that product.
Product has a security vulnerability
If a product contains a security vulnerability and can't easily be fixed you are obligated to refund buyers of the product. If the product can be fixed, then you should do so promptly by updating your product. If your product contains a security vulnerability that is not patched in an appropriate time frame then you are obligated to refund buyers of that product.
When a refund does not need to be given
If your product is materially similar to the description and preview and works the way it should, there is generally no obligation to provide a refund in situations like the following:
- they don't want it after the product has been delivered.
- the product did not meet the their expectations;
- they simply changed their mind;
- they bought a product by mistake;
Resolving disputes
If you and your buyer can't come to an agreement about a refund, VRiddle will investigate the matter and try to resolve the issue. We will make a decision based on all available information and if we decide to issue a refund we will process the refund on your behalf (the cost of which may be shared with you).
Even though you must still follow these rules as a baseline standard, if a buyer requests a refund, you as the creator and owner of the product can decide to grant a refund independent of these rules.
