## What happens if an order goes wrong?

**At split.tg, a transaction cannot be refunded once it is on chain, according to its own page; at Aurelstar, a failed order returns to the balance in full.** If an order fails, its full amount goes back to your balance. A delivered order is final: it cannot be returned, cancelled or exchanged. An order sent to the username you typed cannot be taken back, so check it before you pay.

Neither rule covers what Telegram itself may do. Telegram’s Stars terms forbid selling or redistributing Stars, and they let Telegram debit Stars with no refund. Whether a paid gift to a username counts as selling or redistributing Stars is not settled: Telegram has published nothing on it, and Aurelstar claims neither answer. Aurelstar is not an authorized Telegram reseller and is not affiliated with Telegram.
