Overview

To-Shin Do Online offers a wide variety of products including virtual membership by subscription, digital services (like live, online testing and private lessons), digital goods (like e-books), event registration and tickets (for both virtual and in-person events), and physical products (like clothing and housewares).

Cancellation, refund, and return policies vary from product to product based on a number of factors including whether the product is virtual or physical, whether the product has limited quantities, who is producing and shipping the product, and the customer’s location.

If you have any questions about policies regarding a specific product, please, first, look for specific information on the product page. We do our best to clarify, for example, if a retail purchase will be fulfilled by a third-party print-on-demand service, and to provide information and estimates regarding processing times, shipping options, and return or refund policies specific to that product or producer.

General Policies by Product Category

Digital Services by Subscription (Memberships)

TSDO Memberships are automatic subscriptions that re-bill monthly or annually depending on the terms of your purchase.

To cancel a membership and all future payments, please login to the site and visit

https://toshindo.online/my-account/subscriptions/

or navigate to Settings >> Orders & Payments >> Subscriptions.

No refunds are available after a payment has been completed.

Digital Services One-time Payment (Online Testing)

Online Group Kyu Rank Testing (on Zoom) is available for TSDO Members to purchase when they are ready for their next belt. Our testing product includes an initial test and two repeat tests (only if needed and at the instructor’s discretion) and an invitation to our semi-annual TSDO Graduation ceremony.

If you are unable to make your scheduled group test, please let us know as soon as possible. If you let us know sooner than 48 hours before your testing appointment you will be able to reschedule without it counting towards your total potential allotment of 3 testing appointments. If you cancel within 48 hours of your appointment or fail to show up for your appointment, it will count as one of your 3 potential testing appointments.

It is rare for an instructor to require a student to test more than twice, but it is possible that due to either failure to cancel appointments, no-shows, or significant disregard for the required knowledge, skills, or procedures that a student would need to purchase additional testing for the same rank.

A student who has been asked to re-test at a future date by an instructor will be given a minimum time requirement before they can register for another testing appointment.

No refunds are available for purchase of Digital Services such as Online Testing.
