Automated Epic Games Refund Window Countdown
Every morning, WebRun opens Epic Games, reads your recent orders with their order date, amount, and stated refund eligibility, checks whether each title has been played from your library, drafts you a Gmail nudge on anything still returnable, and posts the countdown to Slack.
How do I know if a game purchase is still inside its refund window?
WebRun runs a refund window countdown every morning. It opens Epic Games, reads your recent orders with their dates, amounts, and stated refund eligibility, checks whether each title was ever launched, posts the countdown to Slack, and drafts you a Gmail nudge before an order stops being returnable.
- A purchase never quietly passes its refund window
- Unplayed titles are flagged while the money is still recoverable
- Nothing is refunded or bought without you clicking it yourself

How is each run configured?

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it request a refund for me?
No. WebRun reads the order history and reports what is still eligible. Requesting a refund stays your click, so nothing is returned or cancelled without you deciding to do it.
How does it know what is still returnable?
It reads the refund eligibility Epic Games shows on each order in your account, along with the order date. WebRun copies what the store states and never guesses at a policy.
Does it buy or change anything on my account?
No. It never purchases, redeems, changes a payment method, or contacts support. The only things it produces are an internal Slack post and an unsent Gmail draft addressed to you.
