A Customer may use a Prepaid Card to purchase goods and services offered by a Store. Use may, however, be restricted under the Store's policies. If the Company becomes aware that a Store has restricted or refused the use of a Prepaid Card, the Company shall post notice on its website (https://cozyhouse.kr) without delay.
The Company or a Store may refuse to reissue or accept a Prepaid Card if its Card Number was exposed and used due to the Customer's negligence, or if the Prepaid Card was issued through fraudulent means.

Before the validity period expires, if at least 60% of the balance at the time of the most recent Top-Up has been used, the remaining balance may be refunded in cash through the Customer Service Center.
