Step-by-step instructions on getting a Fortnite refund
In order to get a Fortnite refund, the purchase has to be within the first 30 days. If that’s the case with you, please proceed with these instructions.
- Boot up the game and then click the profile picture on the top right. This will bring up the sidebar Social menu.
- Next, click the gear symbol on the bottom left of the sidebar.
- Select “Support and Refunds.”
- Now go to “Return or Cancel Purchase.”
- You’ll see a selection of your past purchases. You can then “Use Return Ticket” to begin the process. Keep in mind you can only do this process three times over 365 days.
- Additionally, there may be a “Cancel Purchase” tab. Hold it down to cancel the VBucks payment.
- Once you use a Return Ticket, it will ask if you want to return the items. Agree to it and then the VBucks will be back on your account.
Now you know how to get a refund from your Fortnite purchases, including Jack Skellington if you’re not a Nightmare Before Christmas fan. Humbug to you, I say!
