FAQ

Questions about this tool

What are digital products?

Our products are downloadable files — Excel workbooks and Google Sheets templates — rather than physical items. Nothing is posted to you. After purchase you receive access to the files online.

Do you sell Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets or any software licence?

No. We only sell template files — spreadsheets you open in software you already have. We don’t sell, resell or include Microsoft Excel, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace or any other software, licence, product key or subscription. To use our files you need your own copy of Excel or a free Google account.

How will I receive my purchase?

We send your files by email within 24 hours of your payment being confirmed — usually much sooner. You’ll receive the Excel file and, where included, a Google Sheets link that creates your own private copy. Check your spam folder if you don’t see it, or contact us.

What software do I need?

You need Microsoft Excel (desktop) or a free Google account to use Google Sheets. Each product page lists the exact compatibility for that tool. We don’t sell software licences — you use your own copy of Excel or Google Sheets.

Can I customise the tools?

Yes. You can rename categories, add rows, change labels and adjust colours. Core calculation areas are clearly marked so you can see what to edit and what to leave alone. Changes to formulas are at your own discretion.

Can I share the files with other people?

You can share the files with people inside your own business who work with you. You may not resell, redistribute, publish or give away the files or modified versions of them. See our Terms & Conditions for the full licence.

Refund policy

If your file is faulty, won’t open, or isn’t as described, contact us within 14 days of purchase. We’ll fix or replace it, or refund you if we can’t. Because digital files can be kept once downloaded, change-of-mind refunds aren’t normally available once the files have been sent to you. Your statutory rights are not affected.
