How Does Academy Issue Refunds?

All refunds we issue for returned merchandise must match the original form of payment. Customers will receive refunds in the following forms:

• Cash refunds for cash and check purchases
• Credit to the appropriate card for debit and credit card purchases
• Credit to the appropriate account for Apple Pay, PayPal, and other purchases using authorized payment systems
• Merchandise credit for gift card or any return without a receipt or packing slip
• Please contact Customer Care via phone or chat if you'd like to check the balance of your merchandise gift card.

Customers who make a return without a receipt will receive a merchandise credit equal to the item's lowest price sold within the past 90 days or an even exchange.

Academy Sports + Outdoors is committed to keeping our prices low every day by preventing fraud and abuse in the return process. We carefully monitor returns for fraud and abuse. We reserve the right to limit returns or exchanges regardless of your presentation of a valid receipt or packing slip.
