🛡️ BHC Promise

Your deposit reserves your slot. It’s fully refundable until your rancher accepts it (usually within 24–48 hours). Once they commit your processing slot, it becomes non-refundable. Cold-chain guarantee and BHC mediation apply either way.

  • •Refundable window: change your mind before your rancher accepts? Full refund.
  • •Non-refundable once accepted: after they commit your slot, they’ve set aside cuts of meat and locked in processing. You’ll get a “slot locked” email the moment that happens.
  • •Cold-chain guarantee: if your beef arrives thawed or short, BHC makes you whole — even after acceptance.
  • •We mediate: any dispute, reply to your match thread or email hello@buyhalfcow.com and we step in.
