Use this topic page when pricing transparency matters before you go deeper into the case.

Pension Refund follows a no-win-no-fee model. You only pay when the refund is successfully paid out. The standard success fee is 9.9%, with a minimum of EUR 899 and a maximum of EUR 2,899. Right now, Fundsback offers a limited discount of 5% on these fees, bringing the effective rate to 9.405% (minimum EUR 854.05, maximum EUR 2,754.05). The cost of an external lawyer is included. There are no upfront payments or hidden charges.

Pension Assist should position pricing with the same transparency standard as the refund path. The right fee logic can still depend on service scope and case complexity, so the current terms should be clarified before you move deeper into the process.

You may be able to try the refund process yourself, but many people use support to reduce document mistakes, German-language friction and authority back-and-forth from abroad. The value is usually a clearer process, external legal support where needed and less bureaucracy, not a promise that every case becomes easy.
