Cancellation policies are chosen by hosts and freelancers when creating listings. Guests see these before booking, and they form the binding terms of cancellations and refunds.
Standard Policies
- Flexible:Â Full refund within 24 hours of booking, partial refunds up to X days prior.
- Moderate:Â Partial refund with more limited time windows.
- Strict:Â Minimal refunds; no refunds after a certain deadline.
- Custom:Â Requires Unaffiliate approval.
What Could Affect Cancellations
- A provider who cancels on a guest triggers an automatic full refund.
- If the provider cancels repeatedly, their listing status may be suspended.
- Misrepresenting policies in your description may cause disputes.
Pro Tip
Always align your cancellation policy with your risk tolerance: stricter policies mean fewer cancellations, but they may also reduce bookings.
Troubleshooting Suggestions
- If your policy doesn’t display, clear browser cache and refresh.
- If a cancellation policy seems inaccurate, contact Support for correction.
