Order Cancellation Policy

Sometimes orders need to be cancelled. This policy explains when and how you (as a host/seller) can cancel an order, what happens after, and how refunds work.

1. Cancelling an Order

You may cancel an order under certain conditions. To cancel:

  • Go to your Orders section in your Host Co dashboard.

  • Find the specific order, select a cancellation option (or “Refund Order”) under the Orders page.

  • Confirm the cancellation.

Make sure you do this promptly once you know you can’t fulfill the order as promised.

2. Buyer-Requested Cancellations

  • If a buyer requests cancellation, your cancellation policy on each offering will take precedence

3. After Cancellation

  • If an order is cancelled, a full refund goes to the buyer automatically if payment had already been made.

4. Refund Issues

  • If there’s trouble issuing a refund (e.g. payment method issue), you’ll be notified. You may need to attempt the refund again.

  • If the buyer doesn’t receive the refund and the issue isn’t resolved, the buyer may escalate the matter (e.g. open a dispute) and The Host Co may intervene.

5. Best Practices & Notes

  • Be clear in your store’s terms about cancellations: when they’re allowed, what counts, and any time limits.

  • Respond quickly to buyer requests and cancellation notifications.

  • Keep all communication polite and transparent to maintain trust.
