Good to understand

How refunds really work

Whether you get money back comes down to one thing: has your booking been confirmed with the airline and hotel yet?

💳  You pay for your trip
Same day • before we confirm
You ask us to cancel within minutes, before we ticket or confirm anything with any supplier at all.
We reverse the payment. You get your money back — we deduct just the 2–3% gateway fee (depending on card type), which the processor keeps.
After confirmation
Your booking is confirmed and money is paid out to the airline and hotel, often immediately.
Any refund then follows the individual supplier's own rules plus any cancellation charges.
If the flights and hotels are non-refundable, then no refund is possible.

Once confirmed, we can only pass back what the suppliers actually return to us. See our full Cancellation and Refund Policy for the details.
