Refund & Cancellation Policy
Effective September 24, 2026
This page explains when a charge made through FixItFast can be refunded and how to request it.
1. What you're charged, and when
When you submit a service request, you're charged the displayed starting estimate — the callout plus the first hour — before the request is sent. That amount, and any demand-based multiplier, is shown on screen before you confirm payment. Anything beyond that (parts, extra time, additional work) is quoted and agreed with the provider on site and is not collected through FixItFast at booking.
2. [Refund eligibility — confirm and complete before publishing]
FixItFast's actual refund window and conditions need to be filled in here by the business (for example: full refund if no provider accepts within a stated time; full refund if you cancel before a provider is dispatched; partial/no refund once a provider is en route or has started work; how disputed or unsatisfactory work is handled). Until this section is completed with real, accurate terms, do not represent to customers that refunds are available on any specific timeline.
3. No provider available
If no provider accepts your request within the matching window and it's marked unmatched, the starting-estimate charge is refunded to your original payment method automatically.
4. Cancelling a request
You can cancel a request from your dashboard. Cancelling before a provider accepts is refunded in full. Cancelling after a provider has accepted, or once they're on site, may not be fully refundable, since the provider has already committed time — the specific cutoffs need to be confirmed (see section 2).
5. How refunds are issued
Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method through Stripe. Processing typically takes a few business days after approval, depending on your bank or card issuer.
6. Disputing a charge
If something doesn’t look right on a charge, contact us first at [email protected] before opening a chargeback with your bank — we can usually resolve it faster directly.
