SpaceCloud Refund Policy Guide
Hosts on SpaceCloud can set their own refund policy, which is shown to guests before they book. If a confirmed booking is canceled, the SpaceCloud Basic Refund Rules apply first, followed by the host's policy.
1. Host Hire Fee Refund Policies
Hosts can choose from one of three refund policies. However, the SpaceCloud Refund Rules will always take priority over the host’s chosen policy.
1) Flexible 7-day
- No refund for cancellation made on the day of the event.
- 50% refund for cancellation made between 1 and 6 days before the event.
- Full refund for cancellation made at least 7 days before the event.
2) Standard 30-day
- No refund for cancellation made less than 7 days before the event.
- 50% refund for cancellation made between 7 and 29 days before the event.

2. SpaceCloud Refund Rules
These rules always take priority over the host's refund policy.
1) Guest Service Fee Refund Policy
Full Refund: If the hire fee is fully refunded, the guest service fee will also be fully refunded.
Partial or No Refund: If the hire fee is partially refunded, the guest service fee is non-refundable.
2) Cancellation due to the Host
If a host cancels a booking, the guest will receive a full refund. The host must cancel the booking through the platform, so the guest should either wait for the cancellation or contact the host to request it.
3) Free Cancellation Immediately After Payment
If a guest cancels a booking shortly after payment, the SpaceCloud policy takes priority over the host's refund policy. The specific rule depends on how soon the booking is scheduled to begin.
When the event is scheduled to start more than 3 hours after payment, guests will receive a full refund if they cancel within 2 hours of making the payment.
Example: If a guest pays at 3:00 PM for an event at 7:00 PM, the guest will get a full refund if they cancel by 5:00 PM.
When the event starts within 3 hours of payment, a guest will receive a full refund if they cancel within 15 minutes of making the payment.
Example: If a guest pays at 5:00 PM for an event at 7:00 PM, they will get a full refund if they cancel by 5:15 PM.
3. Operational Tips for Hosts
You can change your refund policy at any time from your host page. However, these changes will only apply to bookings made after the update. To prevent disputes, it is essential to clearly state your cancellation and refund conditions.
You can view refund dates and amounts on the Booking Management page.
