Cancelling a booking
Back to top
To cancel a booking, the Customer simply needs to click on the Cancel Booking link beneath the status of their reservation.
This link only appears if your settings allow it. These settings can include date limitations as well as restrictions on booking status.
Once the link is clicked on, the Customer receives a pop-up alert asking them to confirm the booking cancellation.
When the cancellation is complete, the booking status is updated to reflect this.
 |
A refund of any monies paid is not automatically triggered for the Customer. They still need to contact you so the refund can be issued through your system backend. |
