Cancelling an item: what you get back

How cancelling one item works after you've paid, CIRI's refund schedule, when the seller cancels, and when refunds are paid.

A creative team around a table

You cancel one item at a time. Nothing else in the project changes.

If you cancel

Open the item and press Cancel item. The screen shows exactly what you get back before you confirm. CIRI's standard schedule applies to bookings today:

The 12% service fee and any add-ons are kept, unless you bought Security Protection and you're inside its grace, when the whole item price and its share of the fee come back. An item with no confirmed start is treated as outside every window.

Confirming records the cancellation; CIRI then reviews and executes the refund to your card.

If the seller cancels

You get back everything you paid for that item, including its share of the 12% fee, and the refund runs straight away. The seller is paid nothing for it. Add-ons are not refunded.

Before you've paid

Nothing has been taken, so there's nothing to refund.
