Refund & Cancellation Policy
Last updated: April 27, 2026
Platform Fees (1% on rent, 8% on services)
Platform fees charged by RoomFinderIndia on successful transactions are non-refundableonce the transaction is complete, except in cases of clear platform error or duplicate charge. Contact support@roomfinderindia.com within 7 days for such cases.
Rent Payments
Rent paid through the Platform is forwarded to the landlord after verification (typically same day). Once forwarded, refunds must be negotiated directly with the landlord; we cannot reverse the payment.
Security Deposit (Escrow)
Deposits placed in our escrow are held until one of the following:
- The tenant requests a refund and the landlord approves — full refund to tenant.
- The landlord claims deductions and the tenant accepts — split as agreed.
- A dispute is raised — our moderation team reviews and issues a decision, usually within 7 business days.
Disputed funds are held in escrow during review; no party can access them until resolution.
Service Bookings
Customers may cancel a service booking at any time before the provider marks it as "in progress". Cancellation policy:
- Before provider accepts: no charge.
- After acceptance, before start: free if cancelled at least 24 hours before scheduled time; otherwise the provider may charge up to 25% of the quoted price.
- After start (in progress): work completed must be paid for; dispute via our support.
Subscription / Premium Features
If we introduce paid subscriptions, a 7-day money-back guarantee applies to first-time purchases. Renewals are not refundable.
