Cancellations
When a session cannot go ahead, record it clearly.
Cancelling in Golfa keeps your diary accurate and triggers the right refund behaviour for card payments.
Cancel a booking
- Open Bookings and tap the lesson.
- In the edit booking sheet, choose Cancel (or equivalent cancel action).
- Confirm. The booking moves to cancelled status and frees the slot on your calendar.
Refunds
- Card payments — Refunds follow your stated policy and Stripe rules; golfers may receive automatic refunds when you cancel according to platform rules.
- Pay at venue — No lesson charge was taken online; only the booking fee may apply. Clarify with the golfer directly.
No-shows
- If the golfer does not arrive, cancel or mark the booking according to your policy (use cancel if the slot should not count as taught).
- Note the outcome in Messages or your own records if you chase fees offline.
Communicate policy upfront
- Add cancellation terms to lesson descriptions on your profile or in messages at booking time.
- Apply the same rules for direct and marketplace golfers to avoid disputes.
Tips
- Cancel as soon as you know weather or illness will stop play so the golfer can rebook elsewhere.
- Check Bookings list filters or past view to review cancelled lessons for your records.
