# Can I Get a Refund on My Tickets or Cancel My Order?

## Looking to get a refund or cancel your ticket order? Learn how to get your money back/cancel a pre-authorization in this article.

Event Hosts are in charge of setting a refund policy and granting refunds. To get a refund for your tickets, send a refund request to the Event Host. 

For **unconfirmed Theatrical on Demand® Screenings** / **Events on Demand™**, follow the same steps to request a Host cancel your order.

For **Video on Demand** rental refunds, please write to **support@gathr.com**.

   3.  Await the Host's response. They have 24 hours to accept or decline your request under the **Moderate** Policy. 

If your Event has a **Flexible** Policy, your refund request will be automatically accepted. 

   4. Refund Policies

### **Refund Policies**

- **Flexible:** When you request a refund under the Flexible Refund Policy, it's automatically accepted, and the Host receives an email. You have until 24 hours after an Event ends to request a refund.
- **Moderate:** The host is immediately notified via email when you request a refund under the Moderate Refund Policy. The Event Host then has 24 hours to review it and accept or deny this request.
- **Strict:** You may not request a refund under the Strict Refund Policy.

**Note -** Service Fees and Transactions Fees are always non-refundable. 

**Event Cancelation -** If an Event gets cancelled, you will receive a full refund. 

 

   5. Requesting a Refund After an Event Has Ended

After an Event ends, you have 48 hours to request a refund, so be sure to make your request before that period ends. 

Follow steps #1 - 3 above to complete your refund request. 

**Note**: Fees, such as Gathr's Service Fee and the Payment Processor's fee are non-refundable.
