Refund / Cancel Bookings

Things to know before you cancel or refund.

  • When you cancel/refund a booking, the booking will then appear in a different colour (Check visual change legends).
  • You should only refund a booking when the channel has marked the booking as cancelled or the guest has notified you so that no commission is charged by the channel and then the booking can be cancelled in UseROSS.
  • You will be able to run a refund through UseROSS only if the booking is a UseROSS VCC.
  • The refund amount will normally appear on the guest’s bank statement within 48 hours depending on the guest’s bank.
  • The refund will be applied to the credit card they used to make the booking.
