Cancellation policy

Effective Date: 04.05.2025

At STUBAY, we understand that sometimes students may need to cancel orders due to schedule changes, communication delays, or listing errors. However, because STUBAY is a peer-to-peer platform, cancellations are managed directly between buyers and sellers. The following policy outlines the acceptable conditions for order cancellations.


🛑 1. CANCELLATION BY BUYER

Buyers may request to cancel an order before the item is handed over or shipped by:

  • Contacting the seller directly through the STUBAY messaging system.

  • Explaining the reason for cancellation politely and clearly.

Sellers are not obligated to accept a cancellation request, especially if the item has already been packed or delivered.


📦 2. CANCELLATION BY SELLER

Sellers may cancel an order if:

  • The item is no longer available or was listed by mistake.

  • They suspect suspicious or fraudulent activity.

  • The buyer fails to respond or confirm within a reasonable time.

Sellers must notify the buyer as soon as possible and, if payment has already been made (in future versions of STUBAY with integrated payments), initiate a refund if agreed.


3. TIMING FOR CANCELLATIONS

  • Cancellation should be requested within 24 hours of order placement or before delivery, whichever comes first.

  • If the transaction has already been completed in person or delivery confirmed, cancellation is no longer possible.


⚖️ 4. DISPUTES & ABUSE

  • Repeated last-minute cancellations by either party may lead to account warnings or suspension by STUBAY.

  • If a buyer or seller experiences a serious issue, they can contact STUBAY support for investigation.
