What’s the ride cancellation policy?
When the rider cancels, you get a cancellation fee if:
-You are en-route to the pickup location
-It happens more than 3 mins after you had accepted the ride
-You were heading towards the pickup location and were on track to arrive no more than 5 minutes later than the estimated time of arrival shown to you on your app at the time of acceptance.
Alternatively:
-The rider cancels after you have arrived at the pickup location
-You arrived no more than 5 minutes after the estimated arrival time shown on your app at the time of acceptance.
When you cancel, you get a cancellation fee if:
-You arrived at the pickup location no more than 5 minutes after the estimated time of arrival shown on your app when you accepted the booking
-You waited for at least 5 min after you had reached the pickup location after tapping the ‘Reached Pickup’ button (indicated by the countdown timer within the app)
You will not get a cancellation fee if:
-The cancellation takes place within the first 3 minutes after your acceptance
-You’re running more than 5 minutes late to the pickup location
-You reach the pickup location more than 5 minutes after the original ETA
