Refund Policy
Last updated: April 2026
At BoatMate, we want both boat owners and service providers to have a fair and transparent experience.
Cancellation by Boat Owner
If you cancel a service request more than 24 hours before the scheduled time, you will receive a full refund. Cancellations within 24 hours of the scheduled service may be subject to a cancellation fee of up to 25% of the service cost, as the provider may have already prepared for the job.
Cancellation by Service Provider
If a service provider cancels an accepted job, you will receive a full refund automatically. We will also help you find an alternative provider. Providers who repeatedly cancel may be removed from the platform.
Service Disputes
If you are unsatisfied with a completed service, contact us within 48 hours at [email protected]. We will review the situation and may offer a partial or full refund depending on the circumstances. We may request photos or documentation to assess the dispute.
No-Show Policy
If a service provider does not show up for a scheduled service, you will receive a full refund. If a boat owner is not present or does not provide access as agreed, the provider may charge a no-show fee.
How Refunds Are Processed
Refunds are issued to the original payment method within 5-10 business days. You will receive an in-app notification and email confirmation when the refund is processed.
Platform Fees
BoatMate service fees are non-refundable in cases of late cancellation by the boat owner. In all other refund scenarios, the full amount including platform fees will be refunded.
