A cancellation fee is the compensation that is automatically added to your earnings when:
- You cancel the trip as the rider does not show after you have arrived at their pickup location
- The rider cancels after a certain time frame of you accepting their order and driving towards their pickup location. This time frame varies by country/city.
Please note that the cancellation fee is subject to Bolt commission.
Cancellation is not compensated if:
- The rider cancels the ride within a certain time frame (2-5 minutes) of you accepting their order
- You exceeded the estimated time of arrival to the pickup location
- You marked that you arrived or cancelled far from the selected pickup location
- You were waiting for the rider far from the chosen pickup location or moved after arriving at the pickup location and before cancelling
- You cancel at the pickup location before waiting for the recommended 7 minutes
- The selected payment method is cash
- Note: Cancellation fees for cash rides may be reimbursed when the conditions above are met. To request a cancellation fee for a cash ride, contact our Support team through this article.
