Cancellations Policy

When renting out through Fat Llama, owners can choose from three cancellation policies. Opting for the most flexible policy will make listings more attractive to potential borrowers.

OWNERS: Please note that if you, as the owner, cancel the booking, the renter will receive a full refund.
RENTERS: Please note, that if you cancel the booking these cancellation terms apply - this will only be valid BEFORE the rental start date

Owners can also refund partially anytime before the the order is marked as returned - please see the FAQ here.

FLEXIBLE



If cancelled at the latest 2 days before the rental period starts, 100% of the rental fee is refunded.
If cancelled the day before the rental period starts, 50% of the rental fee is refunded.
If cancelled on the same day the rental period starts, no refund will be issued.

Example:

You are renting out your hammer drill for Thursday. If the borrower cancels on Wednesday, they will receive a 50% refund. If the borrower cancels on Tuesday or earlier, they will receive a full refund.

MEDIUM



If cancelled at the latest 14 days before the rental period starts, 100% of the rental fee will be refunded.
If cancelled at the latest 7 days before the rental period starts, 50% of the rental fee will be refunded.
No refunds will be issued for cancellations made less than 7 days before the rental period starts.

Example:

You have a booking for a tent starting on Thursday. If the borrower cancels the booking on the Thursday of the previous week, they will receive a 50% refund. If the borrower cancels on the Thursday two weeks prior to the rental start date, they will receive a full refund.

STRICT



If cancelled at the latest 60 days before the rental period starts, 100% of the rental fee will be refunded.
If cancelled at the latest 30 days before the rental period starts, 50% of the rental fee will be refunded.
No refunds will be issued for cancellations made less than 30 days before the rental period starts.

Example:
