Houfy facilitates communication between Hosts and Guests. Houfy does not take part in any transactions between Hosts and Guests. Each individual host on Houfy is responsible for refunds according to their own rules, policies and rental agreements.
How long does it take to get refunded by Square or Stripe?
My booking has been cancelled by the host but I have not been refunded. Please advise when my deposit will be refunded?
For Square connected accounts on Houfy the proces takes: 2-7 business days
The Square full refund time frame typically takes 2-7 business days. Once the refund is processed by the host and sent to the guest's card issuing bank, it can take another 2-7 business days (depending on the bank's processing speeds) for the refund to post to the guest's account.
For Stripe connected accounts on Houfy the proces takes: approximately 5-10 business days
After the host initiates a refund, Stripe submits refund requests the guest's bank or card issuer. The guest sees the refund as a credit approximately 5-10 business days later, depending upon the bank.
Houfy is not part of the transaction and does not hold any funds from guests or hosts.
