Modified on Thu, 12 Sep at 5:26 PM

TABLE OF CONTENTS



We understand that plans can change. Depending on the progress of the booking, different options are available. Our policy is required to protect and compensate providers and cover the costs involved in the event of a cancellation.



Pending Bookings

Pending bookings are unconfirmed requests that are waiting to be accepted by a provider.

  • You are not charged for a pending booking request until it is accepted and confirmed by a provider.
  • You may reschedule or cancel pending booking requests at any time without penalty.




Confirmed Bookings

Confirmed bookings are requests that a provider has accepted.

  • The booking payment is charged when a booking is confirmed.
  • Just send a request from your web / mobile app should you wish to update your confirmed booking. (How do I modify/update my booking?
  • If the booking details have been updated after the booking has been confirmed (such as; treatment type, address, gender of the recipient, etc.), the provider has the right to decline the change/s and cancellation fees may apply.

  • If cancelled after confirmation. The processing fee is non-refundable.
  • Bookings made with Afterpay incur an additional cancellation fee equivalent to 6% of the Service Fee.

    • Is on the way, has arrived or has started the session.
    • Has arrived, and you do not allow or arrange access for the provider to your booking location.
    • Has arrived, and you are more than 20 minutes late to your scheduled appointment. Providers will wait up to 20 minutes if you are running late; after this time, we consider this a 'no-show' and the provider may leave.




Afterpay

Confirmed bookings made with Afterpay incur a 6% fee if cancelled more than 24 hours before the scheduled start time. Standard cancellation fees occur if cancelled less than 24 hours before the scheduled start time.



Corporate / Group bookings

All confirmed Group bookings (including but not limited to bookings for offices / teams, events, and other groups of 4 or more people) will be subject to payment of 10% of the total booking value to Blys as a platform fee if called off once the Booking Request is accepted by the service provider/s.

Additionally, the following will also apply:

Refunds

Refunds take approximately 3-5 business days to return to your account.


If a booking payment involves a coupon or store credit and needs to be partially refunded, the refund amount will be converted to store credit.




Failed or Declined payments

You will be given time which you can see from your app on how much time you still have to settle your payment.


If the payment was not settled in the given time frame, your booking will automatically be cancelled to free up the time your therapist allocated for you so she/he can allocate that to another client.

Contra-indication

If you have a current condition, please provide details in the "Notes to your therapist" section in the online booking form so that your service provider will be advised accordingly about your condition.


It is also very important that you discuss with your service provider your health history in advance, and provide as much information as possible that could be useful to them.


Please know that you will be charged a cancellation fee equivalent (100%) to the relevant service if you have not indicated at the time of placing your booking request any pre-existing conditions, injuries, or allergies which should be considered contra-indications.




Via Mobile App




Via Web App





Illness or other

If you are sick or unwell we recommend using the in-app messaging feature to contact your provider and request to reschedule your booking to a future date. If they do not accept your request, you will still incur a cancellation fee. 



No-shows

In the rare case that the provider does not arrive for your booking or is more than 20 minutes late, we will consider this booking a no-show. The client has the right to cancel the booking with no charge and will be refunded 100% of the service and the platform fees.


Just like we have a no-show policy for providers, the same rules apply to clients. If the client is not available or ready for the appointment or is more than 20 minutes late, the booking will be considered a no-show with the client will accrue a 100% cancellation fee.
