Marketing: How to request a refund for leads

Refunds and reimbursements are only issued when a lead or customer contact clearly doesn’t meet our quality standards or match the service you offer.

Updated over a week ago

You can only submit a refund request if it matches an approved reason below.

When lead refunds apply

Here are the only ways a lead refund applies:

  • The lead was about a different type of job than what you offer.

  • The customer’s contact info is invalid or fake.

  • The lead is duplicate or already hired someone else before contacting you.

  • The message is spam, fraudulent, or abusive.

We review every request carefully to make sure it meets our refund policy.

Before submitting a refund request, make sure it's covered by a reason above and you’ve made a reasonable, good-faith effort to contact the customer.

This means:

  • Reaching out multiple times, not just once

  • Using all available contact methods, including in-app messages and calling the phone number provided

  • Allowing reasonable time for the customer to respond

Important: All refund requests must be submitted within 14 days of receiving the lead.

Clear communication attempts and timely requests help ensure refunds are processed fairly and consistently.


When lead refunds don’t apply

Some situations are not eligible for refunds:

  • The customer didn’t reply or respond after you messaged or texted them.

  • The customer's phone number was valid, but they didn't answer the phone.

  • This customer hired someone else on our platform.

  • The customer thought your price quote was too high.

  • You changed your mind or didn’t follow up.

  • The customer declined your offer but the lead was valid.

  • The lead included accurate information and fit your service area or category.

  • The refund request was submitted more than 14 days after you received the lead.

We know not every lead becomes a customer, but only certain cases qualify for refunds.

If you ask for too many refunds overall, relative to peers in your area, your request will be automatically denied and you may not get an email update about the status of your refund.

If the report button is not available, it means too much time has passed and this lead is not long able to be refunded.
