If ticket funds were processed directly into your own payment gateway account, please contact us.
If your event is a series of scheduled events, simply select the schedules you need to cancel. Note that you are not able to cancel schedules that have already passed.

Ticket buyers will be sent an email letting them know that you have cancelled the event.

Please contact us if funds were processed into your own account.
Postpone an event
If you're changing the dates of your event and chose not to enable refunds, ticket buyers will get two weeks to request a refund. Refunds can only be requested before the new date of your event. Refunds will be closed thereafter.
You can choose to absorb the refund fee (which is Quicket's commission fee) or to pass that fee onto the buyer.
Transfer attendees in an event series
If you have a series of events with separate schedules, you can simply transfer attendees to new schedules if you need to postpone an old schedule. Find more info on how to transfer your attendees here.
