Refund and Cancellation Policy (Subscriptions and Class Bookings)

Last updated on Nov 08, 2026

Last updated: February 2026

Overview

This policy explains:

  • How to cancel a Movement Atlas subscription and what happens after cancellation
  • When subscription fees are refundable (generally not)
  • How refunds work for marketplace bookings (classes/sessions/events booked through the platform)
  • How to request help or dispute a refund decision

Subscription cancellation

You can cancel your Movement Atlas subscription at any time:

  • From your account settings, or
  • By contacting hello@movementatlas.com

After you cancel:

  • Your subscription stays active until the end of the current billing period (monthly or annual).
  • You keep full access until that date.
  • After the billing period ends, your account is downgraded and you lose access to premium features.
  • Export any data you want to keep before the subscription expires.

Subscription refunds (software service)

Subscription fees are non-refundable, except where mandatory consumer protection law requires otherwise.

This applies to:

  • Monthly subscription fees
  • Annual subscription fees
  • Add-ons and upgrades
  • One-time setup/onboarding/customization fees (once the service has been initiated)

Additional detail:

  • Monthly subscriptions: If you cancel mid-month, you keep access until the period ends, but no refund is issued for unused days.
  • Annual subscriptions: If you cancel mid-year, you keep access until the end of the 12-month period, but no partial/prorated refund is issued.

EU/UK: 14-day cooling-off period

If you are a consumer resident in the EU or UK, you may have the statutory right to withdraw within 14 calendar days of entering the contract.

To exercise this right:

  • Email support@movementatlas.com
  • Use the subject line: “Cooling-Off Withdrawal”
  • Include your account email and order date

Refunds (when applicable) are issued within 14 days to the original payment method.

Note: If you consent to immediate provision of the digital service, the right of withdrawal may lapse once full performance has begun. Where withdrawal is exercised after partial performance, a proportionate amount may be retained.


Marketplace booking refunds (classes, sessions, events)

This section applies to payments made by end-users (students/customers) for classes, sessions, or events offered by businesses/instructors/studios on the Movement Atlas platform.

Movement Atlas applies a standardized refund matrix across the marketplace.

Standard booking refund matrix

Cancellation window Refund Notes
Cancel at or before the cutoff — 24h for group & workshop classes; 48h for 1:1 private 100% cash refund Refunded to original payment method within 5–10 business days.
Cancel after the cutoff (late cancellation) 0% cash, 100% wallet credit Credit goes to your Movement Atlas wallet; valid 90 days and usable for any future booking.
No-show (didn’t attend and didn’t cancel before cutoff) No refund, no credit (forfeit) Instructor is paid for the reserved slot.
Attendance not recorded by the class provider No automatic cash refund Booking is marked complete when provider enters your completion code after class. In India (when you and provider are both in India), completion is recorded only through that code and payout isn’t released until entered. Elsewhere, if not entered, booking auto-confirms 3 days after class ends. Completion status is not a refund decision; if you believe a refund is due, raise a dispute (see “Disputes”).
Operator-cancelled / platform downtime 100% cash refund If the operator cancels, or the booking couldn’t be honored due to platform downtime over 60 minutes during the booking window, a full refund is issued automatically.

How cancellation time is measured

  • Cutoffs are measured from the scheduled class start time shown at booking, using the time zone of the class location.
  • Cancellations made in the app/web are timestamped server-side; the server timestamp is authoritative.

Wallet credit rules

Wallet credit issued under the matrix:

  • Expires 90 days from the date of issue
  • Can be applied to any marketplace booking
  • Is non-transferable
  • Is not refundable to cash and not exchangeable for currency, except where required by law

Operator overrides

Operators may offer terms more generous than the standard matrix (e.g., longer free-cancellation window).

  • Operators may not offer terms that are less favorable than the matrix.
  • Any operator-specific override is disclosed at booking and recorded against the booking.

Disputes

If you believe a refund decision is incorrect (for example, attendance was misrecorded):

  • Contact support@movementatlas.com within 14 days of the class.
  • Movement Atlas will investigate (including system logs and provider records) and respond within 5 business days.
  • While a dispute is open, automatic refund and payout execution for the booking is paused.
  • You may appeal within 14 days as described in the Dispute & Chargeback Policy.

Refund timing

  • Cash refunds are returned to the original payment method within 5–10 business days.
  • The time for the refund to appear depends on your bank or card issuer.

India consumer protection carveout

Nothing in the marketplace section limits any non-waivable rights under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 or other applicable Indian consumer law. Where Indian law provides a stronger remedy, that remedy applies.


Exceptions (case-by-case)

In addition to the rules above, refunds may be considered in limited circumstances:

  • Duplicate charges: If you were charged more than once for the same billing period or booking due to a system error, the duplicate charge will be refunded.
  • Service unavailability: If the service has downtime exceeding 72 consecutive hours due to issues on Movement Atlas’s end, a partial credit may be issued at Movement Atlas’s discretion.
  • Legal requirements: Refunds will be provided where required by applicable consumer protection law.

Payment processing

Payments are processed through Stripe and Razorpay:

  • Razorpay processes payments in INR when both you and the class provider are in India.
  • Stripe processes all other payments, including international and card payments.

When refunds apply, they are processed back to the original payment method (typically within 5–10 business days).


How to request help, cancellation, or a refund review

Email is the fastest option. Include your registered email address, account name, and the reason for your request.

  • General email: hello@movementatlas.com
  • Support (refunds/disputes): support@movementatlas.com

Mailing address:

  • 8 The Green, Suite R, Dover, DE 19901, United States

Policy changes

Movement Atlas may update this policy from time to time. Updates will be posted with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use of the service after changes means you accept the updated policy.
