Cancellation policy
This policy explains how cancellations, rescheduling, Stripe refunds, and manual Interac e-Transfer refunds are handled for JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals. Final launch wording should be reviewed before live payments are accepted.
Before payment
- A rental request is not charged until JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals sends a Stripe Checkout link or manual Interac e-Transfer instructions and the customer completes payment.
- Quote amounts, rental dates, delivery or pickup details, and the damage deposit are confirmed before the payment link or e-transfer instructions are sent.
- If the quote expires before payment, JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals may issue a new quote before accepting payment.
After payment and confirmation
- Paid rentals are confirmed after Stripe verifies payment, or after JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals verifies an Interac e-Transfer in the bank account, and the final availability check is complete.
- If a rare availability conflict is found after payment, JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals will contact the customer promptly to rebook or refund the payment.
- Cancellation requests after payment are reviewed based on timing, preparation work already completed, delivery arrangements, and the ability to rebook the dates.
Refunds and damage deposit
- Approved Stripe refunds are issued back through Stripe to the original payment method whenever possible. Approved Interac e-Transfer refunds are sent manually and recorded by the owner.
- Bank and card processing timelines are controlled by Stripe, Interac, and the customer payment provider after JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals submits the refund.
- The damage deposit is reviewed after return and may be fully refunded, partially refunded, or retained for missing items, damage, late return, or extra cleaning.
Rescheduling and special cases
- Weather, travel delays, illness, or family emergencies are handled case by case. Please contact JJ’s Baby Gear Rentals as early as possible.
- No-show pickups, refused deliveries, unsafe setup conditions, or unreachable customers may affect refund eligibility.
- Any exception offered in writing applies only to that rental and does not change this policy for future rentals.
