Cancelling or rescheduling.

the real rule, not a guess

Working draft. This text is awaiting review by a lawyer familiar with Indian health-data law (DPDP Act) and is not final. It exists so you can see our intent plainly, today.

The free window

You can cancel or reschedule any confirmed session yourself, free, any time up to 12 hours before it starts — no reason required, and nobody will guilt you for it. Your slot is released the moment you do.

Inside 12 hours

Once you're inside that 12-hour window, self-service cancelling and rescheduling turns off in the app. Email support@cashew.app and a person will sort it out with you directly.

If you already paid

Cancelling releases your slot right away, but refunding money already paid — for a single session or one drawn from a package — isn't automatic yet. Email support@cashew.app and we'll process it by hand; we're building the automatic version next.

If your therapist has to cancel

This should never cost you anything. If your therapist needs to cancel, tell us or wait to hear from us — our team makes sure you keep your credit or get rebooked. Today we do this by hand, case by case, while we finish an automatic version.

Not the right fit, even after booking?

That's different from a scheduling cancellation. Email support@cashew.app and we'll re-match you with someone else — free, no questions, no guilt.
