Cancelling a Groupon

Cancelling a Groupon
You can cancel or request a refund for your Groupon order, just like any other product or service you’ve purchased. However, before you learn how to cancel a Groupon or request a refund, you must first understand how Groupon works and under what circumstances you are eligible for a refund or cancellation.

Do I Have a Chance at a Groupon Refund?
When seeking to secure a refund for your Groupon, you must always keep the Groupon refund policy in mind. All Groupons are classified into one of four types, each with its own set of rules:

Local Deals: Within 3 days of purchase, you can return them for a refund.

Refunds are possible until the “book-by” date for Groupon Getaways
.
Goods purchased on Groupon can be returned for a refund within 30 days of delivery.

Groupon Live: Refunds are not available after the purchase date unless the event is canceled or rescheduled.

Final Sales are non-cancelable and non-returnable. You also won’t be able to cancel an order if you’ve seen your voucher.

Cancelling a Groupon
Once you identify which category your Groupon falls under and determine whether you qualify for a cancellation, you may proceed to process the cancellation and obtain a refund.

Use these steps to cancel your Groupons in any of the categories listed above with the exception of the Groupon Goods. For Groupon Goods, you must return it instead.

Open your preferred browser and go to Groupon.

Select Sign In.

If you’re in the cancellation window and don’t see the option to self-cancel, contact the customer support team.

If you miss the deadline to cancel your Groupon, you can trade in your Groupon for a different local deal.

You might be prompted once again for confirmation; select confirm.

You receive a notification when your order has been successfully canceled.

How Do I Return My Groupon Goods?
Groupon Goods cancellations work differently from any of the other categories. If you decide to cancel your order before it ships, the process is about the same. However, if your order has already shipped, the steps change a little bit.

Follow steps 1-5 from the cancellation process above.
Select Return Package.

Print your prepaid labeled.

Attach the label to the package and return it to Groupon.

Returns don’t qualify for a refund if they’re missing the Groupon Label.

After the refund is processed, you receive an email from Groupon with a subject titled “Your Refund Has Been Processed.”

It can take up to 10 business days for the refund to reflect in your account.

How to Trade In your Groupon?
If you miss the time allowed to process your cancellation, you can trade in your voucher.

Contact Groupon support to have the Trade In Voucher option enabled.

Select My Stuff > My Groupons and then select Trade In Voucher.

Click Confirm to finalize the trade-in.

Usually, support only gives you 24 hours to spend your Groupon Bucks after you trade in your voucher. That’s that about “Cancelling a Groupon”
