How to View Cancellation Requests
- On the Manage Orders page, you'll find the 'Action Needed' tab. This gives you a quick overview of the number of cancellations you've received. Clicking on the 'Cancellation' filter will redirect you to the 'All' tab, where you can see all auto-approved cancellations and cancellation requests you've received.
If you hover your cursor over 'Cancellation,' you'll see more details, including:- Auto-approved cancellation: These are any cancellation requests that the platform has automatically approved. Click 'View' to go to the 'Cancelled' tab. Here, you'll see a warning that you don't need to hand over this order to logistics, and you can hover over the order status for more details, such as the reason for cancellation.


- Cancellation requested: These are cancellation requests that you need to review and respond to. Click 'View' to find the orders.
- If the buyer requests to cancel the order before the seller clicks 'Arrange Shipment,' you have 2 calendar days to respond to the cancellation request.
- If the buyer requests to cancel the order after the seller clicks 'Arrange Shipment,' you have 1 business day to respond to the cancellation request.



How to Cancel Your Order
As a seller, if you're unable to fulfil an order and want to cancel a buyer's order, you can do so before changing the status to 'Shipped.'- On the Manage Orders page, select the order you want to cancel. Then, choose More Actions > Cancel. Next, select the cancellation reason and confirm.

❗️Please note that if you initiate the cancellation due to a seller's fault, such as no stock or incorrect pricing, your cancellation will be classified as a seller-fault cancellation and will be included in the SFCR.Learn more about the cancellation policy and SFCR.
