This Refund & Dispute Policy outlines how refunds, cancellations, and disputes are handled on Bridgr. By using the platform, you agree to the terms described below.
1. Overview
Bridgr acts as a platform connecting Buyers and Freelancers. While we facilitate transactions and may assist in resolving disputes, all services are provided by independent freelancers.
Refunds and disputes are handled based on fairness, service agreements, and the nature of the issue.
2. When Refunds Are Applicable
A Buyer may be eligible for a refund under the following circumstances:
- The freelancer fails to deliver the service within the agreed timeframe
- The delivered work is significantly different from the agreed requirements
- The freelancer is unresponsive or inactive
- The order is cancelled before work has begun
Refunds are not guaranteed and are subject to review.
3. Non-Refundable Situations
Refunds may not be provided in the following cases:
- The Buyer has approved or accepted the final delivery
- The project requirements were unclear or changed mid-way
- Minor differences that do not affect the core deliverables
- Delays caused by lack of communication from the Buyer
4. Cancellation Policy
4.1 Buyer-Initiated Cancellation
Buyers may request cancellation if:
- Work has not started
- The freelancer agrees to cancel
4.2 Freelancer-Initiated Cancellation
Freelancers may cancel orders if:
- The Buyer is unresponsive
- Requirements are unclear or repeatedly changed
5. Dispute Resolution Process
If an issue arises, the following process applies:
- Direct Communication

All decisions made by Bridgr are final.
6. Payment Protection
Payments made on Bridgr are held securely until:

- The order is marked as complete
This ensures fairness for both Buyers and Freelancers.

Delays may occur based on banking or payment providers.
