- Online (fastest): Direct cancel flow: www.klook.com/en-US/bookings/
- Email: Klook doesn’t process cancellations by email. Still worth sending one: it dates your cancellation request in writing, which matters for disputes and refunds.
Timing matters: Every booking carries its own deadline printed in its "Cancellation Policy" block, once the free-cancellation time passes no refund is given, and transport products lock at ticket issue, QR scan or 1 hour before departure. Klook Pass stops being refundable the moment one activity is reserved or used.
The email that backs it up
Klook won’t action a cancellation from an email alone, use the fastest channel above for the cancellation itself. This email still earns its place: it puts your cancellation date in writing (your evidence if they keep billing) and it’s where the refund request happens.

Subject:
Cancellation Request, [your account email]Send this template
Hi Klook team, I'm writing to cancel the subscription on my account, [your account email]. Please treat this as formal notice of cancellation, effective from the end of the current billing period. Under the FTC's Click-to-Cancel rule, cancellation must be available through a channel as simple as the one I signed up through. Please confirm by reply that the subscription has been cancelled and that no further charges will be taken. Best, [your name]
Wait for confirmation
Wait 24 hours. If there's no response, send a polite one-line follow-up referencing the original request.
What happens to what you’ve already paid
Klook is a per-booking marketplace, not a subscription, every refund rule attaches to the individual activity, ticket, hotel, transfer or eSIM you bought, and the deadline is printed in that booking's "Cancellation Policy" section. Bookings are labelled free cancellation (full refund inside the window), conditional cancellation (tiered fees, e.g. Korea intercity bus tickets refund in full until 2 days before departure, then 5%, 10% and 30% fees apply), or no cancellation (no refund at all). Klook Pass is refundable within its activation validity only while unreserved and unused; eSIMs are usually refundable while the data is untouched but never for device-compatibility problems. Once a booking is completed, a ticket is issued/QR-scanned, or the free-cancellation clock runs out, Klook states no refund is given, and approved refunds go back to the original payment method in 3 to 14 days, or via bank transfer taking up to 30 business days if the card route fails.
“10.4.1 You may cancel your Voucher by contacting Klook customer service within the cancelation period, as stated at the time of purchase on the Klook Platform.”

Does Klook charge a cancellation fee?
We found no cancellation fee in Klook’s published terms. On a rolling plan you simply pay to the end of the current billing period and nothing after. If you’re inside a fixed minimum term, check your signup email for the end date, cancelling early is where fees usually hide.
What doesn’t work for cancelling Klook
Based on 4 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.
- ✕ Emailing or chatting to cancel a booking labelled "no cancellation", Klook's own help text says no cancellation/refunds will be provided for those activities and no refunds after the booking/activity is completed, agents have no discretion to override the listing's policy.
- ✕ Calling a Klook hotline to cancel, Klook publishes no general cancellation phone number, its help centre routes everything to in-booking chat, and consumer directories note the voucher-printed number is the only phone route (Resolver has no number for Klook at all).
- ✕ Cancelling after the ticket is issued, picked up or the QR code scanned, For rail/transport products Klook states changes and cancellations are no longer allowed once the ticket is issued, scanned or within an hour of departure.
- ✕ Simply not turning up and expecting an automatic refund, No-shows are explicitly excluded, car rental and activity policies confirm no refund for no-shows or latecomers.
- ✕ Asking the attraction, hotel or operator to refund you directly, Klook operates as a voucher/booking intermediary; operators send customers back to Klook, and only Klook can process the refund of the payment it took.
- ✕ Waiting on chat/email replies while the free-cancellation deadline runs down, Reviewers repeatedly report slow or no response, with refunds reduced to partial once the window lapsed, the deadline is not paused while your ticket sits unanswered.
Cancelled Klook but still being charged?
Three common reasons, in order of likelihood:
- The cancellation didn’t actually complete. If you never received a written confirmation from Klook, treat it as not cancelled. Email
support@klook.comreferencing your original request date and ask for written confirmation plus a refund of any charge taken since. - You cancelled in the wrong place. Subscriptions started through the App Store or Google Play bill through Apple or Google, cancelling on Klook’s site doesn’t touch them. Check Settings → Subscriptions on iPhone, or Play Store → Payments & subscriptions on Android.
- Billing lag. A charge that was already in flight when you cancelled can still land a few days later. One trailing charge can be normal; two is not.
If they keep charging after a confirmed cancellation, that’s chargeback territory: dispute the charge with your bank citing “subscription cancelled, merchant continued billing”. The yoink app also flags this automatically, it keeps watching your inbox after a confirmed cancellation and alerts you if Klook charges again.
How Klook will try to keep you
Klook may respond with a retention offer, a discount, a free month, or a downgrade to a cheaper tier. Don't engage with the counteroffer. Restate that you want a full cancellation and cite the consumer law again if they push back.
They’ll say: “Refund offered as KlookCash / platform credit rather than money back to your card”
You say: Klook's help pages confirm KlookCash used on a booking is auto-returned to your account, but for the cash portion say plainly: "I am requesting the refund to the original payment method, not KlookCash credit, per your published refund policy."
They’ll say: “Deflection to the operator or merchant ("contact the merchant via Bookings > Contact Merchant")”
You say: Reply: "My contract for payment is with Klook, which took the funds and issued the voucher. Please confirm in writing that the operator refused, and process the refund yourself."
They’ll say: “Partial refund offered after a slow response pushed you past the deadline”
You say: Reviewers report only receiving a partial refund because support responded slowly. Quote your first-contact timestamp: "My cancellation request was submitted at [time/date], inside the free-cancellation window. Delay in your response cannot reduce my refund, please refund in full."
They’ll say: “Silence / ticket left open until the activity date passes, then "activity completed, no refund"”
You say: State that the booking was unused and cancellation was requested before the start time, attach the chat transcript, and add: "If I have no substantive reply within 7 days I will raise a payment dispute with my card issuer."
They’ll say: “"Reschedule instead of cancel" offer on weather/closure disruptions”
You say: Rescheduling is fine only if it suits you, otherwise: "Under your own terms, where an event is cancelled by the operator you process a full refund to the card used. I am declining a date change and requesting that refund."

Delete your Klook account (not just cancel)
Cancelling stops the billing; deleting removes your account and personal data. Do them in that order, deleting an account with an active subscription can leave the billing running with no way to log in and stop it.
If there’s no delete option in Klook’s account settings, email support@klook.com with the subject Account deletion request, [your account email] and ask for your account and personal data to be erased under state privacy laws such as the CCPA. They’re typically required to act on it, most companies complete erasure within about 30 days, and you should ask for written confirmation when it’s done.
Common questions about cancelling Klook
Klook emails you a cancellation confirmation, then refunds the money to the payment method you originally used. Klook's help centre says the refund can take **3 to 14 days** to show up depending on your payment method; if the original card route fails, the refund is sent by bank transfer, which reports as taking up to 30 business days. Any **KlookCash** you spent on the booking is returned to your Klook account automatically and can be reused. One-time-use promo codes are usually not reissued, check the code's terms before you cancel.
Money-back questions (windows, pro-rata, chargebacks) are covered in the Klook refund guide. Need a human for something else entirely? The Klook contact guide lists every channel that actually answers.
