Cancellations & refundsUpdated 11 Oct 2026

Can I give my spot to someone else?

Sometimes, and it depends on the situation. Ask us rather than assuming, and always better than a no-show.


Sometimes, and it depends on the situation. Message us and we will look at it. Handing your spot to someone else is not an automatic right, it is something we sort out case by case.

When it is worth asking

You booked, something came up, and you know someone who can take your place. Ask, especially if the cancellation deadline has passed and you can no longer cancel.

We look at how full the game is, how close to kick-off we are, and whether the person taking over can actually be added in time.

What we need from you

Message the support chat with the game and the name of the person taking your place. Do it as early as you can. An hour before kick-off is workable, ten minutes before usually is not.

You settle the money between yourselves. We do not handle that side.

If the cancellation deadline has not passed

Do not bother asking. Just cancel in the app, the money goes straight back to your KickHub wallet, and the spot goes back on sale for someone else. That is cleaner for everyone and it is what keeps games full.

Why we do not make it automatic

An open transfer system turns into people reselling spots for popular games. Keeping it as a conversation means we can help when someone genuinely cannot make it, without creating a market.

The one thing to avoid

Sending someone in your place without telling us. The organiser has a list, teams are built from it, and a name that does not match creates a problem at exactly the moment they are trying to start a game.

Can I transfer my KickHub booking to a friend?

Sometimes. It is decided case by case, so message support with the game and the name of the person taking your place, as early as you can. You settle the money between yourselves.

Should I transfer my spot or cancel it?

If the cancellation deadline has not passed (12 hours before kick-off, 20 for a morning game), cancel in the app instead. The money goes back to your KickHub wallet and the spot goes back on sale.

Can I send someone in my place without telling KickHub?

No. The organiser builds the teams from the booking list, so tell support first.
