This Refund Policy applies to all bookings made through the Comutte platform, operated by Eniena Technologies Limited (trading as "Comutte"). It covers cancellations, refunds, rebooking, and dispute resolution for bus travel purchased via our website, mobile app, or WhatsApp booking service.
You may cancel a confirmed booking at any time before departure. Refund amounts depend on how far in advance you cancel:
| Cancellation Window | Refund |
|---|---|
| 24 hours or more before departure | 100% minus non-refundable booking fee |
| 12 – 24 hours before departure | 70% of fare |
| Less than 12 hours before departure | No refund |
Cancellation times are calculated relative to the scheduled departure time in Ghana time (UTC+0).
If a bus operator cancels a trip for any reason — including mechanical issues, weather, or insufficient bookings — you will receive a full refund of the fare, including the booking fee. We will notify you by email (and WhatsApp, if your booking was made via WhatsApp) as soon as we are informed of the cancellation.
If you do not board the bus and have not cancelled your booking before departure, no refund is provided. The booking is treated as used.
We do not currently offer automatic rebooking. If you cancel a booking, you may make a new booking for a different trip at the current fare. If an operator cancels your trip, you may book an alternative trip after receiving your refund. Fare differences between the original and replacement trip are your responsibility.
Refunds are processed as follows:
You will receive an email or WhatsApp confirmation when the refund is initiated.
If a trip is significantly disrupted after departure (e.g. the bus breaks down mid-journey and no replacement is provided), you may request a partial refund. These requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Contact us within 48 hours of the disruption with your booking reference and a description of what happened.
Each booking includes a small, non-refundable booking fee that covers payment processing and platform costs. This fee is displayed before you confirm payment. The booking fee is refunded only when the operator cancels the trip.
If you disagree with a refund decision or believe you are entitled to a refund not covered by this policy, you may raise a dispute:
If you initiate a chargeback through your bank or card issuer without first contacting us, we reserve the right to suspend your account pending investigation. We encourage you to contact us directly before filing a chargeback — most issues can be resolved faster through our support process.
We may update this Refund Policy from time to time. The current version is always available at this page. Material changes will be communicated via the Platform or by email before they take effect. Bookings made before a policy change are governed by the policy in effect at the time of booking.
