Joiin's Legally Aligned Refund Policy
Last Updated: April 18, 2025
Reimbursement Reversals
Joiin is a cost-sharing platform, not a transport provider. Users contribute toward shared fuel and vehicle wear-and-tear costs. In certain situations, Joiin may reverse that contribution:
Eligible for Reimbursement Reversal
- Driver Unavailable at Agreed Time
If the driver doesn't arrive within 10 minutes and no alternative match is found, your contribution will be credited back to your Joiin Wallet.
- Trip Coordination Issue
If technical or system issues prevent the ride from being matched or completed.
- Advance Rider Cancellation
- Full reversal if rider cancels 2+ hours before the trip
- 50% if cancelled between 1–2 hours
- No reversal if cancelled less than 1 hour before departure
- Technical Glitches
Double-charges or payment errors will be reviewed and reversed after validation.
Non-Reversible Contributions
- If the ride was completed successfully
- Rider canceled too late
- Rider was a no-show
- Contributions already reimbursed to the driver
Reimbursement Reversal Method
- Joiin Wallet credit is returned instantly
- Card/Apple Pay contributions reversed within 5–7 business days
- You'll see your contribution status under Ride History > Contribution > Wallet Activity
Note
All contributions are for cost-sharing purposes only and do not constitute payment for transport services. Joiin is not a transport provider.

Disclaimer: Joiin enables secure cost-sharing between professionals commuting to and from work. We do not employ drivers or offer transport for commercial gain. All contributions are voluntary, non-profit-based, and within the SARS reimbursement guidelines. No PDP is required.
