Is It Bad to Cancel an Order on Fiverr?

Last updated on September 28, 2022 @ 8:30 pm

It’s no secret that Fiverr is a great platform for freelancers to sell their services. With over 3 million gigs available, there’s no shortage of options to choose from. However, with so many options available, it’s not surprising that buyers sometimes change their minds about what they want, or that they may find a better deal elsewhere.

When this happens, it’s not uncommon for buyers to cancel their orders on Fiverr. But is this really a bad thing?

There are a few things to consider before cancelling an order on Fiverr. First, what is the reason for the cancellation?

PRO TIP: If you cancel an order on Fiverr, the freelancer who was working on your project will not be paid. This is considered bad practice and can result in a negative feedback rating for you.

If it’s simply because you’ve found a better deal elsewhere, then cancelling isn’t necessarily a bad thing. After all, you’re only out the cost of the gig (which is usually only $5).

However, if you’re cancelling because you’re not happy with the quality of work you’ve received, then you may want to reconsider. This is because leaving a negative review could hurt the seller’s business. So if you do cancel an order, be sure to leave a detailed and constructive review so that other buyers can make an informed decision.

In the end, whether or not cancelling an order on Fiverr is a bad thing depends on your reasons for doing so. If you’re simply trying to get a better deal, then there’s no harm in cancelling. But if you’re cancelling because you’re unhappy with the work, then be sure to leave a detailed review so that others can make an informed decision about whether or not to use that particular seller.
