How to get a refund at Hostinger

We are truly sorry to hear that you are considering refunding your services.

Before initiating the refund process, we recommend downloading all the necessary data since your services will be canceled as soon as you submit the refund request. Your files, databases, and emails will be deleted permanently. Learn more:

If your website was built with Hostinger AI Builder, backups can’t be downloaded the same way. Manually save any content you want to keep, such as text, images, and product listings, before requesting a refund.

Find the payment ID to refund

Once you download all the data you want to keep, open your Hostinger dashboard, click the profile icon in the top-right corner, and select Billing → Payment History. This page lists all payment IDs from the last 30 days.

If the Payment ID is refundable, you’ll find the Refund button:

You can also click on the downward arrow to see the Payment ID details. If the service has auto-renewal enabled, you can disable the auto-renewal or proceed with the refund.

NOTES

Invoices paid using Hostinger credits can also be refunded back to your Hostinger Balance directly through this flow, without needing to contact support. A refund to balance can only be issued once every 12 months per invoice. If you’ve reached this limit, you’ll see an error message explaining why.
If the refund button is missing, it means that the Payment ID is not eligible for a refund as per our Refund Policy.
Refund eligibility depends on the product and on the transaction date, which includes the date a renewal is processed. For example, domain name renewals are listed as not available for refund in the Refund policy.
Refund is available only if you request it within refund eligibility period based on the transaction date. To stop future charges without a refund, see How to stop auto-renewal.
