I am a total beginner, any options for me?

Free cancellation, with full refund, is permitted up to 24 hours before game. Within 24 hours, cancellation is no longer permitted.&nbsp;If your plans change within 24 hours of the game and you can't make it, contact us <a href="https://strangersoccer.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: " open="" sans",="" "helvetica="" neue",="" helvetica,="" arial,="" sans-serif;"="">here</a> so we can take note. "No shows" can affect the game experience and are frowned upon.

What is the game withdrawal policy for individuals?

In extraordinary situations, we will make an exception. These include hospitalization or death in the family. Please contact transactions@strangersoccer.com with supporting documentation. Extraordinary situations do NOT include illness, injury, conflict at work, or the like. Remember, even if the game fills up after your last minute withdrawal, this is usually because our team spent time finding a replacement, often using discounts or by offering a free slot, so as to not disrupt the experience of other players.

Can you make an exception, and refund me less than 24 hours to game time?

A full refund will be made.

What happens if a game is cancelled?

Yes. By 'pre-booking' a recurring weekly slot at your favourite game, you will guarantee availability AND enjoy lower pricing: up to 10% less. Upon doing so, you will be automatically added to the weekly game when it is listed. Can't make it in a particular week? No worries. Just withdraw: standard cancellation rules apply. To explore further, click on the 'Lock in Your Weekly Slot' button on the home page of the app or website.

What is early bird pricing?

If a game is full, you can join the waiting list. If a spot opens up and you are the next in line, you will be automatically added to the game, and updated via App notification and email. You can also monitor the game itself, to see if you were added. Please ensure you have enough credits in your account to be added to the game

How does the waiting list work?

All players must turn up and wait up to 30 minutes from the game's start time. The Host or Referee will assess conditions, and determine whether to cancel the game. If the game is cancelled, a full refund will be issued. If the game is partially playable, a full or partial refund may apply, at management's discretion. For 11-a-side games, this generally means a full refund if <20 minutes were playable, and a 50% refund if the second half does not kick off. For all other games, this generally means a full refund if <1/3 of the game time was playable, and a 50% refund if <2/3 of the game time was playable.

How do I cancel my membership?

Membership

The preferred and most seamless way is to make online payment via credit or debit card, using our secure payment gateway. Note that a small transaction fee may apply to each purchase in some countries. As such, many users do prefer to purchase and maintain credits in their account, rather than paying for every game individually.

How do I make payment?

We recommend making payment online via credit or debit card, using our secure payment gateway. If required, you can pay other ways including bank transfer, "Paynow", and even by depositing cash via an ATM. Where these options are available, you can find them by going to Profile &gt; Top Up on the app for details.

Can I pay by bank transfer or by depositing cash?

No, we do not accept payment at the game itself.

Can I pay at the game itself?

Simply enter the promo code upon check out, and the corresponding discount will be applied automatically.

How do promo codes work?

Credits in your account are not refundable or redeemable for cash. You may, however, transfer credits to another user. Please contact us <a href="https://strangersoccer.com/contact-us" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;">here</a> for assistance with that.

Can I transfer credits from my account?

Payment is only due once a game is confirmed. At that point, the fee will be automatically deducted from your account. If you do not have enough credits available, you will be notified to make "RSVP" payment within 24 hours. Failure to make an RSVP payment before the deadline is frowned upon; you will be removed from the game and may be prevented from joining future games.

What is RSVP payment and how does it work?

An automated receipt will be sent via email once a game has been confirmed and payment has been made. For any other receipt related requests, kindly contact us <a href="https://strangersoccer.com/contact-us" target="_blank">here</a>.

I require a receipt for my company, how can I get one?

In these times of added operational and logistical costs, this fee contributes to our ability to keep games happening, hosts staffed, and the platform healthy.

Payment Matters

Please arrive 10 minutes ahead of game time, so that play can start on time.

What time should I arrive at the game?

Most games will have an Official Host wearing a red "Stranger Soccer Host" top. Check in with him or her! Then just warm up. The Official Host will gather players, explain rules, and start the game just as soon as enough players have arrived.

What will happen when I arrive?

Stranger Soccer recognizes the importance of great hosts to enhance the game experience. Hosts welcome players and facilitate the game, ensuring fair, fun, and balanced play throughout. Most games will have a Stranger Soccer "Official Host", identifiable by his or her red shirt. He or she may even join in if an extra player is needed. On rare occasions, where an Official Host was unavailable, a "Volunteer Host" will serve as the host; for more information, click <a href="https://strangersoccer.com/our_hosts.php" target="_blank">here</a>.

Who will be hosting my game?

If you have what it takes and are interested in becoming an Official Host, learn more <a href="https://strangersoccer.com/official-host" target="_blank">here</a>.

How can I become a Official Host?

You can rate your game on the App. Feedback is appreciated.

How can I provide feedback on my game experience?

Yes. When you rate your game, you will be given the opportunity to show your appreciation with a tip. This is entirely voluntary, and 100% will go to the Official Host.

My Host was great. Can I tip him or her?
