# Your payout if a guest cancels

Sometimes things don’t go according to plan and a guest needs to cancel. But what happens to your payout?

- **If your guest cancels**: If they cancel either before or after a trip, they’ll be automatically refunded according to your [cancellation policy](/content/help/article/475/index.html).
- **If your guest is owed a refund**: Their refund amount is deducted from your future payouts until the full amount is collected. If needed, you can give your guests an [additional refund](/content/help/article/165/index.html).

To find your updated payout amount, go to your  [Earnings dashboard](/content/users/transaction_history/index.html).
