How to request a refund through order protection

Learn how to submit a refund request through Order Protection if you can't attend your event for a covered reason.

Updated this week

If you purchased Order Protection at checkout and your situation qualifies under the policy's terms, you can request a refund directly through Teak, Tixr's trusted third-party partner.

Requesting your refund

  1. Locate the email titled "Refund Protection Order Confirmation & Important Information." You'll receive this shortly after your Tixr order confirmation. This email contains your unique refund request link.

  2. Click Request a Refund in the email to access Teak's refund request portal.

  3. Complete the refund request by following the prompts to:

    • Select your order

    • Enter details about why you can't attend

    • Upload any required documentation (if applicable)

    • Review, sign, and submit your request

Important: You must submit your request within the time window stated in your policy. Requests submitted after your coverage period ends will be denied.

Finding your order protection email

If you don't see your Refund Protection Order Confirmation & Important Information email:

  • Search your inbox for "Refund Protection Order Confirmation"

  • Check your spam, junk, or promotions folders

  • Look for emails sent from [email protected]

If you still can’t find it, follow the steps in What to Do If You’ve Lost Your Order Protection Email.

    Covered reasons vary by policy but typically include illness, injury, work conflicts, and travel disruptions. Review the full terms in your Order Protection confirmation email or policy documentation to confirm your situation qualifies.

  2. How long do I have to submit a refund request?

    The submission deadline is specified in your Order Protection policy. This window typically begins at the time of purchase and ends before or on the event date. Check your policy confirmation email for your specific coverage period.

  5. How long does it take to process my refund request?

    Processing times vary based on the complexity of your request and documentation provided. Teak will review your submission and notify you of their decision via email. Check your policy terms for estimated response timeframes.

  6. What happens if my refund request is denied?

    If your request is denied, you'll receive an email from Teak explaining the reason. Common denial reasons include submitting after the coverage period, choosing a reason not covered by the policy, or incomplete documentation.

    First, check your spam and promotions folders for emails from [email protected]. If you still can't find it, see What to Do If You've Lost Your Order Protection Email for steps to retrieve your refund request link.
