Cancel ChowNow: Easy Method

What is ChowNow

Overview

ChowNow is an online ordering and restaurant technology provider that offers branded ordering, mobile apps, and management tools for restaurants.

The service includes subscription plans, hardware for in-venue use, and support for marketing and order management.

Who uses ChowNow

ChowNow is used by restaurant partners who want direct online ordering and by consumers who place orders through restaurant-branded apps or websites.

Cancellation rules differ for restaurant partners (web/restaurant-side) versus consumers using app stores or the diner experience.

How to cancel ChowNow

Restaurant partner cancellation steps

• Submit the official cancellation form to ChowNow (restaurant-side process).
• Schedule and complete a consultation call with your Restaurant Success Manager - this call is required to process cancellation.
• After the consultation and form are completed, the 30-day cancellation period begins.

Consumer (diner) cancellation notes

• App-store users cannot cancel a restaurant subscription via Apple App Store or Google Play; restaurant-side cancellation controls ordering availability.
• If you are a diner seeking refunds for an order, follow the order-dispute steps in ChowNow's Terms of Service (refund requests within 7 days for orders).

What happens when you cancel

Service access and timing

Once cancellation is processed after the required consultation, a 30-day cancellation policy begins during which service continues unless turned off immediately.

Service may be deactivated immediately at ChowNow's discretion, but partners should confirm timing with their Restaurant Success Manager.

Apps, data and renewals

After account cancellation, ChowNow will remove restaurant mobile apps from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store in approximately 2 - 3 weeks.

Renewals and billing: there are no prorated refunds for annual or two‑year subscriptions; billing follows the subscription terms until the end of the billing cycle or as specified in the cancellation process.

Will I get a refund?

Standard refund policy

ChowNow’s stated policy is that there are no refunds on service or product fees for subscriptions.

Upon cancellation, service typically remains until the end of the billing cycle; partners should not expect prorated refunds for unused time on annual or multi-year plans.

Exceptions and hardware returns

• Dead On Arrival (DOA) or defective hardware may be returned unopened within 14 calendar days after an RMA is issued for inspection and possible refund.
• All hardware must be returned within 30 days of cancellation; failure to return equipment within 30 days may result in being charged the full cost of the hardware.
• Order-level refunds for diners: refunds on orders may be processed if requested within 7 days and not deemed fraudulent; marketplace fees rules apply to partial vs full refunds.

ChowNow plans and pricing

Available plans (summary)

Below are representative plans and approximate Euro-equivalent pricing based on available data; regional pricing may vary.

Notes on pricing accuracy

Exact pricing for Nigeria is not publicly available. Figures are approximations converted from USD to EUR and may differ due to taxes, App Store adjustments, or local pricing.

Your consumer rights in Nigeria

General legal context

ChowNow’s terms do not explicitly reference Nigerian statutory consumer withdrawal rights; their policy relies on internal rules rather than a universal 14‑day right.

If Nigerian law provides mandatory consumer protections, those statutory rights may override contractual terms in ChowNow's policies.

Practical advice for Nigerian users

• Consult local consumer protection authorities or a legal advisor if you believe statutory rights apply and ChowNow’s terms conflict with Nigerian law.
• Document communications, order receipts, and dates when requesting refunds or disputing charges; this evidence helps formal complaints or legal claims.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Some customers and restaurant users praise ChowNow for a straightforward ordering interface and ease of use for branded ordering experiences.

Positive reviews often highlight the ordering UX and convenience of having a restaurant-branded app.

Negative feedback and common complaints

Numerous public reviews report delivery failures, late or cold food, and difficulties obtaining refunds for orders.

Restaurant partners have also reported challenges with customer service responsiveness, unexpected charges, and difficulty cancelling service without follow-up.

Documentation checklist

What to prepare before cancelling

• Completed cancellation form (as required by ChowNow).
• Contact details and name of your Restaurant Success Manager, plus the scheduled consultation call confirmation.
• Proof of subscription billing cycles, invoices, and contract terms to confirm billing dates.

Hardware and refund documentation

• Serial numbers and photos of any hardware to return; keep original packaging if possible.
• RMA paperwork for defective hardware and any return tracking numbers.
• Receipts or order confirmations for diner refunds and correspondence with support.

Common mistakes

Failing to complete the required steps

Example: assuming an email or app-store action cancels a restaurant account. Restaurant partners must submit the cancellation form and complete the consultation call.

Not completing both steps can delay cancellation and may trigger further billing or service continuation.

Missing hardware return deadlines

Example: not returning equipment within 30 days. ChowNow may charge the full cost of unreturned hardware, so arrange returns and get proof of shipment.

Also watch DOA return windows - returns for defective hardware often require an RMA and a 14-day return window after RMA issuance.
