Get in touch
Email support@buuq.co.ke. We reply within one working day, and usually the same day.
Writing from the email address on your BuuQ account helps us find you straight away. If your question is about a specific appointment, include the booking reference from the app — it is on the booking itself, under the date.
What to write to us about
- A booking — It was not accepted, the provider did not turn up, or you need to change or cancel it. support@buuq.co.ke
- A payment — You were charged twice, a payment failed, or you are owed a refund. Include the booking reference. support@buuq.co.ke
- Your account — You cannot sign in, need to change your email or phone, or want your data. privacy@buuq.co.ke
- A provider or a review — Report conduct, a listing that is not what it claims, or a review you believe is unfair. support@buuq.co.ke
- Something legal — Terms, privacy, copyright or a formal notice. legal@buuq.co.ke
Things you can do without us
- Cancel or reschedule — open the booking in the app. The cancellation window and any charge are shown before you confirm.
- Message your provider — every confirmed booking has a chat. For anything about the appointment itself, that is the fastest route.
- Delete your account or some of your data — see deleting your account. You do not have to close your account to remove individual photos or listings.
- Read the terms or privacy policy — both are on the legal page.
For beauty professionals
Questions about listings, verification, bookings you have received, or your earnings go to the same address — support@buuq.co.ke. Say that you are a provider and include your business name, and we will route it properly.
Common questions
How do I cancel or reschedule a booking?
Open the booking in the app. The cancellation window and any charge are shown before you confirm, so you always see the cost of changing your mind before you commit to it.
How do I pay?
By card through a secure checkout, or in cash to your provider at the appointment. Your card details never touch BuuQ — the payment page is handled by our payment processor. A cash booking is confirmed straight away and marked paid once your provider confirms they have received the money.
What happens if my provider does not turn up?
Raise a dispute from the booking in the app. We review the booking record, the chat and the payment, and mediate between you and the provider. Do this rather than simply cancelling, so there is a record.
How do refunds work?
A refund of a card payment is returned to the card you paid with; how long it takes is up to your bank and outside our control. Cash cannot be refunded by BuuQ, because we never received it — that is between you and your provider, though we will mediate.
Where do I find my booking reference?
On the booking itself in the app, under the date. Quoting it in an email is the quickest way for us to find exactly the appointment you mean.
How do I report a provider or a review?
Use the report option on the provider profile or the review. Reports go to our moderation queue and are looked at by a person, not a filter.
How do I block someone?
Open the chat and use the menu in the top right, or the menu on a provider profile, and choose Block. Blocking stops messages and new bookings in both directions and hides their listings from you. They are not told. Manage or lift a block from Account → Blocked Accounts. Blocking is separate from reporting — report anything a moderator should see.
How do I delete my account?
In the app, go to Account → Delete Account. It lists what is erased and what we must keep, asks you to type DELETE, and takes effect immediately — there is no waiting period and it cannot be undone. If you cannot open the app, email privacy@buuq.co.ke from the address on your account with "Delete my account" as the subject; we acknowledge within 7 days and complete within 30. You do not need to close your account to remove individual photos or listings.
