Refare vs Euclid: How the Two Flight Repricing Tools Compare (2026)
Refare negotiates refunds in place for a 25% fee with no account required. Euclid charges 20% and adds award tickets, hotels and a security audit. A sourced head-to-head.
Short answer: Refare is the lowest-friction option here, with no account or card needed to start, and it negotiates refunds without cancelling your ticket. Euclid charges less (20% versus 25%), adds award tickets and hotels, has passed a security audit, and focuses on the carriers that actually refund a drop. Here is the sourced comparison, current as of July 2026.
We build Euclid, so this is our argument, not a neutral verdict. First, a correction worth making, including to an older version of our own writing: Refare does not appear to cancel and rebook your ticket. It says it "negotiates with the airline to get you a refund" while leaving your booking intact, which is the safer approach, so credit where it is due.

What Refare does well
Refare has the lowest signup friction in the category: no account and no card to get going. It leaves your ticket intact and negotiates the refund with the airline, and it advertises the widest carrier list of anyone, including several international airlines. If you want to try a repricer with zero commitment, it is the easiest door to walk through.
Where Refare falls short against Euclid
- Its fee is 25%. Euclid is 20%.
- No hotels and no award repricing. Euclid does both.
- Its published site states no independent security audit. Euclid has passed Google's CASA Tier 2 assessment.
- Its long carrier list oversells what is actually recoverable (more on that below).
About that carrier list
A wide list of airlines sounds like an advantage, but it hides a catch. Outside the major US carriers, most airlines simply do not refund a post-purchase price drop at all, so advertising an airline is not the same as being able to recover money on it. Euclid deliberately covers the six US carriers whose fare rules genuinely return value on a drop, because a shorter list of airlines that actually pay out beats a long list that mostly cannot.
Fee and coverage
At 25%, Refare takes a quarter of every saving, versus a fifth at Euclid. On a $200 drop that is $50 to Refare against $40 to Euclid, and Euclid also covers award tickets and hotels that Refare does not touch. The lower fee and the wider real coverage both sit on Euclid's side.
Who should choose which
Choose Refare if you want the absolute lowest-friction start, you are fine paying 25%, and it advertises a carrier you cannot reach elsewhere.
Choose Euclid if you want a lower 20% fee, award and hotel coverage, an independent security audit, and a focus on the carriers that actually refund a drop.
