How to process a refund

Updated over a week ago

Overview

A charge can be partially or fully refunded up to 180 days after the original transaction date.

In order to process a refund within CPACharge, click on the Refund button in the left menu. Search for the transaction using either the client's name, invoice number, or date range. If the transaction exceeds 180 days, the system will not allow an online refund. Instead, you must issue an offline refund by returning the funds using a check.

โ€‹
All transactions that meet the search criteria will be returned. Click on the transaction you would like to refund.

โ€‹Once you type in the dollar amount and an applicable reference or description simply click the Submit Refund button.

Please Note: If it has been more than 180 days or If you need to issue a refund to a different card not associated with the original transaction, please contact support.

If the refund involves an expired card, the funds are usually routed to the bank account linked with that card. However, if the client has a new bank account or does not claim the funds, the refund may be returned to your business, requiring alternative payment methods such as a check.
