How to Issue a Credit Card Refund


Credit card transactions cannot be edited or deleted. If you need to correct a payment, the only option is to issue a refund.



Important Notes

  • Credit payments are non-editable once submitted.
  • Only cash or check payments can be edited or deleted.
  • You can issue full or partial refunds as needed.

Step 1: Locate the Original Charge

  1. Open the customer’s Work Order or Invoice.
  2. Scroll to the Payments panel.
  3. Identify the line item for the credit card charge you want to refund.

Step 2: Open the Refund Panel

  1. On the far-right side of the payment line, click the Actions button.
  2. Choose Refund from the dropdown menu.

Step 3: Enter Refund Amount

  1. A refund panel will appear at the bottom of the Payments section.
  2. Enter the amount you want to refund (e.g., $10).
  3. Click Submit Refund.

Step 4: Confirm Refund Success

  • A confirmation message will appear if the refund succeeded.
  • A new line item will be added showing a refund with the amount, type, and timestamp.
  • Once refunded, no further actions are available for that refund line.

Step 5: Review Refund in Stripe Dashboard (Optional)

  1. Go to My ProfileAccount BillingOpen Stripe Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to the Transactions section.
  3. You’ll see the partial or full refund logged in Stripe.

Additional Notes

  • Refunds may take 2–5 business days to return to the customer’s account.
  • If you accidentally refund the wrong amount, issue another charge or an additional refund as needed.
  • Refunds are tied to the original payment ID and are processed securely through Stripe.
