How to void or refund a transaction on Payanywhere
Void
A void cancels a sale that has been completed, but hasn’t yet been processed for payment. It's best to process a void on the same day before your account batches out. However, if you have a sale time-stamped after you batch out, you can void it before you batch out the following day.
To void a transaction:
- Go to “transactions”.
- Search, then select the transaction you’d like to void.
- Tap "void" and "confirm" that you would like to void the transaction.
- Send your customer an optional receipt, if necessary.
Refund
When a transaction has already been processed, and the payment has been completed, refunds come into play. In this case, the cardholder would receive a credit back to their bank account. It's important to note that the refund amount should be greater than $0.00, but can’t exceed the total transaction amount.
To refund a transaction:
- Head to “transactions”.
- Search and select the transaction you would like to refund and tap "refund."
- If you're returning entire item costs, select the item counters to indicate how many of the items are being returned.
- If the total needs to be adjusted further for any reason, enter it in the “additional custom amount” field.
- Tap "refund" to complete.
- Send your customer an optional receipt, if necessary.
