Refunds

Occasionally, a refund may remain on hold (status 793) due to insufficient balance. Here's how to manage these refunds:

  1. Increase balance: Go to Financial > Accounts and statements > Actions > Raise balance. Alternatively, wait for new incoming payments to increase the balance.
  2. Execute refund: Navigate to Execute > Refunds > Rejected refunds and payment orders > Select refund(s) > Resettle selection.

Note

If a refund is on hold, creating a new refund for the same transaction is not possible to prevent duplicate refunds.

A refund can also be rejected (status 690) or failed (status 490) for reasons such as:

  • The refund amount exceeds the original transaction amount.
  • An attempt to create a new refund while one is on hold leads to immediate rejection if the total exceeds the original amount.

For more information on the rejection reason, check the Payment attempts tab of the refund transaction.
