While we always hope clients will be happy with a purchase, we understand that there are times when issuing refunds is necessary. There are a few steps to this process:
- In Partner Center, go to Billing > Payments and select the payment you’re trying to refund. On the kebab menu to the right, you will see a refund option.
- Enter the amount you would like to refund (you can refund the full payment or partial refund).
- Select the reason for the refund. The selected reason is for your records only and it is not shared with your client.
- Finally, click the Refund button at the bottom right to issue the refund.
Your client will receive an email from you, informing them that a refund has been initiated and the payment will hit their account within 5-10 days.

Note: Requests for refunds to your clients do not guarantee the deactivation of any products. Please ensure that you deactivate the product or products on the account to prevent any additional charges. |

How much can I refund?

I have already received the payout in my bank account, can I issue a refund?
- Yes, you can issue refunds even when you don’t currently have funds on the platform. We allow you to issue refunds up to a Vendasta payment balance of - $1000. This means that the negative balance will be recovered from your next payment.

Is there a fee for issuing refunds to my clients?
- No, there is NO fee for issuing refunds to your customers on the Vendasta platform. However, the transaction fees paid as part of the original payment will not be refunded.
Will the email notification to the client be white-labeled?
- Yes, the email notification to your client informing them that a refund has been issued is white-labeled and will carry your own branding. Here is a sample:
