Void or Cancel a Payment

If the transaction status is Approved, follow the same steps to void or cancel the payment.

Refund-Opt-2

Tip: Void transactions differ from Refunds.

  • A Void transaction is a transaction that is canceled before the money is transferred from the customer's debit or credit card company to the merchant.
  • A Refund is issued after a transaction has been settled and the customer has paid for the good or service.

Step 3: Enter the Refund Amount

  1. Once the refund icon is selected, a popup will appear with the refund amount.
    • By default, the entire original payment amount will populate in the field. Enter an amount less than the original transaction to issue a partial refund.
  2. Click Refund to complete the process. 

Refund-Amt

Once a refund is submitted, a corresponding refund transaction with a unique Transaction ID (TXN ID) and a refund profile page will be created along with the payment's original profile.

Click on the Related Transactions tab on the refund's profile page to view the payment’s original profile.
