Refund Management

Everything you need to know about issuing a refund to your customers.


You can issue full refunds in your partner dashboard. Below, we’ve outlined the steps to initiate a full refund, and key details on how refunds are processed.

Please note that all refunds take 3 - 5 business days to process. Credit card fees for refunded transactions are the responsibility of the partner, and will be added to the refund amount. You can reach out to customersuccess@alternativepayments.io with any questions.
