There may be times when you need to refund a transaction to a customer. Like trading in the high street, you get into an agreement every time you make a sale between you and the shopper. Generally, if a shopper agrees to purchase an item for you, they do so assuming that the product is not defective.

Refund Policy

As part of Worldpay's terms of engagement, every business should have a return policy published on their website and have procedures in place to handle refunds, according to Worldpay's website rules.

Full and Partial Refunds

You can make full or partial refunds on the Payment and Order Details pop-up box that you'll find on the Merchant's Interface. You will use the Refund Button to make your refund. Partial refunds are made if a customer returns part of the original order. You may make more than one partial refund up to the value of the original order.

When Can a Refund Be Made?

The system will show a Refund button for credit and debit card payments with a “Captured or Settled” status. The Refund button will not show if the payment status only shows as “Authorised”. In this case, you should cancel the transaction. Please refer to guidelines on how to Cancel a Payment.

When you request a Refund, the Payment Service carries out various checks to ensure that the financial institution accepts the refund terms and that you have sufficient funds to make the payment. If everything is okay, the refund request is scheduled and sent to the right financial institution.

Once the payment is processed, the customer will receive the refund amount you authorised. You should keep in mind that depending on the acquirer, it may take up to 6 weeks for the refund to be processed. When attempting to make a refund, you may receive any of the following messages:

You do not have sufficient funds to complete the refund
Try to refund more than the CAPTURED value

Refund Payment Statuses

There are two primary payment statuses displayed on the Merchant Interface:

Sent for refund - This means that the Payment Service has authorised the financial institution to refund the money back to the customer.
Refunded -. This means that the financial institution has sent back an acknowledgement to the Payment Service that they have received the refund order from Worldpay to give money back to the shopper. Therefore, the shopper is scheduled to receive or has already received the refunded amount on the relevant account.

If you have set up your account to receive specific updates, you and the shopper will get an email confirming that a refund request was made for a certain amount and the amount is being processed to be returned to the shopper.
