6. In your timeline, you’ll see “Successfully refunded” payment once completed.

Note: Refunds take 5-10 days to appear on a customer’s statement.

If you see “Partial refund” in gray next to the refund amount, this is the refunded amount less transaction costs.

2. Click the Refund Offline button at the bottom-right of the page.

Whatever you type in the Credit Memo Comments box will be emailed to the customer. This is a great place to add the Transaction ID, for example. Select the checkbox next to Append Comments to have additional comments emailed to the customer.
