Refund Timing

Refunds are processed from storekit once confirmed, but they may not appear in the customer’s account immediately. Most refunds take 3–5 business days to clear, depending on the customer’s bank.

How Refunds Affect Payouts

When a refund is processed, the refunded amount is deducted from the funds available for payout. If there is enough available balance, the refund is deducted from that balance. If the original payment has already been paid out, or there is not enough available balance, the refund may be deducted from a future payout instead.

How Refunds Appear in Reports

Refunds are shown in your storekit reports so you can track money returned to customers and reconcile your payouts. Use your reports to check:
  • Which orders were refunded
  • Whether the refund was full or partial
  • The refund amount
  • The date the refund was processed
  • How the refund affected payout totals
Refunds cannot be reversed once processed. Check the payment, refund amount, and selected items carefully before confirming the refund.
Refunds usually take 3–5 business days to appear in the customer’s account, depending on their bank.
If a refund is issued after the original payment has already been paid out, the refunded amount may be deducted from a future payout.

Troubleshooting

The customer has not received their refund

Refunds can take 3–5 business days to appear in the customer’s account. If the refund has already been processed in storekit, ask the customer to allow this time for their bank to return the funds.

My payout is lower than expected

Check whether any refunds, fees, or adjustments were deducted from the payout. Refunds processed before payout can reduce the amount paid out to your bank account.

A refund was issued after the payout

If the original payment has already been paid out, the refund may be deducted from a future payout. Check your reports to confirm when the refund was processed and how it affected later payout totals.

I only need to refund one item

Open the refund window and select the specific item you want to refund. You can also adjust the quantity if the customer ordered more than one of the same item.
