Refund in Customer Area <\/h5>

You can also refund payments in your Customer Area. For more information, refer to Manage payments<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n

To return funds to your shopper, you can refund the shopper's payment after it has been captured<\/a>. For example: if a shopper returns an item they purchased, you refund their payment.<\/p>\n

When you make a refund request, Adyen attempts to authorize the refund<\/a> and transfers the funds to the shopper's account. It can take up to 40 business days before the funds are returned to the shopper's account, depending on the payment method.<\/p>\n
