Refunds

Issue a full or partial refund from the Payments dashboard. The whole transaction fee is returned to your club in proportion to the amount refunded.

You can make a full or partial refund from the Payments dashboard. When a payment is refunded, the whole transaction fee is returned to your club in proportion to the amount refunded.

For example, if a full refund is made, the entire fee is returned. If only 50% of the original payment is refunded, 50% of the fee is returned.

The whole fee, not part of it

Most platforms return only their own share of the fee, and many return nothing at all, because the card networks keep the cost of processing a payment whether or not it is later refunded. ClubPal absorbs that cost rather than passing it on, so refunding a payment in full leaves your club no worse off than if the payment had never been taken.

Refunding a Payment

Navigate to the payment dashboard at Admin > Payments > Dashboard. For the payment you want to refund, you will find the Issue Refund option.

You will then see a dialog where you can enter the amount to refund. It will default to the maximum amount you can refund. You also have the option to add a description or reason for the refund for your records.

Partial Refunds

If a partial refund was previously issued, the maximum amount you can refund will be up to the balance remaining of the initial payment.

Cancelled Sessions

When cancelling a session which has a fee, you can opt to issue refunds during the cancellation process. For more details, see the Cancelling Sessions section.
