💡 Tip: If the payment hasn’t settled yet and you’re refunding all of it, the dialog suggests Void instead. Voiding returns the money at once and avoids refund fees.

✅ What you’ll see: The refund receipt opens, and the row shows REFUNDED or PARTIALLY REFUNDED with the amount in the Refunded column.

⚠️ Note: Void payment is available only for card payments through Fortis and Shift4, on the day of the payment. Only a payment that hasn’t settled can be voided. If the gateway says it has settled, or your property uses another gateway, refund it instead.
