Partial Approval Refund

A Partial Approval Purchase transaction can be refunded.

Note: A Refund transaction may be processed for individual portions within the overall Partial Approval Purchase transaction. For example, if the overall transaction was $57.75 and two pre-paid credit cards were used for $25 each, and a debit card was used for the remaining $7.75, but the customer only wanted one of the pre-paid credit cards refunded, you can process the Refund just on that one card using the Sequence Number or Card Number. See Partial Approval Transaction Scenarios for more information.

Note: If you wish to remove the transaction entirely because it was incorrectly entered, perform a Partial Approval Correction (Void).

To process a Refund on a Partial Approval Purchase:

1.       On the applications menu, select DEBIT & CREDIT.

4.       Key in the 6-digit Appr Code printed on the original receipt and press the green key (see Finding Sequence and Orig Auth Numbers).

Note: If you do not have the Appr Code, press the green key to bypass the prompt.

 The "Swipe, Tap, or Insert Card:" prompt appears.

5.       Swipe, tap or insert the card. For more information, refer to Card Entry Options.
