Refund Options

Our flexible Refund options help you accommodate the diverse needs and preferences of your Customers.

In FunJoin, there are different types of Refunds. You can offer a Full Refund for the entire amount paid by the Customer, or you can offer a custom Partial Refund amount.

You can grant a Refund and Keep the Associated Reservations or you can grant a Refund and Cancel the Associated Reservations.

So there are plenty of options to choose from. Simply put, FunJoin can handle any type of Refund.

Strong Recommendation:

We strongly recommend you grant and record all your Refunds in the FunJoin Admin Panel. This will ensure accurate financial reports and transaction records.

Refunds with Different Payment Methods

If Payment was collected through Stripe, granting a refund in FunJoin will automatically execute a refund in Stripe. Stripe will send the funds back to the Customer. Please note it may take a few days for the funds to settle.

If the Payment was not collected through Stripe (Payment Collected Externally), you should still record the Refund through the FunJoin Admin Panel. This will ensure accurate Reports, Ledgers, and Transaction Histories. If Payment was Collected Externally, you need to correctly label the Payment in the Delete/Refund Modal Window.

Getting to Know Associated Reservations

Orders can be linked or associated with Reservations (Scheduled Sessions and Programs).

If the Order is from the Schedule & Pay Flow, there is always an Associated Reservation.

If the Order is from the Buy & Credits and Redeem Flow, and the Credit has been redeemed to Schedule a Session or Program, there is an Associated Reservation.

Reminder:

Granting a Refund does not automatically Cancel or Change the Associated Reservation.

In FunJoin, the “Cancel Reservation” and “Grant Refund” functionalities are intentionally separated. This is to protect the integrity of the Schedules and avoid unintentional Cancellations. Our step-by-step approach ensures that the Reservation is not deleted accidentally.
