Issuing Credit Card Refunds

Refunds can be issued from the Check Out Tools by auction assistants or higher-level members. If you are using Silent Auction Pro™ integrated credit card processing and the attendee paid by credit card, refunds can only be issued back to the same card that was used for payment.

To issue a refund for an over charge or an incorrectly entered bid on an auction item, first edit the bid amount before issuing the refund or the resulting invoice will show an amount due. See Enter and Edit Bid Results and Cash Pledges for more information.

If the refund is against a check or cash payment, see Managing Payments.
