TUTORIAL: How to Refund A Sale

This tutorial will cover basic sale maintenance and will include issuing refunds and instructions on stopping/starting recurring orders. This tutorial is based on the new vendor administration area which is accessible here. Orders can either be canceled or refunded based on the status they are in. For more information on order status please visit the article “What is Order Status”.

If an order or recurring installment is in approved status it can still be canceled without the customer being charged or 2Checkout fees applied to the suppliers account. If an order is in pending or deposited status a total or partial refund can be issued to the customer. If the order was passed in using our plug and play parameters individual products and shipping charges can also be refunded by using our line item refund feature.

Shipping PayPal Funded 2CO Orders

Due to popular demand, PayPal funded 2CO orders will now appear in our suppliers’ Mark Shipped interface.

This means you may see previously fulfilled orders here, so please mark them as shipped as you would with any other order. This will not re-bill previously fulfilled orders, but will remove them from the interface.

Please treat any new PayPal funded 2CO orders appearing in the Mark Shipped interface as you would any other order.

Refund / Chargeback Statistics

2Checkout.com strives to provide vendors with detailed stat tracking to assist in monitoring the financial history of their accounts.

A key aspect of this information is active tracking of refund and bank dispute amounts and percentages. These percentages play a key role in 2Checkout account evaluations, as well as determining the level of the rolling reserve that is applied to accounts.

2Checkout maintains the following criteria for acceptable refund and bank dispute percentages:

  • Refund amounts should not exceed our acceptable limit of 10%.
  • Bank Assisted dispute levels should not exceed our acceptable limit of 1%.

Percentages above these levels may lead to reserve increases, and can be detrimental to the overall profitability of your company.

Refunds and Bank Assisted Disputes that are deemed fraud related are weighted differently than those issued for service related issues, yet these stats should be monitored as well.

2Checkout encourages all vendors stay current on their account statistics and are proactive in using these tools to ensure the overall health and good standing of their accounts.

Partial Refunds and Echecks

If a supplier needs to issue a partial refund on an order that was placed using an online check they should be sure to wait until the sale has reached deposited status before doing so. This will ensure that the order deposits correctly and the refund is issued correctly.

How does the customer make the payment?

Customers using our services to place their order will input their billing information on our secure payment page, all orders must be placed online by the customer. 2Checkout accepts customer orders via online checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, Diners Club, JCB and debit cards with the Visa and MasterCard logo.  Customers may also elect to use the PayPal, PayPal Pay Later, or FX Source(ACH) payment options. Please note: The online check, PayPal, PayPal Pay Later and FX Source options will not be available in all currencies.  You can place a demo order using our services by visiting the following address:

http://www.acmeonlinebooks.com/

How do I fill orders?

As soon as customers place an order, you will receive detailed order information via email from 2CheckOut so you can fill the order. Detailed records of each transaction are also stored on our servers and can be accessed by you using our admin screens.

Why am I not receiving sales emails?

The email notifications are Auto Sent. There has been no trouble with our Auto Sender. Unfortunately, many SMTP servers have anti-Spam filters on them that search out certain words (Sale, Selling, Sold, !!) and then deem that mail as Spam.

If you log into your account home page and select the ‘Create’ option next to “Add Usernames” under the ‘Helpful Links’ menu, you can create a new user that can also receive your confirmation emails. You will notice that each user has an “Access” and “Email” column, you will simply need to check the boxes in the “Email” column for the emails that you want the new user to receive. Please be certain the email address on the new username is from a different domain that that on the original username. If one email address receives the confirmation and the other doesn’t that will confirm that it is a problem with the email account.

To create a new username in the new vendors area you will first need to login to your account using the following link. https://www.2checkout.com/va/ After you have logged in you will need to click the Account tab on the home page and then click the User Management sub-tab on the Account page. On the User Management page, click the Create Username link on the right side of the page. You will then fill in all the fields on the Create Username page and click the Create Username button at the bottom of the page. After you have created the new username, you will be directed to the Edit User page and you will be able to select the users access level and the email subscriptions for the new user.

Do customers automatically receive a message confirming that an order was shipped?

Yes. When you indicate an order has been shipped in the admin area, the buyer is automatically notified. This option can be turned off if it is not needed.
