Refund Process

Check the Refund Eligibility

Once the customer’s identity is verified, you must check whether the refund is eligible based on company policy. Common factors to check include:

• Refund Window: Ensure the refund request is made within the allowed time frame (e.g., 30 days from purchase).
• Condition of the Product/Service: Verify if the product is returnable or the service is refundable, based on company policy.

If the refund is not eligible, kindly explain the reason to the customer and suggest possible alternatives (e.g., store credit, exchange, etc.).

Based on the payment method used by the customer, follow the corresponding steps to process the refund. The refund process must be done through the company’s internal system or payment platform.

It is important to set clear expectations with the customer about when they can expect to see the refund. Provide the following standard time frames, depending on the payment method:

• Credit Card Refunds: 5–10 business days
• PayPal Refunds: 3–5 business days
• Bank Transfer / Digital Wallets: 5–7 business days (or as per the specific service provider)

Always inform the customer that refund processing times may vary depending on their bank or payment provider.

Important Notes:

• No Phone Refund Processing: Refund requests can only be processed through chat or email. If a customer calls requesting a refund, kindly direct them to the appropriate chat or email channel.
• Refunds Are Not Immediate: Always set clear expectations with the customer regarding refund timelines, and avoid making promises about immediate returns.
