Refund to Discount Code

Overview


Refund to Discount code allows merchants to offer refunds as a code, helping retain revenue while providing customers with a discount code for future purchases.


How to enable Refund to Store Credit Resolution?

Step 1: Go to Settings > Resolution


  1. Enable “Refund to Discount code” toggle
  2. Add description text (optional)




Step 2: Set up settings for Discount code


  1. Set up Prefix to generate the random codes => For example: REFUND (Prefix) + "random number" = REFUND2026
  2. Set up Value (Percentage) of Discount code
  3. Set Expiration Date to encourage shoppers use the codes as soon as possible (optional)
  4. Enable noitification of discount to send the information of discount code to shoppers (optional)


The discount code value is calculated based on the return credit. For example, if you set the discount value to 50% and the return credit is $200, the customer will receive a discount code worth $100 for future purchases.


Step 3: Save changes > Preview on Return Page
