Issue a refund to my customer

You can refund or void a charge processed through GoDaddy Payments in the Dashboard on your web browser or your GoDaddy smart terminal. All transactions can either be partially or fully refunded.

Refunds can take around 5-7 business days to process and appear on the customer’s card. If your customer has not received a refund within that timeframe, we recommend they contact their credit card company.

Notes:
  • There are no processing fees when issuing refunds; however, the processing fee for the initial transaction will not be refunded. (Applicable surcharge fees are refunded to your customer.) In the event of an account closure due to an audit/transaction, GoDaddy will collect the cost of the initial processing fee, regardless of whether the funds are on hold or have settled into your business's bank account.
  • Orders can only be refunded once. If you process a partial refund for an order and then need to refund an additional amount or item for the same order, please contact us for assistance. Our GoDaddy Guides are here to help.

  2. In the left-nav menu, select Transactions.
  3. Locate the transaction you’d like to refund and select alt name for the image More, then select Void or Refund.
