On the Premium and Professional packages you have the option to refund a booking in full but retain an admin fee.

The feature means you can retain a % or a flat amount for the work involved in facilitating a refund of a booking.

The small monthly fee for the packages will soon be covered by the payments retained, and you will also have access to all the other benefits of these 2 packages!

As a Premium or Professional package user already, these are the steps you need to take to retain a fee:

  • Locate the booking you want to refund

  • Use either the 3 dots to the right of the booking or select Full Refund at the top of the page when in the booking

  • You will be given 3 choices:

    • Cancel (if you want to abort the process)

    • Custom refund (retain a fee)

    • Full refund (proceed to refund in full with no fee retained)

  • Select Custom refund

  • Professional package users can refund to Credit or Stripe:

  • On the Refund Booking screen you input the details of what % or what flat amount you want to refund:

  • You can manually select a % or use one of the preset loaded ones

  • OR you can input the exact amount you want to be refunded

  • The total amount of the booking shows in the top right of this box to help you

  • You can also add an internal note to the refund

  • Once happy with the details confirm by clicking the Refund button

  • The booking will now show as refunded and the Admin fee is detailed on the summary:

  • On the Event Summary report the Items will also show as refunded but the retained fee will be detailed in the Income section:

  • And also on the HM transactions report:
