How to issue a refund

Refund a full or partial amount on a completed order without leaving LunixPOS.

3 min read

LunixPOS handles refunds directly from the original order. You pick the refund amount, the method to send the money back through, and a reason — no need to call your processor.

  1. 1

    Find the order

    Go to Orders → All orders. Search by order number, customer name, phone, or IMEI to locate the original sale.

  2. 2

    Open the order and click Refund

    On the order detail page, click the Refund action. You land on the dedicated refund page, titled "Refund Order #[order number]".

  3. 3

    Enter the refund amount

    Type the amount in the Refund Amount field. LunixPOS shows you the maximum refundable below — you cannot exceed it.

  4. 4

    Pick a refund method

    Tap one of the method cards. Active methods include Cash, Card Terminal, manual Debit/Credit Card, and any app methods you have enabled (Zelle, PayPal, Cash App, Affirm, E-Transfer). Custom methods you created also show here.

  5. 5

    Add an internal reason

    Type a short reason for the refund. This is staff-only — customers never see it. It appears in your audit log and reports.

  6. 6

    Confirm the refund

    Click the Refund [amount] button. The funds reverse on the original card automatically (for card refunds), the cash drawer pops on a cash refund, and the order detail shows the refund record on the timeline.
