Refunding iHeart Business Shop App Purchases

The iHeart Business Shop App can work with a number of different payment processors. Many of these processors handle refunding payments differently. As a result, if you're using a third-party processor like Stripe or PayPal, you'll need to refund orders directly from the dashboard of your payment processor. Click here to learn more. 

However, iHeart Business Payments was built from the ground up to integrate seamlessly with the Shop App and iHeart Business. If you're using iHeart Business Payments, just scroll down a couple lines and see how easy it is to issue refunds for any e-commerce purchase.

Refund a Purchase Made via a Third-Party Payment Processor

To refund purchases made via third-party payment processors, you will need to log in to your account on the payment processor's website and issue a refund from there.

If you issue a refund in PayPal or Stripe, your store will automatically sync up with refunded payments and will set the Refunded status for the respective order in your iHeart Business Shop App orders dashboard.
