This article and video will guide you through refunding a service invoice. A service invoice releases session credits.
REFUND TIPS:
- After 120 days, you will need to reach out to ClubReady Support to issue a refund back to the member's card or refund the payment to cash, check, or credit.
- The card on file needs to be the same as when the invoice was created so you can refund back to the correct card on file. You will not be able to refund to a card that does not match the one used in the initial transaction.
- You cannot refund a check, cash or external payment to a credit card on file.
- Written Check means that staff will write a check for the client at the club. ClubReady does not offer automated check services.
- ACH payments have a 6 day waiting period before a refund can be issued. Since ACH transactions can normally take 3-5 business days to post on an account. ClubReady will not want a transaction to go through and then refund before it's been settled.
