When will people receive their credit/debit card refunds?
People will see refunds back to their card accounts within 5-10 business days.
How are refunds funded? (Where does the money come from?)
The refunds you process will be deducted from your Account Balance for the week. This includes any incoming money from member or patron orders. You can always check your current Account Balance by visiting the Bank Reconciliation report page.
If the amount of a refund exceeds your current account balance, we may debit your bank account within 1-2 business days for the funds to cover the refund. For more information, check out our Terms of Service.
Are people notified when a refund has been processed?
Yes - if the original payment was an "online payment" processed through Chorus Connection with a credit/debit card. People will receive an email refund notification.
