Unfortunately in most circumstances, it's not possible to cancel a refund. Once you take the final step in the refund process, which is to tap the final "Issue Refund" button, our system immediately begins processing to send the funds back to the customer's bank. 

 

At this point, I'd recommend contacting the customer to re-process the payment. If you sent the customer an email receipt, our support team can reach out to the customer on your behalf and request they contact you. If you'd like our support team to do that, please fill out this form.

How do I cancel a refund? 

 

I had a customer request a refund but refused to return the product. My employee initiated the refund without getting the product back. 

 

The refund has not reached the customer yet BUT if it does, we will be out the funds and product.

I processed a refund on accident. Is there a way to cancel the refund? Or do I need to wait the 7 day processing time and re charge the card?

So sorry for the delay in responding! Since most refunds are processed instantly, you will most likely have to re-charge the customer's card again. Having said that, please feel free to reach out directly to our Support Team, and then they can dig a bit deeper for you and verify this.

 

Just fill out this form: https://squareup.com/help/us/en/contact.
