You can issue a full or partial refund up to 180 days after you receive a payment as long as its status is "Completed," "Pending," or "Cleared." Refunds cannot be issued through the PayPal mobile app. Here's how to refund a payment: Click Activity at the top of the page. Select the payment you want to refund. Click Refund this payment. Under "Total Refund Amount," enter the amount you want to refund (you may have the option to refund a partial amount of the payment), and then click Issue Refund (you'll be directed to a page confirming that your refund has been sent). When you issue a full refund using the Issue a refund link, we credit your full variable transaction fee while the fixed portion of the fee is not refundable. If your customer originally paid using their American Express card, you were not charged a fixed fee and the entire variable transaction fee will not be refunded. When you issue a partial refund, we credit a percentage of the variable transaction fee, based on the amount of the refund. Note: If the transaction only allows for a full instead of partial refund, it's likely the buyer used a coupon or gift certificate. When coupons are applied to transactions, full refunds are the only option. If you'll only provide a partial refund for such transaction, you can initiate a new payment on the Send & Request page to send your buyer the refund amount that you've agreed upon. Hope that helps!
