How to make a full refund on Lightspeed Retail

Make a full refund to a customer once the original sale is completed. Points earned will be deducted from the customer's point balance.

  • In order for the points to be earned and refunded, the customer must be attached to the original sale with either a phone number or email address in his profile.
  • Go to the Sales section on the Lightspeed POS.
  • Go to Recent Activity and click on Sales history.
  • Search for the sale that needs to be refunded and click on it.
  • Click on Refund or exchange.
  • Select the Refund button next to the items on the sales screen. The items are going to be added to the refund tab.
  • Proceed with the payment and finish the transaction.
  • Points earned from the original sale will automatically be refunded and will be deducted from the customer’s balance.
    If redemption is applied to the original sale, points will be returned to the customer’s balance.
  • Go to the Transaction List in the Dashboard of the Kangaroo’s Business portal and select type Returns to see the refunds.

  • You will be able to see the refund of your choosing and its details by clicking on the eye button.
N.B: Once the transaction status is changed to a “Refund” the earning points will be deducted from the user balance again.

If you wish to refund a redemption the sale will have to refunded as well as it cannot be refunded alone.
