If I have to refund an order, do I have to create a brand new order?

Situation: A server at our restaurant runs a customer's card and the customer realizes they used the wrong card. If the server issues a refund for that order, do they have to make an ENTIRE new order to re-ring the transaction or is there a way around that? Or is there a way to void the card instead of issuing a refund?

 

Thank you!

Hi @teamslipp. Thanks for taking the time to share your question! While I can definitely see how this would be a useful feature, your instincts were correct here. We don't currently offer the ability to void a charged card and charge a new one. You would need to create a new transaction, or run another transaction using a custom amount (as opposed to adding all the items again). I'll be sure to pass this suggestion along to our product liaison team.
