💳Store Credit

Overview

Synctrack Returns & Exchanges offers merchants the option to provide their customers refunds in the form of store credits as a way to retain revenue while allowing customers to spend their refund amount on other items from the store catalog. Activating the option to issue refunds to store credits for customers on the returns portal is pretty straightforward. It can be done under Settings > Refund resolutions in Synctrack Returns & Exchanges admin.

Enable Refund to Store Credit

1. Go to Refund Resolutions under Settings in the Synctrack Returns & Exchanges app.

2. Shift the toggle to the right for Refund to Store Credit and add a small preview text (Description) to give extra information on the resolution method.

3. The customers can be encouraged to choose this method by being added a bonus credit and the price will be refunded by the gift card to use the next order. If you don't want to use this method, you can disable or fill in the bonus credit equal to 0.

4. Click Save
