How to perform a refund

You can refund an EFTPOS transaction back to a debit or credit card

IMPORTANT: Before you can process refunds, you need a refund facility set up with your merchant acquiring bank. You also need a manager or cashier passcode. To set up, confirm, or change your merchant passcode, you must be a listed authority on your Eftpos NZ account. If your terminal is connected to the Paymark network, you need a refund card and PIN issued by Paymark. Refund amounts are capped by user role. Read about manager and cashier refund limits
