Refunds

Refund a payment in full or in part. Refunds go back to the original payment method and usually take 5–10 business days to appear.

Create a refund

curl https://api.ledgerline.dev/v2/refunds \
  -u "sk_test_51Kx…:" \
  -d payment_intent=pi_3Mtw… \
  -d amount=1000

const refund = await ledgerline.refunds.create({
  payment_intent: 'pi_3Mtw…',
  amount: 1000,
});

Status	Meaning
`pending`	The refund has been submitted to the network.
`succeeded`	The funds have been returned.
`failed`	The refund couldn't be processed; the funds return to your balance.
`canceled`	You cancelled the refund before it was submitted.

You can't refund more than the original charge, and some payment methods (vouchers) can't be refunded at all.
