In addition to the regular order processing facilities, Secure Trading allows to void and refund orders in full or partially and check the callback details of the orders paid with this payment method directly in the X-Cart Admin area.

Void and Refund

A store admin can void an order paid with Secure Trading payments only within the same day the order was placed. At 00:00 AM (UTC) next day to the order was paid, Secure Trading settles transactions, and void operations become unavailable. A store admin can only refund an order after the settlement (this is usually the following day).

  • To void an order, a store admin should open the order details page and click on the Void button in the blue section:

  • To refund an order, a store admin should open the order details page and click on the Refund button in the blue section:

A store admin can refund a full order amount or do a partial refund.

For a partial refund, the administrator should specify the required sum in a field near the Refund button (by default, it shows the maximum available amount for a refund that equals the order total) and click Refund. As a result, the store admin will see the refunded amount and the residual amount in the field near the Refund button.

Callback Details

Secure Trading payment solution also makes it possible to check the callback details on the order processing in the order history.

To see it, a store admin should click the View order history link.

Hitting the Plus (+) button opposite an operation allows expanding the details of a callback.

Here a store admin can get the info about a credit card used to pay the order, Secure Trading transaction reference, and settle status.
