The Sales till

Refund a cash payment

Cobbtree marks the sale as refunded. Hand the cash back at the till.

Gift card refunds

If an appointment paid for with a gift card is refunded, that amount goes back onto the same gift card, not as cash (unless your policy or the law says otherwise). Only fully refund a gift card purchase before the card has been used.

Team Pay

Refunds after a pay run has been approved become adjustments in the next pay period.
