Important Notes & Refund FAQs
Is there a fee to process a refund?
Yes. Each refund processed through Stripe in RentRedi has a $1 convenience fee.
How far back can I refund a payment?
Payments can be refunded up to 180 days from the original transaction date. After 180 days, refunds can no longer be processed through the ProPay Dashboard.
What happens if the tenant's bank account is closed?
If a refund is sent to a closed bank account, the tenant will need to contact their bank directly to confirm where the funds were routed.
Once the refund is processed, the funds are sent back to the original payment method. If that account is closed, the bank may place them in a general holding account based on their internal process.
RentRedi cannot determine where the bank places funds after they are sent to a closed account. The tenant should contact their bank with the refund amount, date, and any available transaction details so the bank can help locate the funds.
Is there a limit on refund amounts?
Yes. Refunds are limited to $3,000 per transaction. If you need to refund more than $3,000, please contact RentRedi's Chat Support for assistance.
Why don't I see a refund button for a payment?
If you don't see a Refund button after selecting the payment, the payment was likely processed through ProPay rather than Stripe.
No worries! You can follow the steps in this help article to refund the tenant's payment through ProPay.
