FAQ​

Does a refund automatically cancel a subscription?

Do not assume it does. Review the subscription record separately and cancel or stop future charges when the buyer should no longer be billed.

Why did finance balance change after a refund?

Refunds can affect available or pending balance depending on payment status, settlement timing, and payout rules.

Should buyer access be removed after a refund?

Follow the seller's product policy. For digital products, support should confirm whether delivery or members access should be revoked.
