Congratulations on migrating your store from Lightspeed to Shopify! To process a refund for an item purchased through Lightspeed via Shopify, you’ll need to follow these steps:
-
Confirm Refund Policy: Ensure that the customer’s purchase falls within your store’s refund policy window. Review your store’s refund policy to determine if the customer is eligible for a refund.
-
Verify Payment: Double-check that the customer’s payment was successfully transferred to Shopify during the migration. If the payment was processed through Lightspeed, it should have been migrated to Shopify along with the customer’s order information.

Select the item(s) that the customer wants to return and specify the quantity and reason for the refund. f. Click “Calculate refund” to determine the amount to be refunded to the customer. g.

Communicate with the Customer: Reach out to the customer to inform them that their refund has been processed through Shopify. Provide them with any necessary information, such as the expected refund processing time and confirmation details.
