There are many reasons why you may need to request a refund, and that’s okay! Each situation is handled a bit differently on our end, depending on the reason. Here’s a quick breakdown of how or why you may need to submit a refund request.

The offer code was not applied.

If you are requesting a refund due to an offer code not being applied during checkout, the money will come out of your studio’s Stripe account. PhotoDay-related charges such as our fee and lab costs will still be applicable to the total amount of the sale.

The customer ordered incorrectly and resent another order.

All funds will be removed from applicable accounts by PhotoDay. This includes our percentage of the sale, lab cost, and any studio markups from the lab cost. The final refund amount may vary depending on the incorrect order's printing and shipping status.

The customer would like their AdvancePay Credits refunded.

Whatever the reason (canceled picture day, absent subject, accidentally purchased 2 credits, etc.), you can request a refund back to the customer through the Refund Request Form (we show you how below).


How to Request a Refund

If you wish to submit a refund request, please visit the Refund Request Form within your Studio Panel > Resources > Support.

This form is for studios only and all refund requests must be initiated by you, the studio. PhotoDay will move as swiftly as possible to credit the funds back to your customer’s original payment method. The Customer Success team will reach out as soon as the refund request has been processed.
