How long does it take for a Square Card to receive a refund?

[aromaandclothin]

I won a paypal dispute and my refund was processed and approved on 5/13. Typically how long does it take for it to reappear on my business square card?

Hello @aromaandclothin!

As soon as Square receives the refund from PayPal you'll see the money in your card balance. But keep in mind refunds can take up to 10 business days from the date the merchant issues the refund to post to your account. (Refunds don't always take the full 10 business days so you could see it sooner than that!)

The title of this thread has been edited from the original: Returned purchase made with Square Card  square card

Looking for any information on how items purchased using my square card that are returned and a credit/refund from retailer was processed thru their POS device back onto my square card?  Is the processing different than the credited refund to a credit or debit card?  Does the refunded amount post back onto card or credited into bank account square card is linked to? How long does it take to post to either card or account?

Thank you for any info you can provide.

I use square for my company. I recently booked a company trip for October using my company card. I have been informed today that my current rental is under new ownership and that they will be refunding all deposits and than we have the option to rebook the rental. My question is can they refund the money to my square card. I have heard conflicting things that you can't have refunds to your square card you can only issue refunds.

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Hi @DelightfulJewel! Welcome to the Seller Community. 

I'm moving your post to a relevant thread in our Community that exists around receiving refunds to your Square Card.

It is possible to receive your refund there if the original purchase was made on the card!

This thread has more information on the timeframe of it too.
