Alternatively, you can experience the checkout process at the HitPay Shopify Test Store.

​
Reconciling Orders between Shopify and HitPay

  • All HitPay transactions made through Shopify generate a unique payment ID.
  • The payment ID is visible in the HitPay transaction reports under Sales and Reports.
  • You can find this payment ID in the Shopify orders report under column BX.

​
Refunds

Refunds are fully integrated into the Shopify dashboard, so you can directly proceed to refund an order from the Shopify dashboard, and it will automatically refund the payment back to the customer.

Refunds will only be successful if they meet the criteria of the payment method used. Click Here for more details. If the refund fails, please try to refund directly from the Hitpay dashboard under “Transactions > Select > Refund” to know the exact error.

If you initiate a refund from the Hitpay dashboard, your Shopify order will not be marked as refunded. You need to manually update your order in Shopify.

Steps to Refund an Order in Shopify

  1. Log in to your Shopify Admin.
  2. Navigate to “Orders” in the left-hand menu.
  3. Select the order to refund.
  4. Click the “Refund” button within the order details.
  5. Specify refund details, including items and amount.
  6. Choose the refund method (original payment or store credit).
  7. Confirm and process the refund.
  8. Notify the customer about the refund.
  9. Check and ensure the order status is updated to “Refunded” or similar.
  10. Monitor the refund status for completion.
