Order Cancellation Options

ZD2 offers flexible cancellation options to accommodate both customers and retailers, minimizing operational disruptions.

• Order Cancellation by Customers: Customers can request to cancel their orders directly from their accounts before the order processing stage. This self-service option reduces the need for manual support and speeds up cancellation handling.

• Configurable Cancellation Policies: Retailers can define cancellation time frames and policies visible at checkout, ensuring customers understand their options and conditions upfront.

Refund Processing

• Automatic Refunds: For eligible transactions, refunds can be processed automatically by the system, minimizing processing times.

• Manual Refunds: Retailers can initiate manual refunds through the dashboard when special cases arise or for payment methods requiring manual intervention.

Transaction History Updates

All cancellations and refunds are transparently recorded within each order’s transaction history. This ensures clear audit trails for both customers and retailers, helping to maintain trust and comply with record-keeping requirements.
