# Refund & Cancel

## Overview

A payment processed through iyzico can be refunded within a period of 365 days, 24/7. 

Operation covers under two headlines;

* Refund
* Cancel

While It is important to note that the **refund** transaction will be reflected in the statement, the timing of the refund appearing on the card may vary depending on the respective banks typically taking a few days to complete.

Majority of banks’ are able to **cancel** any payment within the same day that payment was received (before banks perform their own reconciliation) where the payment will not appear in the credit card statement. 

{% hint style="info" %}

## Refund

Refund request processes on a transactional level, means that it can be refund either the entire payment or a partial of it.

To process a refund; 

* the payment transaction ID (`paymentTransactionId`) 
* and the amount to be refunded (`price`) must be provided. 

If the refund process is successful, the refunded amount (price) will be returned from the service. The refund amount (price) should be less than or equal to the original transaction amount (`itemTransaction.paidPrice`) and the remaining refundable amount. As long as this rule is followed, multiple refunds can be made consecutively.

### Refund V2

Similar to [Refund](#refund) operation, iyzico offers Refund V2 which built upon `paymentId` instead of `paymentTransactionId.`

It is strictly not recommended to use the Refund V2 service for orders with more than one product in the basket.
{% endhint %}

To process a refund v2;&#x20;

* the paymentID (`paymentId`)&#x20;
* and the amount to be refunded (`price`) must be provided.&#x20;

## Refund V2

### Cancel

Similar to refunds, merchant may cancel their transaction with iyzico services.

Important notes that the key distinctions between a cancel and a refund are;&#x20;

* Cancel can be processed on the same day as the payment and does not create any input/output entries on the card statement.
* And cancel are not supporting partial amounts.

To initiate a cancellation, it is necessary to provide the payment ID (paymentId) associated with the transaction. If the cancellation process is successful, the canceled amount (price) will be returned from the service.&#x20;
