Handling Refunds for own product?

7 replies
I'm creating a cheap OTO around the $7 range, but I'm afraid to go through with it because I have no idea how refunds work or how to handle customer service. Also, I suppose they would buy the ebook via PayPal...PayPal doesn't display my full name when someone is buying something from me does it? Sorry, I haven't bought something using PayPal in a while.

    Processing refunds via PayPal is simple. Just get the person's transaction ID or email, find their order and press the refund button.

    As for displaying your name...if you have a business account, they'll only show your business' name.

    @Sean - Do you still incur the paypal transfer fees after refunding?

      When you refund the money via the Paypal refund interface, the credit for the transaction is factored in. The transaction zero's out: the purchaser gets the full purchase price back, and you don't get stuck with the transaction fee.

    TBH, I really don't know. Good question. Maybe someone with more experience than me can answer that.

    Dont worry about refunds. Just create a phenomenal product and market it like a mad man. If you get 1 refund for every 20 sales... this is good in my eyes.
