Know More

What’s better than instant refunds? Not having to refund at all. When your customer places an order, you can temporarily block some amount of funds on her card using Pre-authorization. If the order is modified or is canceled within a specific time frame (typically 7-9 days), you can mark the transaction void and the block is lifted. Pre Authorisation Flow customer makes payment payment gateway holds the money for 7-9 days customer request refunds transaction gets void, refund gets intiated

"High demand and low availability of trains and technical glitches sometimes make it difficult for train users to get their preferred berth after making an online payment, which leads to automatic cancellation of the booking. The preauthorisation feature on ixigo trains app, in this scenario, will initiate instant refunds providing our users a hassle-free booking experience and will ensure user gets the money back in the account almost instantly."
