Enable Refunds
By default, refunds are disabled on Tyro payment terminals. You'll need to enable these before you're able to complete a refund in Retail POS. This process will need to be completed on each Tyro terminal.
To enable refunds, open the menu, and select Configuration.
Choose the Refunds option and enable refunds. You'll need to enter your Refund password. If you haven't set a refund password on your Tyro terminal, this will be your Tyro admin password. If you don't remember this, contact Tyro customer support on 1300 966 639.
Once refunds are enabled, you'll be able to process refunds from your Retail POS store.
