Store Vendor Credit Refund & Reversal Script
Used by: Store Partnerships / Vendor Management Team
Purpose:
To train internal teams on how to handle credit refund and reversal cases for B2Ch Store Vendors — where vendors pay daily credits to Cashkr for completed store orders, and adjustments are needed for cancelled, failed, or wrongly charged orders.
๐ฏ Objective
To ensure Vendor Management Team can:
-
Identify valid reasons for credit reversals
-
Process and verify reversal requests properly
-
Maintain fairness and documentation
-
Prevent misuse or manipulation of the daily credit system
๐๏ธ Internal Training Script for Vendor Managers
๐ฃ๏ธ 1. Understanding the Credit System
“In the B2Ch Store Vendor model, every vendor pays Cashkr Credits for each completed store order.
These credits act as Cashkr’s commission or service fee.
The vendor’s Wallet handles two separate flows:
1๏ธโฃ Customer Payments → Direct transfer to customer via Wallet
2๏ธโฃ Credits to Cashkr → Deducted once daily, based on all successfully completed store orders.”
Example:
If a vendor completes 8 store orders today and each order costs 5 credits →
Total 40 credits are deducted at the end of the day from their Wallet balance.
๐ฃ๏ธ 2. When Credit Reversals Happen
“Reversal = Returning credits back to a vendor when an order is later found to be cancelled, invalid, duplicate, or wrongly deducted.
This ensures vendors don’t lose credits for transactions that didn’t actually qualify as valid store orders.”

๐ฃ๏ธ 3. When Vendors Can Raise a Credit Refund Request

Vendors cannot raise these requests verbally or on WhatsApp.”

-
Order ID(s) in question

Cases reopened without new proof are automatically closed.”
๐ฃ๏ธ 8. Fraud / Misuse Handling
“Cashkr strictly monitors credit reversal misuse.
Vendors submitting 3 or more false or repetitive reversal requests in a 30-day period will be added to the Reversal Watchlist.
Penalties may include:

Temporary Hold on new orders
-
Suspension of reversal rights
-
Escalation to Ops Head for audit.”

โ “Cashkr restores credits only for cancelled, duplicate, or invalid orders.”
โ “All reversals go directly to the vendor’s Credit Balance — not Wallet.”
โ “Requests must come through the app, not calls or chats.”
โ “Transparency and audit trail are mandatory for every reversal.”
