Update a mediation
Authorized administrators can manage refunds in case of a mediation (figure 4).
Authorized administrators can adjust the refund amounts by either:
Sliding the buttons from left to right automatically updates the refund amount for the other user.
Enter numerical values in the numerical fields to automatically update the refund amount for the other user.
The commission fields are prefilled with the default values applied to the concerned users.
Click “save changes” (figure 5) to save the refund amounts. At this stage, the refunds are not done yet.
Clicking “Resolve mediation” (figure 6) to apply the refund and solve the mediation (figure 7).
Handling refunds for a mediation
Asker refunds are automatically done and listed in the “Payments” section (figure 8) accessible as follows:
Path: SBO > Bookings > Payments > Payout
However, offeror refunds need to be manually executed by authorized administrators (figure 9).
The payout process is described in the following documentation: Payments management
Refunds executed through mediation always withdraw the funds from the user's wallet the platform administrator determined to be in debt.
The mediation must be done directly through the SBO. We do not advise doing a transaction to solve a mediation outside of the platform as it can not be recognized by the system.
Delete a mediation
Mediations cannot be deleted.
