  2. Under “Payment refunds,” click “Request a refund” to open Paddle support.

Check the status

Return to the Credits page. The “Payment refunds” table shows the update date, amount, and status:

Status Meaning
Pending review Your request is being reviewed
Approved The refund has been approved; arrival time depends on Paddle and your payment method
Rejected The request was declined; check with Paddle for the reason or further assistance

Once a refund is approved, the Credits and consultation allowance from that payment are adjusted accordingly. To stop future renewal charges, follow the subscription management instructions to cancel renewal.
