Description
The Smart Refunder add-on adds to WooCommerce a refund request flow directly in the My Account area, allowing customers to request a full or partial refund without opening a support ticket. For compatible gateways like PayPal, the refund is processed instantly; for digital products, the entire cycle is automated, and there is an option to return the value as store credit via integration with Smart Coupons.
