Credit is the place for merchants to record the advance payment received from customers.

In what scenario will use the credit feature?

  • When the customers pay you extra money. You can record it as a credit which the customer can use the credit in the next checkout.
  • The credit could be a kind of simple membership system in a way that the customers pay a sum of money in advance for getting the benefits as a member yet they are able to use the advance payment to make payment for the orders.

The specification of the credit feature

  • Credit entry will be shown in RM / $.
  • The credit will be used to deduct the merchandise price in priority except for some item cancellation cases the extra applied credit will be used to deduct the shipping fee / GST.
    Scenario: The customer has made a payment with the credit, but after some days that he/she decides to cancel some items from the order.
