Steps

  1. Go to https://wallet.edvisor.io/invoice-funds/all/list and create a new Corporate payment registration for the school. This ensures control of the refund amount and that funds return to EdWallet (the original source).
  2. Create a new corporate profile if needed at https://wallet.edvisor.io/settings/invoice_profiles.
  3. Create a withdrawal at https://wallet.edvisor.io/payouts/list to refund the student.
  4. Email payments@edvisor.io with payment IDs so the transactions can be monitored.

What to expect

  • Proof of original payment. Schools may require formal proof (ACH details, transaction date, amount, beneficiary, sender) before issuing refund. Obtaining this can take 15+ days.
  • Fund recalls. If the payments processor must recall funds from the school directly, a reason must be provided. Recalls take up to 21 days; bank fees may apply.
