# Issue refunds

> Refund a payment and track the refund.

Refund all or part of a captured payment using the original payment intent.

**1. Create the refund**

Call [Create Refund](https://docs.mygigsters.com/api-reference/payments/create-refund.md) with the `payment_intent_id` and the `amount` to return. Partial refunds are supported by passing an amount smaller than the original payment.

**2. Track it**

Refunds progress through `RECEIVED` → `PROCESSING` → `COMPLETED` (or `FAILED`). Poll [Refund Status](https://docs.mygigsters.com/api-reference/payments/refund-status.md) with the `refund_id`, or use webhooks.
