See Credit Cards guides for more info on refunding Credit Card transactions over PIX network.

  2. Direct Debit

    There are no limitations on how old the transaction is when processing refunds with SEPA Direct Debit, as SEPA Direct Debit has no concept of a refund but is a Direct Transfer transaction.
