Let your clients know if you have a refund plan and explain precisely how it works. For many information product vendors, that means a 100% cash back guarantee. If you’re selling physical products or a service, your terms could differ, though.

Supplying a money-back guarantee assists you prevent conflicts in PayPal, since your consumers will know they can merely send you an e-mail and you’ll refund their purchase.

  1. The item did not arrive.
  2. The product was ruined when it showed up.
  3. The item was not as explained.

The third factor is the one that afflicts information sellers, and the one that is most challenging to resolve.

Then, of course, reply to their call quickly and professionally.

How can you protect yourself against these situations? Simply avoid the use of buzz when you make or design your sales pages. Don’t make large promises or guarantees that your item won’t be able to take on. Instead, properly and accurately describe the item and its benefits. And, if you can, supply a sample so customers know precisely what their getting for their money.

Actually having a conflict filed against you does not need to result in the end of your partnership with PayPal. However, if you have a number of problems over time, PayPal might begin to look at your account as a potential issue. As a result, it’s a sensible idea to do everything you can to avoid disagreements in the first place.
