PayWay Reversals – Process and Guidelines

Reversals

When Reversals Are Done

Reversals are only processed in the following cases:

  • Funds credited wrongly

  • Funds credited in excess

  • Funds deposited as airtime


Process for Reversals

  1. Verification

    • The agent first establishes why the customer needs a reversal.

    • For cases where the customer’s account is blocked or requires a PIN reset, the customer is advised to contact the service provider directly.

  2. Reversal Initiation

    • If money was credited on the wrong account or in excess, the agent writes to the respective service provider to initiate the reversal.

    • The client is informed of a time frame after which they should follow up for feedback.

  3. Customer Guidance

    • Customers are informed that reversals can only be completed if funds are recovered by the service provider.

    • For services like Tugende, where reversals are initiated by the service provider, customers are advised to contact them first so that PayWay can refund the agent accordingly.

    • For services that do not allow reversals (e.g., UEDCL, Lycamobile), customers are informed immediately.
