How are cancellations and refunds processed?

Cafe24 does not mediate or automate cancellations/refunds. You must manually handle all cancellations and refunds directly on AliExpress and update your store's order status accordingly.

Please follow the manual procedures below based on the situation:

1. Customer Requests Cancellation/Return 

  • The operator must log in to AliExpress, find the relevant order in the My Orders menu, and apply for cancellation (before shipping) or a refund/return (after shipping).
  • Note: For returns after shipping, approval depends on the seller's policy, and return shipping costs may be borne by the operator or the customer.
     

2. AliExpress Order Failure or Supplier Cancellation 

  • Even if an order is cancelled by the supplier (due to stock shortages, delivery issues) or fails to be created, your store's order status does not update automatically.
  • Action: You must inform the customer of the issue, then manually cancel the order in Cafe24 and process the refund.
