When you are running an eCommerce store, dealing with product exchanges and cancellations are unavoidable. Unlike shopping at brick-and-mortar stores, customers don’t get the opportunity to try or examine the product before making the purchase.
Customers exchange/cancel the product due to several reasons. It can be a size issue, the incorrect product ordered, product no longer required, etc.
If a customer is unable to exchange or cancel the order in case he is not satisfied with the purchase, he may move to another store. Thanks to Prestashop Order Exchange/Cancellation, you can now allow your customers to easily create exchange/cancellation for the orders placed.
This extension facilitates the customers to exchange the products of any previous order with new products.
Also, an additional payment option “Pay via wallet” is provided to the customers on the store. Customers can add money into their Prestashop wallet and use it for making payment for the orders hassle-free.
Increase customer satisfaction, improve the shopping experience, and boost conversions by letting customers exchange/cancel the orders with ease.
Note: PrestaShop Order Exchange/Cancellation module is compatible with PrestaShop version 8.x.x and multi-store feature.

- If exchange request gets approved and the amount of exchange product is more than the amount of previously ordered product, then the module will check whether the sum of an amount of previously ordered product and wallet is equal/more than the amount of exchange product.
- 1. If yes, then the order will be placed.
2. If no, then it will show the alert message indicating insufficient balance in the wallet
Once admin accepts the cancellation/exchange request, the status of requests changes from pending to complete and a customer can view it under “My Request” tab.
Customer Wallet Settings
Admin can select whether the wallet will be operational for single currency or multiple currencies.
Wallet for single currency
If admin has opted to use the wallet for the single currency, then the wallet balance will not be available for other currencies (if selected by the customer on frontend).
A customer has selected US dollar ($) as the context currency.
A customer has selected Euro (€) as the context currency.
Wallet for Multiple Currencies
If admin has enabled the creation of wallet in multiple currencies, then the wallet money will be converted into the selected context country.
Suppose the currencies installed in your PrestaShop are USdollar ($) and Euro (€).
A Customer has selected US dollar ($) as the context currency.
A customer has selected Euro (€) as the context currency.
Account Page
A customer can add money to the wallet and view all the transactions done through wallet under “My Wallet” tab.
On clicking the “My Wallet” tab, the customer will find an interface from where money can be added to the Wallet.
When a customer enters the amount he wants to add in his wallet and clicks on “ADD MONEY” button, he will be redirected to the order page where he has to select a payment method for completing the order.
Once the order gets confirmed, a customer can view the transaction on the wallet page as shown below:
On confirmation of crder on customer’s end, the admin will have to change the order status to “Payment Accepted” to ensure that the balance is displayed in the customer’s wallet.
From admin’s end when order status has been changed to “Payment Accepted”, customer’s wallet balance will be displayed and the wallet is now ready to use.
Now a customer can use the wallet balance for making the purchase on the store.
If customer’s order amount is less than the wallet balance, the entire amount will be deducted from wallet if the customer opts to pay via Prestashop wallet.
Now if a customer’s order exceeds the wallet balance, payment can still be made using the wallet balance and the remaining amount can be made via any other payment gateway available or the customer will also have an option to add more money to the wallet on run-time without losing its cart where he has added the products that he wants to purchase.
Now, if a customer chose to pay the remaining amount via another payment method(for example – by cheque), then in My Account -> My Wallet a transaction of only $100 will be shown while the payment for the remaining $81.93 will be shown in the Customer Orders. Go to My Account -> Order History and Details to view this.
Wallet – Admin End
Admin can view all the customer’s transactions done through wallet by navigating through Customers->Wallet.
