More predictable refund, commission and chargeback split processing

We’re updating how Balance Platform handles split configuration for refunds, commissions and chargebacks. You’ll benefit from more consistent allocation logic, flexible commission options, and clearer accounting entries to support reconciliation.

Apply the latest split configuration

Refund and chargeback bookings now use the latest applicable split configuration at the time the event is booked. This creates more predictable allocation behavior and clarifies how profiles, request-level logic, and historical events are handled.

Configure commission independently

You can configure commission for refunds and chargebacks independently of amount and cost allocation. Commission is recorded as separate accounting transfers, making it easier to identify and reconcile these entries.

Review your configuration before enablement

Review your split configuration, refund and chargeback handling, and reconciliation processes to assess the impact of these changes. The updated behavior will be enabled gradually. If you want to use commission, you’ll need to configure it through the Management API.
