Transactions

The Transactions View in CourseLayer provides a centralized place to monitor all student purchases. This includes one-time payments and recurring subscriptions, all of which are processed via Stripe.

Key Features

1. Payment & Subscription Management

• Payments Tab – Displays all one-time transactions.
• Subscriptions Tab – Lists all active and past recurring payments (monthly, quarterly, or annually).

2. Filtering & Searching

• Filter by Payment Status – Admins can filter transactions based on their current state:
  • ✅ Paid
  • ⏳ Processing
  • 🔄 Refunded
  • ❌ Failed
  • ⏳ Expired
  • ⏳ Pending
  • 🚫 Cancelled
• Search by Student – Quickly locate all transactions associated with a specific student by name or email.

3. Exporting Transactions

Admins can export a list of transactions as a CSV file, including: ✅ Payment method
✅ Refund status
✅ Purchased products
✅ Transaction amounts and dates

Refund Processing

• Instant Processing – Refunds issued through CourseLayer are processed immediately via Stripe, but Stripe may take 48-72 hours to finalize the transaction.
• Partial Refunds – If multiple products were purchased in a single transaction, admins can refund specific items instead of the entire purchase.
• Automatic Stripe Sync – Refunds are automatically reflected in Stripe, eliminating the need to manually process them via the Stripe dashboard.

Subscription Handling

• Canceling Subscriptions – Admins must manually cancel subscriptions through Stripe for now. (This feature will be integrated into CourseLayer in a future update.)
• Failed Subscription Payments – If a payment attempt fails, the system will automatically retry multiple times.
  • If all retry attempts fail, the student will be unenrolled from the course.
