Refund automatically when approval is posted

Refund approvals live in Linear comments, but Stripe refunds are processed manually. Notis closes that gap: approval comment posted, refund processed in Stripe automatically.

Create Refund

Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.

Why this helps

Refund approvals scatter across Linear discussions, but Stripe refunds are still entered manually—a step that delays refunds and loses context.

  • Refunds process instantly when approval is documented in Linear
  • No manual Stripe refund entry—approval triggers the refund automatically
  • Customers get refunded faster; clear audit trail in Linear
  • Reduced manual work and fewer delayed refunds

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Stripe integrations to Notis.
  • 2Create automation: 'When a refund is approved in a Linear issue comment, process the refund in Stripe.'
  • 3Define approval keywords (e.g., 'refund approved', 'approved for refund', 'process refund').
  • 4Set your notification channel for refund processing confirmations.
  • 5Test by posting an approval comment on a Linear issue and verifying the Stripe refund processes.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know the refund amount?

Mention the refund amount in the approval comment or link to the original charge. Notis extracts the amount and processes exactly that.

Can I refund full or partial amounts?

Yes. Specify the amount in the Linear comment. Notis processes partial refunds if requested, or full refunds by default.

How does Notis identify which charge to refund?

Include the charge ID or customer name in the Linear comment. Notis uses that to find and refund the correct charge.
