Handle approved refunds for cancelled stays

Bring the cancellation decision and refund action together so an approved repayment does not get lost in follow-up.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create Refund

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

Why this helps

A cancellation may be resolved in Blue Pillow while the separate Stripe refund is still waiting to be handled.

  • Reduce missed refund follow-up after cancellations.
  • Support full or partial refunds when approved.
  • Keep the cancellation context available in the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blue Pillow Hotels & Stays and Stripe once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a full or partial refund only when the cancellation, eligible payment reference, and approved refund amount are present.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real cancellation and review the result.

Questions about this workflow

What starts the refund workflow?

An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Blue Pillow has no listed integration trigger events.

Can the workflow decide the refund amount on its own?

The amount or refund policy must be supplied or approved by you. Do not assume Blue Pillow provides a refund baseline or policy.

What does Stripe need to identify the payment?

The refund action targets either a specific charge ID or a payment intent ID.
