Hello,  
To obtain tender id for refunds in this version, refer to your payment platform’s documentation. The tender id is the unique identifier of the original payment method.

With API version `2019-06-12` the supported method of refunding a payment was with the Transactions APIs `CreateRefund`. This endpoint is now retired and no longer supported. In order to issue refunds with our APIs you’ll need to upgrade to a version that supports our [RefundPayment](https://developer.squareup.com/reference/square_2024-04-17/refunds-api) endpoint. 🙂
