+Most paid payments can be automatically refunded back to the customer.
+To create a refund, call `createPaymentRefund($uid, $amount, $reason)`.
 
-Detect if payment is refundable by call getPaymentRefund($uid)->getAvailableAmount() !== 0.
+You can check whether a payment is refundable by inspecting the available refundable amount:
 
-A refunded amount can be smaller than availableAmount for payment but cannot be bigger,
-for one payment can be created multiple refunds.
+```php
+$available = $thePayClient->getPaymentRefund($uid)->getAvailableAmount();
+$isRefundable = ($available !== 0);
+```
+
+A refund can be **partial** or **full**:
+- You may refund less than the available amount
+- You may not refund more than the available amount
+- You may create multiple refunds for one payment, as long as sufficient refundable amount remains

-and if not available render some message for user
+Before creating a refund, always verify that the requested refund amount is still available.

 # Return of the Customer
 
-After payment creation, you will have to wait to return of the customer, keep in mind:
+After you create a payment, you redirect the customer to the payment gateway using the URL provided.
+Once the customer finishes (or abandons) the process at the gateway, they may be redirected back to your website.
 
-- the customer may not return to your website
-- the payment may not be paid in the moment of the return
+Keep in mind:
+- The customer may **not** return to your website
+- The payment may **not** be paid at the moment they return

+- The customer will be returned to url specified in administration (in the project settings):
 
-This value may be overridden for each payment in CreatePaymentParams by setReturnUrl() function.
+![settings](img/settings.png)
 
-There are two query parameters added to redirect url:
+You can override this value on a per-payment basis in `CreatePaymentParams` using the `setReturnUrl()` method.
 
-* payment_uid
-* project_id
+## Return URL Parameters
 
-In most cases you want to check the state of payment after customer's return:
+When the customer is redirected back, the following query parameters are appended:
+- payment_uid
+- project_id
 
-[See how to make TheClient](../.github/README.md#theclient-instance)
+You can use these identifiers to load the current state of the payment:

 $uid = $_GET["payment_uid"];
 $projectId = $_GET["project_id"];

-# Subscription payments
+# Subscription Payments
 
-It is possible to create long term subscription for your customers. The setup for subsription is done through regular endpoint for payment creation, but with the subscription properties set. The payment created can then be repeatedly paid by the customer, through a different endpoint.
+Subscription payments allow you to charge a customer repeatedly over time.
+A subscription is initialized through a standard payment creation request, but with subscription properties attached.
+Once the initial (parent) payment is completed, follow-up (child) payments can be realized using dedicated subscription endpoints.
 
-There are three different use cases with different endpoints for subscription payments, depending on payment time and payment amount needs.
-* Fixed time interval & fixed payment amount
-* Variable time interval & fixed payment amount
-* Fixed time interval & variable payment amount
+There are three main subscription types, depending on whether the time interval and payment amount are fixed or variable:
+- Fixed time interval & fixed amount
+- Variable time interval & fixed amount
+- Fixed time interval & variable amount
 
-The time interval or amount with fixed value is always set in the first (parent) payment upon payment creation. It is your responsibility to adhere to the values set in the parent payment. If you need to change the fixed payment amount or time period, a new subscription payment with different parameters must be used.
+Any value marked as fixed must be set in the parent payment, and it is your responsibility to adhere to it when creating child payments.
+If your subscription requires a different amount or interval, you must create a new parent subscription payment.
