“Counter” in Japanese is 窓口 (madoguchi).

Refers to a designated place where people handle requests, payments, or other services face to face.

払い戻しは窓口で受け付けています。hara i modo shi wa mado guchi de u ke tsu ke te i ma su

Refunds are handled at the counter.

In everyday Japanese, 窓口 (madoguchi) can mean an organization's point of contact as well as a physical ticket window, so it is broader than the English word counter.

カウンターでお金を払います。ka u n tā de o kane o hara i ma su
