Proactive Prevention

Early-stage tools such as pre-dispute alerts and automated customer service  can help identify potentially fraudulent transactions and proactively resolve transaction issues – reducing the overall likelihood of chargebacks.

Automation for Efficiency

Automating chargeback processes at various stages can significantly reduce manual workload, speed up response times, maintain data collection and document consistency, and streamline chargeback operations. 

Customer Satisfaction

By facilitating communication and dispute resolution with customers, businesses can respond quickly to chargeback claims – increasing the chances of a successful resolution, and improve customer satisfaction.

Say Goodbye to Chargebacks

By creating a robust framework that addresses chargebacks at every and any stage, businesses can effectively minimize losses, enhance customer trust, and streamline their dispute resolution processes.

How Pre-Dispute Alerts Help You Stay Ahead

Reduce Chargeback Rate

By receiving alerts in near real-time, you can stop fulfillment or issue a refund before a chargeback is filed—cutting dispute volumes at the source.

Increase Acceptance Rates

Fewer chargebacks mean a healthier risk profile, which can improve transaction approval rates and reduce false declines.

Lower Operational Costs

Managing representments is time-consuming and expensive. Alerts reduce the need for manual investigations and documentation, freeing up your team.

Strengthen Issuer and Acquirer Relationships

Proactive resolution of disputes builds trust with issuers and acquirers—helping maintain strong partnerships and avoid compliance issues.

Improve Customer Experience

Resolving issues before they become chargebacks shows customers you care—leading to better satisfaction and loyalty.
