Really Are You Managing Chargebacks Timely?


Chargebacks are unwanted guests nobody wants them. Same as with chargebacks they can be treated timely and cured well with proper guidance and precautions. 

A chargeback can only be destroyed by proper file work. It requires proper attention initially and then proper paperwork will make a strong base in the future.

Merchants are vulnerable if they do not have clear documentation available to resolve the chargebacks and submit the responses.

We have made it to a few points that could help you in getting a successful chargeback response:


Make Proper Evidence For It

Every chargeback will demand different evidence and data that is tied to the reason code with the dispute.

•Display the cardholder’s satisfaction with the product or service

•The product was being used, despite the dispute claiming it never arrived from shipping.

Keep the Details:

You should support your case with phone logs, email correspondences, and any additional information that validates the cardholder’s identity and shows that he was aware of the transaction.

 Keeping minute details comes in very useful when making a sale. It may be irrelevant at the time of trade but when the chargeback comes the small detail is probably the best asset you could have.

If a merchant feels that the evidence is strong enough to win the chargeback, the Arbitration method can be used to resolve chargebacks faster. The Pre-Arbitration does not involve the card network like Visa.
The general the flow of the chargeback starts from the customer, where the customer initiates the chargeback then the merchant either provides the evidence to fight chargeback or simply gives a refund.

Arbitration is like a court trial where both the parties that are merchant and customer present their cases to the card network (Visa).
After examining the details of both the parties the final decision is given by the card network.

Visa Chargeback Reason Code 72: No Authorization

The buyer’s bank received a transaction for which the authorization was not obtained. The reasons of such code could be- not obtaining an authorization for a transaction or, for card present or obtaining it after the date of transaction. The buyer’s bank may only put a chargeback for the amount exceeding the transaction date. This chargeback occurs when goods and services did not obtain authorization for the particular transaction exceeding the goods and service’s Floor Limit. This chargeback may be inverted, if the merchant provides sufficient information such as the transaction date, a valid authorization code or a proof that a credit was issued. On the other hand, this chargeback can be avoided by obtaining an authorization code and date for each transaction processed.

The merchant :
  • The transaction amount does not exceed the amount in the limited Authorization response.
  • The limited authorization index was present in the Authorization Request.
  • The goods and services did not obtain an authorization on present card, or a transaction was made after the authorization code and transaction date.
  • The merchant should request an authorization for the known amount along with the estimated tip. The vendor did not exclude the tip in the authorization amount.
  • Transaction amount of authorization and Authorization code along with date, if other than the transaction amount and transaction date.
  • Transaction Was Authorized: If authorization license was accessed , inform the bank of the transaction date and amount.
  • Transaction Was Not Authorized: If authorization license was not accessed, accept the chargeback..
  • Obtain an Authorization:Obtain an authorization before finishing the transaction. When the card is swiped and dollar amount is entered, an authorization request is sent. A certificate is then printed if the transaction is accepted; if it is not accepted, the merchant receives a failure message at point of sale.

Prevention

  • Obtain an authorization confirmation before completing transactions. The authorization request is sent automatically when you swipe the card and enter the amount. An acknowledgment is printed if the transaction is approved and if it’s not, you will receive a Pick Up message, Call Center or decline on your terminal.
  • Do not include the tip in your authorization application. Make sure that the authorization amount is equal to the check amount and the tip is rejecting. So if the bill before tip is for $70.00, an authorization should be requested for $70.00. Contact your point of sell out dealer and make sure that your point of sell out terminal has been register to authorize only for the check amount before the tip is added.

Visa Chargeback Reason Code 62: Counterfeit Transaction

The bank received a written complaint from the customer claiming he did not authorize or participate in the transaction. In other words, the transaction was made with a forged credit card.
Buyer refused any participation or authorization in such transaction and claims his card is misused without his permission.

Most Common Causes
When the Merchant:
  • Failed to compare the first four digits of the account number on the front of the card with the digits printed below or above the account number.
  • Did not record the digits printed below or above the card on transaction receipt.
  • Accepted a chip card, but processed the payment as a retreat transaction, via swipe, key-entry, or did not follow exercisable acceptance mechanics, or paper voucher.
  • Received an authority approval without transmitting all expected data.

Evidence Required
  • If the transaction was false , accept the chargebacks.
  • If the card was swiped and transaction authorized at the point of sell out, provide your acquirer with a copy of the printed sales acknowledgment.
  • Cardholder later denies authorization or participation in the Transaction.
  • This chargeback may be reversed by providing an imprinted or swiped sales draft signed by the cardholder along with any other information connected to this transaction or proof that a credit came out.

Prevention
  • Avoid fallback processing Choice (key-entered transactions, signature and provided card PIN)
  • Check for other pointers on the card,Verify that the first four decorate numbers match the printed numbers on the visa card.
  • If you key-enter a transaction because the magnetic strip cannot be read, be sure to get an imprint of the front of the card either on a manual sales receipt or sales receipt form, which should be undersigned by the customer.
  • If you are suspected of a card or cardholder for any cause, inform your acquirer using the code for suspect or cheat.
  • When a cardholder claims to have not authorized certain transactions. To prevent this type of fraud, the merchant should analysis all credit card securities before allowing the transaction to go through.


Linda went shopping with her friends on a long weekend holiday. The next day she checks her account to see how much she spent, but is left startled to see an unknown charge on her account. She contacts the merchant, but the merchant couldn’t help her remember the charge on which she thinks that her card has been forged and therefore files for a chargeback under the Reason Code 62: Counterfeit Transaction.

Most Common Causes And Prevention Of MasterCard Reason Code 4802

Description

The buyer’s bank requested a copy of the order receipt, and found it as an illegible copy, or something other than the requested item. Most commonly caused by the seller when he provides a substitute order receipt that did not contain all of the required information or was an incomplete substitute acknowledgment, or other than the requested item. Mastercard chargeback reason codes describe the motivation for a cardholder’s dispute with a merchant and are identifiable by their four-digit numbers



Most Common Causes

The merchant submitted order receipt with the information which is not sufficient or incomplete or is different from the requested information.

Characters in the receipt were invisible or not prominent because of light ink.

  • The copy is ribbed or on colored paper. 
  • The copy is faded or stained. 
  • The original order receipt is mishandled. 
  • The original sales receipt is scanned in smaller size, makes it unclear or different


Evidence Required

  • If possible, resubmit a copy that is clear enough to read or complete copy of the order receipt to the acquirer. 
  • If the merchant has incomplete or missing information, accept the chargeback. 
  • If the merchant provided illegible copy and an enquiry is related to a fraud, accept the chargeback.


In such case, the merchant doesn’t have any re-presentment rights.

Prevention

Scan the order receipt in actual size as original sales receipt or print on white paper only. Scanning in smaller size makes it unclear or distinct.

Replace/refill the printer’s toner or cartridge so that it doesn’t run low on ink or paper. When the ink starts to fade, use different cartridge. When the first copy starts to fade or stain, change the roll of the printer.

Print and keep white copy of order receipt, give colored one to the customer, the color paper does not copy as visible as white one.

Make copies at the similar size as the original order receipt. If the sales acknowledgement is scanned or microfilmed, do not reduce the image size, it results in poor quality of the copy.

Position of the company name/logo should be separate from transaction information, make sure that the company name or logo on the order receipt is visible. Business message should be printed away from the transaction information.

Make sure the company’s name on buyer’s bill or billing statement is clearly visible and is also correct, the customer must check this information on the credit card and then see the merchant’s name and descriptor on the billing statement.

Common Examples:

Linda complains to the bank that the charge on her card is more than she was supposed to pay on which her bank asks the merchant to provide them with a copy of the receipt. The merchant hence fails to submit a complete and readable copy of the original receipt and therefore endures a chargeback under the Reason Code 4802: Request Copy Illegible or Invalid.

George thinks that he received a call from his internet service provider regarding a due charge so—he pays the amount, however, he later realizes that it was a fraud call. He calls his bank about the fraud on which the bank reaches out to the merchant. The merchant fails to provide the copy of receipt in order to prove that the customer rendered any of their services. Hence the bank puts a chargeback on the merchant under the Reason Code 4802: R

Most Common Causes And Prevention Of Visa Reason Code 30?


Description

The issuing bank received a claim from the cardholder that merchandise or services ordered were not received or that the order was cancelled due to the delay in the delivery of merchandise or services. The most common causes of this chargeback reason code are when services are not provided, merchandise is not shipped, transaction is billed prior to shipping the merchandise or when merchandise is not sent by the agreed upon delivery date.




Most Common Causes


  • Did not send the goods/service by the agreed delivery date.
  • Didn’t clearly mention the expected shipping date and arrival date for the order.
  • Didn’t deliver the goods or provide the service as per in the agreement.
  • Billed the cardholder before delivering the merchandise.
  • Didn’t make goods available for pick-up upon agreement.

Merchant Responses:

If the merchandise was delivered by the agreed upon delivery date, provide details of delivery or evidence of delivery, such as a delivery receipt signed by the cardholder or delivery confirmation that the merchandise was delivered to the correct address.


If the merchandise has not been delivered yet, there is a set delivery date, provide a copy of the sales receipt, invoice, or other information showing the expected delivery date.


If the merchandise was delivered after the agreed upon delivery date, provide the shipment date or expected delivery date or proof of delivery and acceptance by the cardholder at the correct address.


If services were rendered, provide the date services were completed and evidence that the customer acknowledged receipt (signed sales receipt, invoice, etc.)



Prevention:

If delivery of goods or services are delayed, advise or notify the customer in writing and make available an expected shipping date. Provide the cardholder the option if he wants to continue with the order or cancels it.

For future delivery of Goods or services, clearly mention the expected shipping date and delivery date on the invoice or order receipt.

For services rendered, provide a signed order receipt or invoice showing receipt of services.

For delivered merchandise, no need to provide order receipts until the product has been shipped.

Communicating with the Cardholder:

Clear lines of communication for chargeback reason code between the merchant and the cardholder are a vital component to successful credit card processing. When cardholders do not recognize a charge or have difficulty reaching the merchant with questions, it opens the door to cardholder disputes and chargebacks. Written communications with the cardholder via email or print can be a powerful aid to keeping the lines of communication open and can provide the merchant with additional protection in the event of a chargeback or dispute.

Common Examples

Linda ordered a new dress online. It’s been over the time frame of the merchant’s shipping policy and she didn’t receive the dress yet. Now Linda has two options, either contact the merchant and request the information on her dress, OR contact her bank and start a dispute with Reason Code 30: Services Not provided or Merchandise Not Received.
