Common questions.
How quickly do I receive chargeback alerts?
Cardflo provides chargeback alerts in near real-time, often within hours of a cardholder initiating a dispute with their bank. This speed is crucial for allowing merchants to intervene and resolve issues before they become full chargebacks, minimising financial impact.
What actions can I take when I receive a chargeback alert?
Upon receiving a chargeback alert, you can choose to refund the customer, contact them for resolution, or gather evidence for potential representment. Timely action through our system can prevent the dispute from escalating to a costly chargeback, saving fees and time.
Are chargeback alerts effective for all transaction types?
Chargeback alerts are effective for most transaction types processed through card networks that participate in alert programs. While not every single dispute will generate an alert, they significantly reduce overall chargeback volume by addressing a substantial portion of potential disputes early.
