How to request a chargeback?

Updated over a month ago

A chargeback is a return of money to a cardholder of a transaction.

What are the cases of a chargeback?

There are two main reasons for a chargeback:

  • Criminal fraud: If you have a suspicious transaction from your credit card, not done by you or not to your knowledge.

  • Merchant abuse: If something goes wrong with something you’ve bought, and you can’t sort it out with the retailer. Several examples:

    • You bought something online that was broken, or you couldn’t return it.

    • The seller charged you two times by mistake.

    • You canceled during the purchase process, but you have still charged by the seller.
