Best Practices
Preventing disputes and handling them efficiently requires proactive measures. Follow these best practices to minimize chargebacks and fraudulent activities:
- Keep detailed transaction records
- Maintain thorough records of all transactions, including invoices, payment confirmations, delivery receipts, and customer communications. These records serve as crucial evidence in case of disputes.
- Respond to disputes within the allotted time frame
- Each payment network has a specific window for responding to disputes. Failing to respond in time may result in an automatic chargeback, leading to financial losses. Set up alerts and workflows to handle disputes promptly.
- Use fraud detection tools effectively
- Leverage fraud detection systems, such as AI-driven risk analysis, velocity checks, and address verification systems (AVS), to identify and block suspicious transactions before they lead to disputes. Enforcing security measures like two-factor authentication (2FA) also helps prevent unauthorized transactions.
