What disputes look like here.

Four claims this kind of merchant sees most, the way the issuer codes them, and what in the record addresses each. Every reason code.

Standard band
per protected transaction

Every band gets the full stack: the record, the automated response, terminal software, the portal, and processing at cost.

Find your band
At checkout by default
  • Clear disclosure of merchant, items, and terms on every sale

What the customer sees: nothing extra on a normal sale. At score 28, the demo order gets no step-up at all.
One sale, on the record

What the issuer sees when the claim arrives.

The record on the right is this merchant's sale from the flow demonstration, as it would be filed. The same five entries exist for every protected sale; only the verification steps differ by band and score. Times are illustrative.
