Merchants lose billions of dollars to disputes annually1
Rising disputes volumes create a frustrating reality
that leaves merchants unable to accurately account for
earnings while increasingly overburdened by the
operational expense required for dispute management of
chargebacks that often cost more than the value of the
initial credit card transaction to fight.

inquiries resolved in pre-dispute, before a
chargeback initiated4
Verifi’s PREVENT and RESOLVE solution suites offer
merchants two lines of defense against unnecessary
disputes.
PREVENT equips merchants to
bridge the communication gap with transaction
transparency and data sharing to automatically
deflect confirmed first-party-misuse disputes before
chargebacks are initiated.
RESOLVE
empowers merchants to automatically intercept
inquires in the pre-dispute stage, before a
chargeback is initiated. Merchants have the choice
to resolve the pre-dispute by providing the
cardholder a credit or proceed with the traditional
chargeback process.
Pre-dispute prevention and resolution lowers dispute
volumes with automation to alleviate the expense and
operational burden disputes place on merchants.
