What is a charge back? What should I do in case of a charge back?
Under the rules of international card payment systems, credit card holders have the right to dispute transactions made with their cards. This dispute is sent by the cardholder's bank to the merchant's bank. The merchant's bank in turn asks the merchant to provide documents relating to the disputed transaction. If the requested documentation is insufficient, the merchant's bank collects the amount of the disputed transaction from the merchant and transfers it to the cardholder bank. This process is called a charge back.
In the event of a charge back, the following steps will be taken:
1. The cardholder disputes the charge with the credit card bank.
2. The card bank forwards this dispute via Paynet to the merchant for receipt of the transaction documents.
3. Paynet will lodge an objection with the workplace and request the documents relating to the transaction.
4. The workplace will send the relevant documents to Paynet.
5. If the merchant fails to provide documentation within the time limit, or if the documentation provided is deemed insufficient, the disputed amount will be debited from the merchant's account and returned to the cardholder's bank.
6. If the documents received are deemed sufficient, they will be forwarded to the bank holding the card and the dispute will be rejected. The merchant is not required to refund the amount.
Do I have to pay any fees for charge back reviews?
No, you do not pay anything.
What documentation is required for a charge back?
The documents required to be submitted to the bank for a charge back are the invoice and delivery note of the product if it is a product sold, the service contract if it is a service sold, and the transaction invoice. In this case, a document is required that legally proves that the goods and/or services were received by the cardholder. The best example is the delivery note signed by the logistics company. As this document bears the 'wet signature' of the cardholder, it is considered sufficient by the banks.
What increases the risk of charge backs?
Charge back risk can be reduced by being careful and mindful of certain points
We can treat this matter in two different ways: physical use of the card and virtual use of the credit card:
Cases where the card is physically used:
It should be checked that the credit card is a genuine bank card.
In cases where the credit card is physically used and the transaction is made without 3D, the identity of the cardholder should be confirmed.
Cases where the card is used in e-commerce transactions:
In virtual transactions, customers make transactions on the card in decreasing amounts.
Use of different names for the same card in transaction attempts.
Constant changes of delivery address for the same purchase.
Even if it is not related to these issues, riskizleme@paynet.com.tr should be informed if there is any suspicion about the transaction.
