Chargebacks are the most prominent algorithmic way to discern if your product transactions and customer support are adequately satisfying your customers. If your business model is yielding high chargebacks, this gives issuing banks the impression that your customers are not satisfied with your business product and/or customer support. This could lead to the potential termination of your merchant accounts, which cripples your ability to accept credit card payments and can lead to severe losses to your business. Managing chargebacks with ChargebackHelp is vital to the longevity of your business – our 30+ years of combined industry experience will work to your benefit.

The TL/DR: Representment is when a merchant disputes a cardholder’s claim of a fraudulent charge, and can provide compelling evidence to support this. When the merchant submits a transaction to receive the funds from the bank, this is called “presentment.” Chargebacks reverse the presentment process at the cardholder’s request. So “representment” is the re-submission of a merchant’s disputed presentment. Click here for the internet’s best explanation of representment.
