Merchant disputes

Respond to an incorrect-amount dispute

Compare the agreed price with the amount actually captured and any later adjustments.

Records to compare

  • Purchase-time total and currency
  • Accepted changes, tips or add-ons where relevant
  • Authorization and captured amounts
  • Partial refunds or adjustments

Check the conclusion

Show the arithmetic behind the disputed difference. If the merchant charged the wrong amount, record that fact instead of trying to explain it away.
