Chargeback Stage

To change the stage of a Chargeback in the Signifyd system, you need to record a Chargeback Stage Event.

As well as changing the Chargeback stage, this Api allows you to optionally also update the Chargeback Amount, Reason and Representment Outcome.

This event must change the stage of a Chargeback. If the request contains the existing stage, then the request will be rejected.

The Chargeback Stage refers to the stage within the chargeback dispute lifecycle that the chargeback is in with respect to the payment processor/gateway.

  • RETRIEVAL - To be used when the issuer or the cardholder requests additional information regarding a charge on their card before they request for a credit and it is converted into a chargeback. There is no financial adjustment made at this stage.
  • CHARGEBACK - To be used when the issuing bank initiates the first chargeback on behalf of the cardholder by sending a chargeback notification stating the dispute reason.
  • PREARBITRATION - A pre-arb (pre-arbitration) is a second chargeback. To be used when the merchant challenges the chargeback and the bank initially rules in the merchant's favor, the cardholder can raise a second chargeback.
  • ARBITRATION - The final step that a merchant may encounter in the chargeback process is called arbitration. Arbitration involves the relevant card association stepping in to help resolve the dispute between the acquiring and issuing banks, and by extension the merchant and the cardholder.
  • RECALLED - To be used when the issuer or the cardholder recalls the chargeback. There are no adjustments to chargeback details made at this stage.
