How to dispute a card transaction and request a chargeback？

Have you noticed a card transaction on your Paytend bank account statement that you don’t recognize? Did you place an order online, but never receive it? Read on to find out how to request a chargeback in these instances..

Simply put, a chargeback is the return of a card payment to a customer by the merchant following a transaction dispute. The chargeback is paid out once the transaction dispute is successfully resolved in favor of the customer.  

Paytend  offers a chargeback service through Mastercard, which allows you to dispute transactions made by someone other than yourself, or when a mistake occurs on the merchant’s part. For example, if you ordered goods online and didn’t receive them by the expected delivery date, you may be eligible to file a chargeback to request your money back.

You can dispute a transaction from your Paytend mobile app.

1. Go to the ‘Home’ tab, and select the transaction you want to dispute 
2. Tap ‘Get help with this transaction’ and follow the steps provided. 

• If your dispute is about an unauthorized transaction, you’ll need to block and reorder your Paytend card to prevent further fraud before we can process your request. You’ll be guided through the steps in your Paytend app.  
• If you select a transaction but the ‘Get help’ button doesn’t appear, this means that the transaction is still in authorization. In this case, you’ll need to wait until the charge becomes a presentment. Read this article to learn about the difference between authorizations and presentments.
• If you’ve already closed your Paytend account and no longer have access to the Paytend app, you’ll need to contact customer service from your registered email address at service@Paytend.com.
