Stop fraud and chargebacks
and increase your profits
THE PROBLEM
Know what vanity license plates and billing descriptors have in
common? Nobody seems to know what either of them really mean!
In fact, “cardholder does not recognize transaction” represents
one of the top fraud reason codes, contributing to a growing
$40 billion fraud and chargeback problem. Confusing billing
descriptors and lack of timely information being shared across
the payments ecosystem leads to painful but avoidable instances
of fraud, lost customers and sales for merchants.
A tangled game of telephone that costs everyone profits
Market feedback indicates that up to 86% of cardholders bypass the
merchant, and instead call the issuer directly to inquire about or
dispute a charge on his/her statement. This places the resolution
emphasis on the issuer who largely lacks the information to
adequately validate the purchase. Since the purchase details reside in the
merchant’s billing system, the issuer is generally limited to either filing a fraud
claim and or issuing a chargeback to address cardholder’s inquiry or dispute. With
studies indicating that roughly 25% of total ecommerce loss is attributable to
“friendly fraud”1
and operational costs associated with chargebacks impacting
merchants’ profits by up to 20%2
, the true impacts of avoidable disputes can be
very damaging.
Lags in information flow compound the problem
The information that does flow can come very late in the game. For example if
merchants are only learning about a dispute via a chargeback received from their
acquirer or the fraud process via sources like TC40 data, it’s often too late. The
merchant ends up with added chargeback expenses, losing the sale (which could
have been legitimate), losing the customer and potentially damaging their brand.

THE SOLUTION
Order Insight is a proprietary, patent-pending platform that
connects cardholders, merchants and issuers to resolve
billing confusion and disputes that lead to false fraud
claims, unnecessary chargebacks and lost profits.
Supporting card present and card-not-present transactions,
Order Insight provides issuers with key purchase details to
help validate the legitimacy of the sale with the cardholder,
reconfirm the purchase, or enhance identification of fraud for
follow up actions.
This early warning system also helps merchants support
their brand through real time insight into consumer dissatisfaction, so
that they can proactively retain or win back customers and build long term
loyalty and sales.
The right information, for the right parties, at the right time
Order Insight is directly integrated with top issuers, so when a cardholder contacts the issuer directly to
question a charge, the order details shared by the merchant are readily available to support the legitimacy
of the sale. The Issuer gains immediate insight into customer-merchant relationship (account lifespan) with
details such as transaction history, product information, dispute history and PAN/device usage history to
validate the charge as accurate or more quickly confirm a fraudulant purchase.
Robust order validation and transaction details may include;
• Merchant details – including merchant name, address, customer service phone and email along with
relevant links including terms and conditions, warranty, and return policy to identify the merchant.
• Device name – used to make the purchase like “Jane’s X Phone” provides a personal tie to help jog a
customer’s memory.
• Product/services details – (including product names, sizes and quantities) – helps alleviate billing
descriptor confusion.
• Unique customer information – customer name, registered username, IP address, location, phone number
and email address included in merchant customer profile help connect the cardholder to the information
they entered when placing the purchase. Issuers can also compare this profile information with the data on
file while the cardholder accesses the issuers online banking system for added verification.
• Transaction dispute history – provides details about the length of the customer/merchant relationship.
Account/customer activity (active in last 3 months) also shows whether or not any disputes were filed,
refunds issued or if the account was delinquent at any time.

KEY BENEFITS
Identify and Reduce Fraud, “Friendly Fraud” and Chargebacks – cardholder, merchant and issuer
collaboration enables purchase details to be shared with the cardholder upon inquiry to legitimize and
reconfirm the sale.
• Reduce instances of fraud and chargebacks where the cardholder does not recognize the
charge or is seeking to fraudulently avoid paying for the item or service.
• Real time insight for instances of true fraud from the issuer to improve fraud protocols
and stop pending purchases to reduce future losses.
Reduce Profit Leakage and “Double Dipping” – avoids unnecessary chargeback fees, fines and
operational drain researching/resolving disputes that could have been addressed without escalation.
• Merchants receive real time visibility on the customer outcome to prevent “double dipping” by
unscrupulous customers trying to obtain more money than they are entitled.
Improve Cardholder Experience Preserve Loyalty and Sales – one call resolution for the cardholder
reinforces positive brand image and shared feedback loop to improve operations.
• Timely insight into customer satisfaction provides invaluable feedback to retain or win back
lost customers.
Pro-Active Representment – order details help support the compelling evidence requirements with
the issuer to prevent disputes from becoming a chargeback.
• Helps lower operational expenses and internal resource burdens fighting valid sales that would
become chargebacks later.
Retain Customers and Revenue – removes cardholder confusion by validating the purchase the
cardholder or an authorized user made upfront with details designed to increase customer awareness
of the purchase.
• Transaction details reduce customer friction and allow the merchant to quickly “remind”
customers of their purchase, increasing retention of both the customer and revenue that
would otherwise be lost to chargebacks and unnecessary refunding.
