How Chargebacks Work

A chargeback is similar to a refund but it is handled by your bank and was originally intended to fight fraudulent charges. Chargebacks are still used when charges are fraudulent, they can also be used if you were overcharged or if you never received your order.

The cardholder who disputes a charge is expected to contact the merchant, if the issue cannot be resolved with the merchant then a chargeback can be requested.
