3. Basics of Chargeback Management Retrieval vs. Chargeback • The Issuer’s request for a copy of a transaction receipt. A response is required to address the dispute. If the cardholder wins the dispute, it becomes a chargeback and the funds of the transaction will debit at that time. A dispute initiated by the cardholder or issuer and a recall of funds (debit). Depending on the reason for the dispute and rules associated, merchants have re-presentment rights and the opportunity to attempt to remedy the dispute for many chargebacks although not all. Innocent • Guilty until proven innocent. • until proven guilty

Could be electronic (email or online access), fax, or letter. • Merchants should diligently follow card brand rules to minimize their risk of dispute losses.

5. Best Practices • Always process Chip Cards as Chip Transactions • Non-Chip Cards — Swipe the card through the terminal • Declines — Ask for another form of payment, do not re-swipe • Match the last four numbers on the slip • Request/Check the signature • Keyed/Manual entry transactions • Check the expiration date • Make an imprint • Face-to-face deliveries require imprint and signature

6. Liability Shift – Chip Cards and Chargebacks New Rule: Process Chip Cards as Chip Transactions Merchants that do not have a terminal or POS system capable of reading EMV cards will be responsible for chargebacks and fraudulent card acceptance beginning October 2015. This appliesonly when an EMV card is presented at the POS; otherwise, the current liability responsibility remains in place. Best practices: • In order to protect your business from chargebacks on chip cards, you need to be at leastChip enabled • When processing a chip card, follow the instructions on the terminal • You are not protected if a chip card is swiped or keyed

7. Chip Card Chargebacks Are On the Rise Volumes are increasing as more chip cards are issued. Large Metro Cities, Large issuing banks. • Restaurants • Ecommerce (Gift Cards) • Micro Payments – Vending • If your restaurant POS system has not deployed an integrated or semi-integrated EMV solution, consider going to a non-integrated solution for the time being (ex: standalone credit card terminal). • Consider your environment and the amount of dollar threshold you are willing to risk.
