Signifyd has announced the general availability of its newest product – Signifyd Chargeback Recovery – to allow merchants to address every type of chargeback. Retailers enjoy the certainty that the buying experience they’re providing consumers is protected with Signifyd’s customer-first, end-to-end solution, not just from fraud, but also from abuse, process issues and revenue loss.

While consumer abuse, sometimes called “friendly fraud,” amounts to more than $15 billion in annual chargeback losses, merchants need to be careful not to overreact and blindly fight all chargebacks. Bad customer experiences can cost companies a lot of money. In a Signifyd survey, 38.2 percent of consumers said they would give a retailer one more chance after a single bad experience before turning their back on the business. Nearly 15 percent are zero-tolerance shoppers. One bad experience, which could be an unwarranted chargeback dispute, and they’re gone.

“During business reviews with our merchants, we noticed that managing the remaining, non-fraud chargebacks was still a significant issue for many merchants,” said Gayathri Somanath, group product manager at Signifyd. “Analyzing the problem further, we believed that we could streamline the process for them to ensure their customers are treated well, while abusive consumers are stopped and revenue lost to them is recovered. We tested various iterations with beta customers until we got it right and are excited to announce its general availability today.”

While fraud fueled by cybercrime and data breaches needs to be intercepted by detecting stolen identities, managing other chargebacks requires a thorough triage to differentiate between valid disputes coming from legitimate buyers and those coming from abusive consumers. Each case then needs to be followed up appropriately – an extremely time-consuming and complicated process.
