Chargeback

When a customer contacts their bank or card issuer to reverse a credit or debit card transaction, it's known as a chargeback. This usually happens when the customer suspects fraud, is unhappy with a product or service, or discovers an unauthorized charge. It enables the buyer to contest the transaction and ask for a refund without speaking with the seller directly.
