If you wish to defend a chargeback you've received, you need to send the appropriate request to [email protected]. Please see below more details about the scenarios when you can defend the chargeback.

If we do not receive any request from you within 10 business days from the date of the dispute, the case will be considered accepted.

Please note that for chargebacks with the reason 'Non-authorized/Fraudulent transaction,' where the payment was processed without 3D Secure (3DS), the chargeback will be accepted and cannot be disputed.
