According to McKinsey, online fraud is growing twice as fast as transaction volumes, with global payment fraud set to hit $400 billion in the next decade. By 2026, losses from card-not-present fraud are expected to top $28.1 billion—a 40% spike from $20 billion in 2023.
The number of chargeback transactions globally is expected to reach 337 million—a 42% jump from 2023.
On top of that, first-party (friendly) fraud is predicted to make up 75% of all fraud incidents faced by digital goods merchants.
While fraud is a serious challenge for merchants, it’s just one part of the bigger problem:
- Revenue loss and fees: Disputes lead to direct revenue loss from reversed payments and incur additional fees from acquiring banks and payment providers, cutting into profit margins and posing significant financial strain.
- Manual workload and limited automation: Handling disputes often requires time-intensive manual processes due to limited automation, pulling resources away from growth and increasing the chance of costly human errors.
- Complex guidelines and expertise requirement: Navigating the complex and varying dispute rules across payment networks requires deep domain knowledge, which is difficult to maintain and results in inconsistent win rates.
- Low win rates: Many merchants face discouragingly low win rates on disputes, making the process feel frustrating and expensive, leading to less investment in resolving them.
- Fragmented processes across banks and providers: Each bank or payment provider has its own set of dispute rules, creating a fragmented dispute management experience that complicates response standardization and increases workload.
As fraudulent transactions rise, the need for streamlined, effective dispute handling becomes crucial to protect merchants’ profits and ensure sustainable growth. Addressing this urgent need, Solidgate has introduced its Dispute Representment solution, designed to transform how digital businesses manage disputes.
