  • Recurring: This is a type of automatic and periodic transaction in regular instalments that take effect on a pre-set date when a subscription is made. The payment is initiated directly by the merchant with a pre-authorisation from the cardholder and executed repeatedly at specific time periods. Another type of recurrence is when data from a previously tokenised transaction is used to apply a new charge.

  • A chargeback is a mechanism created by banks to settle disputes about charges made to a credit or debit card. It is a way to protect the credit card holder from charges made without their consent. The merchant is responsible for any and all transactions processed through their account.
  • A claim is generated when the cardholder contacts his/her bank directly to notify that he/she does not recognise a charge made to his/her credit or debit card through his/her business. At that point, the issuing bank (cardholder's bank) creates a claim request to your business. This request is issued to the payment facilitator, in this case PAGUELO FACIL, which we proceed to communicate to the merchant involved.

There are several reasons why the merchant may receive a notice of complaint. The main or most common are as follows:

  • Charge not recognised (Fraud)
  • Fraudulent transaction
  • Duplicate charge
  • The product or service was not delivered
  • The product or service was not as expected
  • Unprocessed credit

The cardholder has a period of 120 days from the date on which the transaction was made to file a complaint. And 365 days from the date on which the transaction was made to request information about a purchase made with their credit card. If the merchant does not respond, the "Request" automatically becomes an undisputed claim (not open to dispute or argument to support the case).

When a claim is filed, PAGUELO FACIL immediately debits your PAGUELO FACIL account the sum of $ 64.20 USD (sixty four and 20/100 USD) equivalent to the penalty for each claim filed. Likewise, PAGUELO FACIL, proceeds with the retention of the total amount of the transaction in claim, until the resolution of the claim is obtained. This amount may be increased from time to time. Merchant hereby authorizes PAGUELO FACIL to debit without notice, from Merchant's account, the back charges and back charge penalty on a daily basis and if such collection is improper, agrees to immediately reimburse PAGUELO FACIL for any shortfall in the account that occurs as a result of such charges.

PAGUELO FACIL issues a formal notification with the details of the transaction to the email registered in the Portal on the same day that PAGUELO FACIL receives the claim from the issuing bank.

Upon receipt of formal notification from PAGUELO FACIL, the merchant may choose one of the following alternatives:

  • The merchant may provide all evidence necessary to dispute the claim.
  • The Merchant may accept the claim. In this case the money will be deducted from your available balance in your PAGUELO FACIL account. The case is closed and the merchant loses the claim.
  • The Merchant will have five (5) business days to send all documentation supporting the charge made. If no response is received from the merchant, PAGUELO FACIL will proceed with the immediate refund of the amount of the transaction in claim and the merchant will have lost the case.

Upon receipt of a complaint request, the merchant may do the following:

  • Contacting the cardholder: The merchant should find out why the claim has been filed, as claims are often created because the cardholder does not remember the charge.

Providing Evidence: The Merchant must submit any documentation or evidence it handles regarding the transaction in dispute. Some documents to send as evidence are:

  • Invoice
  • Transaction receipt
  • Waybill and proof of delivery (in case of physical product)
  • E-mail conversations
  • Charge confirmations

The evidence needed will depend on the reason for the claim. PAGUELO FACIL, through the initial notification of the claim, will indicate which are the necessary supports or proofs to dispute or represent the case. If evidence has NOT been provided within 5 working days, PAGUELO FACIL will consider by default that the merchant accepts the claim and the merchant will have lost the claim.

Claim resolution: In case the issuing bank (the cardholder's card bank) determines that the charge is legitimate, the status of the claim will change to "Won". In this case, the claim amount will be released to your PAGUELO FACIL account. Penalty charges are non-refundable. In case the acquiring bank determines that the charge was made improperly, the status of the claim will change to "Lost". In this case, the money is transferred back to the cardholder and the merchant will have forfeited the transaction amount.

The claim or chargeback process has 3 phases, which can take between 30 to 90 days.

  • Chargeback: This is how a claim or chargeback process is initiated against the transaction under claim.
  • Pre-arbitration: This is when the issuing bank indicates that the evidence submitted bythe merchant is not sufficient to support the transaction. During this phase, the merchant will have the opportunity to provide new evidence to help support the transaction. The Merchant will only have three (3) business days to send the information to PAGUELO FACIL.
  • Arbitration: This is when all the evidence is presented and the cardholder still refutes the claim or chargeback. At this point the decision is taken directly by the brands (VISA and MASTERCARD). This process carries an additional cost of $ 500.00 (five hundred and 00/100) which is borne by the Merchant and it is at the Merchant's discretion whether or not to proceed to this stage. If the Merchant chooses not to proceed to this stage PAGUELO FACIL will by default consider that the Merchant accepts the chargeback and the Merchant will have forfeited the claim or chargeback.

Transactions that are entered under the reason: Fraud or Failure to Acknowledge Transaction, go immediately to Arbitration and can only be represented under certain specified documentation such as:

  • Acknowledgement of the transaction by the cardholder with copy of the ID.
  • Credit card validation.

The merchant undertakes to provide PAGUELO FACIL with the documentation required by the bank at any time and which supports the fraudulent transactions carried out by the merchant's clients. Likewise, the merchant undertakes to provide PAGUELO FACIL with the documents required by the bank to support the fulfilment of any of the obligations contained in this Agreement.

Merchant agrees to retain all sales slips, credit vouchers and other transaction confirmations for at least one (1) year after issuance. Such documents or corresponding electronic files shall be stored in a manner that allows their retrieval and presentation in readable PDF format for at least 3 days after Merchant receives a request from PAGUELO FACIL, as a Card issuer may, over a period of time, request duplicate copies of the same sales receipt, Merchant must retain at least one readable copy of each card transaction for a full period. Failure to provide PAGUELO FACIL with the requested documentation within five (5) business days of receipt of such a request may result in the transaction being charged to Merchant and PAGUELO FACIL shall have the right to debit the account for the full amount of the transaction in question.

The Merchant is aware that the resolution of claims made by customers using PAGUELO FACIL payment methods is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the payment processors and issuers. The Merchant undertakes to comply faithfully with the decisions taken by the aforementioned payment processors and issuers.

The merchant expressly undertakes to comply faithfully with the decisions taken in the preceding paragraph.

PAGUELO FACIL will immediately withhold the total amount of the transaction that is registered as a claim from the available balance of the merchant's account, without requiring prior notification from PAGUELO FACIL.

In the event that the counterclaim is represented and a judgment is rendered in favour of the merchant, PAGUELO FACIL will return the amounts withheld. In the event that the claim is represented and a judgment is rendered against the merchant, PAGUELO FACIL reserves the right to definitively maintain the withholding of funds as a means of payment to the customer for a valid claim.

Merchant agrees to pay to PAGUELO FACIL, any fees or penalties resulting in Chargebacks that any Association imposes on PAGUELO FACIL and any other fees or penalties imposed by an Association with respect thereto as a result of any act of omission by Merchant. This provision includes any fees that may be imposed by PAGUELO FACIL on the merchant pursuant to this Agreement.

The Merchant must take all necessary measures to guarantee the veracity and authenticity of the payments received, expressly accepting that PAGUELO FACIL may terminate the present contract in the event that the Merchant incurs in more than 3 reversals or fraudulent payments in a period of thirty (30) days.

In the event of more than 1% (one percent) of claims versus gross sales in two consecutive months, PAGUELO FACIL may terminate this agreement immediately, without prejudice to the withholding of available funds for a period not exceeding 120 days, to meet any possible incoming claims after the closing of the transaction.

In the event that the merchant does not have sufficient funds in its account to meet any claims, claims or penalties, the merchant must immediately sign a promissory note issued by PAGUELO FACIL, where it assumes full responsibility for what is owed.

The Merchant and the Legal Representative shall be liable for all claims at the time that PAGUELO FACIL requires collection and the Merchant refrains from payment, PAGUELO FACIL may proceed legally and the Merchant and the Legal Representative shall be liable for payment plus any legal costs involved in the recovery process.

17. Account Restriction

These are temporary restrictions that PAGUELO FACIL places on yourthe merchant account, which result in you not being able to withdraw, send or receive money in your account. Having restrictions on an account does not imply that it is being used incorrectly as in most cases it is applied to maintain the security of the the merchant account and the funds in it.

Reasons causing account restrictions:

  • The account does not comply with all regulatory requirements mandated by PAGUELO FACIL, the card brands or our regulators.
  • The account has TWENTY PERCENT (20%) of transactions denied within a 30-day period.

If the the merchant account has been restricted this could include blocking funds from one or more transactions that are in the process of validation, up to temporary or permanent deactivation of the account, as well as reversal of withdrawals.

The time it takes to remove account restrictions varies depending on the situation.
