Dispute resolution cycle

How the Dispute Resolution Cycle Works

A dispute starts when a customer challenges a transaction, then moves through structured stages with deadlines, evidence requirements, status changes, and final decisions. The outcome depends on accuracy, timing, and how consistently the process is executed.

Akurateco processes disputes in its customizable infrastructure in real time, using transaction data and operational methods within one system with centralized management and scalable capabilities. This helps teams consistently track cases, reduce missed deadlines, and standardize handling across markets, while maintaining security controls.

Why the Dispute Resolution Cycle Matters for Your Business

A structured dispute cycle reduces missed deadlines and improves evidence quality. It lowers operational friction for support and finance services teams by keeping cases organized and auditable. It can also reduce operational costs during early building by cutting manual follow-ups and repeated escalations. Over time, consistent dispute handling helps protect payment performance and keep dispute-driven fees more predictable. 

Akurateco lets teams build dispute workflows in one orchestration layer with centralized visibility and tracking, so developers don’t need separate tools or custom logic per processor for each payment project. As a result, disputes are handled faster and more consistently, deadlines are easier to meet, and reporting stays unified across providers and markets.

FAQ

How long does the dispute resolution cycle usually take?

It varies by scheme, dispute type, and region, and deadlines are strict. Akurateco helps by centralizing dispute signals and status handling (including chargeback notifications), so teams are less likely to miss key steps.

What improves dispute win rates?

Fast action, correct case handling, and consistent decision logic matter most. Akurateco highlights automation (including ML-based classification and issuer-specific logic) and a unified workflow that reduces manual effort and supports better outcomes.

How do disputes affect payment performance?

Higher dispute volume increases fees and can raise risk pressure from providers and schemes. Akurateco positions dispute monitoring/management as part of its operational layer, enabling teams to spot patterns and respond consistently.

Can dispute workflows be standardized across multiple providers?

Yes, when disputes aren’t split across multiple dashboards. Akurateco allows teams to view and act on disputes across multiple payment systems in a dashboard and to manage related operations via a single payment API.
