In their words

Fight chargeback fraud. Save time and money. Chargebacks are tedious to rebut yet costly to ignore. Revenue lost from chargebacks can be won back, but the dispute process is time-consuming and inefficient. With one simple integration, Chargehound automates your entire dispute process. You can respond to all your chargebacks — instantly. Let us do the work — as soon as you receive a dispute, Chargehound will create and submit a comprehensive, customized response on your behalf. Instead of spending hours compiling disputes, you can focus on more impactful goals, like minimizing your chargebacks and maximizing your win rate.
