Better Together: QuickRefund + Ethoca

Ethoca chargeback alerts intercept disputes at the earliest stage. QuickRefund ensures every chargeback that progresses is managed, responded to, and resolved in your favor.

What Ethoca Does Best

Mastercard Ethoca provides real-time chargeback alerts through direct collaboration with card issuers. When a cardholder initiates a dispute, Ethoca alerts notify you within hours, giving you the opportunity to issue a refund before the chargeback is filed. This prevents many disputes from becoming formal chargebacks and protects your chargeback ratio.

What QuickRefund Adds

QuickRefund picks up where Ethoca alerts leave off. For chargebacks that bypass the alert system or progress to formal disputes, QuickRefund automates evidence compilation, manages representment deadlines, and optimizes your response strategy using data-driven insights. Together, you cover the full chargeback lifecycle from prevention to recovery.

Why Merchants Pair QuickRefund with Ethoca Alerts

Ethoca chargeback alerts are powerful on their own. Combined with QuickRefund's dispute management, you build a chargeback defense that covers every stage.

Full-Lifecycle Chargeback Protection

Ethoca catches disputes at the alert stage. QuickRefund manages everything after. No chargeback falls through the cracks between prevention and representment.

Multi-Network Coverage

While Mastercard Ethoca delivers deep coverage within Mastercard's ecosystem, QuickRefund provides dispute management for Visa, American Express, Discover, and all other card networks your customers use.

Automated Evidence Compilation

QuickRefund automatically assembles compelling evidence packages for each dispute, including transaction records, shipping data, and customer interaction logs that strengthen your representment case.

Deadline Management

Never miss a chargeback response deadline. QuickRefund tracks every dispute timeline and ensures responses are submitted with optimal evidence before cutoff dates.

Root Cause Analytics

Go beyond individual disputes. QuickRefund analyzes your chargeback patterns to identify systemic issues, helping you address the root causes that even Ethoca alerts can't prevent.

Revenue Recovery

Every chargeback that bypasses Ethoca alerts costs you revenue. QuickRefund's optimized representment process recovers funds from disputes you would otherwise write off.
