Submit a chargeback/inquiry response
When a customer of your merchants has an issue with a charge on their credit card, they can contact their bank to dispute the charge. The bank then makes a formal chargeback or inquiry for more information.
If the cardholder's bank issues a chargeback, the bank will immediately deduct the disputed amount from your account. You will also be charged a chargeback fee by the cardholder's bank. If the cardholder's bank makes an inquiry, they do not immediately take the disputed amount or a fee.
When receiving a chargeback/inquiry request, you can resolve the matter by directly contacting the customer, or submitting evidence regarding to the order directly from your admin dashboard.
Please ensure that each evidence file you upload do not exceed 5 MB in size.
When a new chargeback request from your customers is created, ShopBase will send notification emails to the store owner.

You can also filter orders with chargeback/inquiry requests by going to Orders > More filters and select Chargeback status and/or Inquiry status > Open so that you can check and submit evidence for these orders on time. This will ensure that the due date won't be missed and avoid possible loss dispute.
