WORKS WITH SHOPIFY PAYMENTS

Resolve card disputes before they become chargebacks.

Chargebackify watches your Shopify Payments disputes. When a bank raises an inquiry, the app finds the order it belongs to and refunds it inside the response window — so there is nothing left to file.

No monthly fee. You pay only when a chargeback is prevented.

WHAT IT NEEDS FROM YOU
Shopify Payments, and nothing else. There is no feed to subscribe to, no processor to connect and no code to add to your theme. Install it and the next dispute your store receives arrives in the app.

Four steps, and there is nothing left to file.

This is prevention, not dispute management. Nothing is contested after the fact, because the case is answered while the bank is still asking. A dispute that has already been filed is a different thing, and the app says so rather than refunding it.

01
Alert

The issuing bank raises an inquiry about a charge. Shopify Payments records it and passes it to Chargebackify.

02
Match order

The dispute arrives attached to the Shopify order it came from, so there is no lookup for you to do.

03
Auto refund

If it is under your threshold, the order is refunded inside the response window. If not, it waits for you.

04
Chargeback prevented

The inquiry is answered, so the bank has no chargeback to file — and no dispute fee is charged to you.

The same order, two very different weeks.

No dispute fee. Nothing is filed, so nothing is charged.
No chargeback on the account. An inquiry that is answered does not become one.
Nothing to write. No evidence to assemble, no deadline to diarise.

Protect more than the transaction.

A single refunded order is the small win. The real exposure is your standing with the payment networks.

Avoid chargeback fees

Every dispute carries a fixed fee whether you win it or not. Prevention removes the fee entirely.

Protect your ratio

Prevented disputes never count against your chargeback ratio, which matters more than the order value.

Reduce payout holds

Fewer disputes means less reason for a processor to open a reserve or delay your payouts.

Keep Shopify Payments

Stay clear of the thresholds that put merchant accounts into monitoring programs or shutdown.

You refund the order either way. The difference is what it costs you afterwards.

We are not going to pretend prevention gets you the sale back — it does not. Answering an inquiry means refunding the customer in full, and that is your money. What you keep is the dispute fee, and a chargeback that never lands on your account. Here is the same $129 order, worked through both ways.

THE INQUIRY BECOMES A CHARGEBACK
Order value withheld$129.00
Network dispute fee$15.00
Chargebackify fee$0.00
Counts toward your chargeback ratioYes
Out of pocket$144.00
THE INQUIRY IS ANSWERED WITH Chargebackify
Order refunded to the customer$129.00
Network dispute fee$0.00
Chargebackify fee (Visa)$19.00
Counts toward your chargeback ratioNo
Out of pocket$148.00
So on the cash alone, prevention costs $4 more on this order. That is the honest arithmetic on one $129 case, and any calculator that tells you otherwise is counting something it should not.

The reason to prevent it is the last row. A chargeback stays on your account whether you win it or lose it, and it is the ratio — not the order — that decides whether your processor opens a reserve, holds your payouts, or puts you into a monitoring program. That is also why the app has a threshold: above the value you set, nobody refunds anything without you, because at some order value the arithmetic stops being worth it and only you know where that is.

Built for the stores the networks watch most closely.

01 / HIGH-RISK
Merchants in monitoring

Already in a network monitoring program and need the ratio down before the next review window.

02 / SUBSCRIPTIONS
Recurring billing

Renewal charges customers forget about are the most common source of friendly fraud disputes.

03 / LONG LEAD TIME
Dropshipping and preorder

Long delivery windows create item-not-received claims. Early alerts let you cancel before the parcel ships.

04 / SCALE
High-volume DTC

At thousands of orders a day, disputes stop being a support task and become a treasury problem.

One screen for every dispute and what it cost you.

Shopify-native from install. It reads your orders and issues refunds through Shopify itself, so there is no middleware and nothing to keep in sync.

Refund rules. Set the order value below which a dispute resolves on its own. Everything above it comes to you.
On the order itself. A block on the Shopify order page shows whether that order has a dispute, and lets you resolve it there.
Case timeline. Every case records what arrived, what was decided and what was refunded, with the amounts.
Savings ledger. One row per prevented chargeback — order value, fee avoided, our fee, and what is left. Exports to CSV.

Pay only when a chargeback is prevented.

No subscription, no seat count, no platform fee. A dispute that arrives but is not prevented — because you chose not to refund it, or because the bank had already filed — costs you nothing.

No customer quotes, because we do not have customers yet.

Chargebackify is new. Every other page here describes what the app does, not what it has achieved, and this page is where the testimonials would normally go. Inventing them would tell you something true about us, just not the thing we would want it to.

INSTEAD, CHECK THIS
What it asks for

Three permissions: read your Shopify Payments disputes, read the order behind one, refund it. Shopify shows you the list at install, and you can compare it to what the app claims to do.

AND THIS
What it costs to find out

Nothing. Install it, leave automatic refunds off, and watch which disputes arrive and what the app would have done. It records every case whether or not you are paying.

AND THIS
How you leave

Uninstall. There is no contract and no minimum, billing stops with the app, and your dispute history is yours to export as CSV before you go.

It moves your money, so it asks for as little as possible.

Chargebackify is not in your payment flow. It reads disputes Shopify Payments has already recorded, and issues refunds through Shopify itself — so everything it does is scoped, logged, and visible in your own admin.

NO CARD NUMBERS NO CUSTOMER NAMES STORED REFUNDS ISSUED BY SHOPIFY SPEND CAP YOU APPROVE
Minimum permissions

Read your Shopify Payments disputes, read the order behind one, refund it. Nothing else is requested at install.

No card data stored

A card number never reaches the app, and neither does a customer name, address, phone or email. A case is identified by its order number.

Full audit trail

Every dispute, decision and refund is timestamped, and the savings ledger exports to CSV for your finance team.

You keep control

Set spend caps and review rules. Pause automation at any time without uninstalling.

STEP 1
Install from the App Store

One click, no developer, no code in your theme.

STEP 2
Set your refund rules

Choose what refunds itself and what comes to you for review.

STEP 3
Wait for your next dispute

There is nothing to enrol in. The next dispute Shopify Payments records for your store arrives in the app.

Questions merchants ask first.

Still unsure? Talk to us before installing.

Is this dispute management or prevention? −

Prevention. Chargebackify acts on inquiries — the stage where the issuing bank is asking about a charge and has not filed a chargeback. Refunding answers the question, so there is no case to fight and no evidence to submit. A dispute that arrives already filed is shown to you and left alone, because by then the money is withheld and refunding it would cost you the order twice.

Do I lose the revenue on a refunded order? +

Yes, the order value is refunded. What you keep is the chargeback fee, the ratio, and your payout schedule. Set refund rules so only orders under your own threshold auto-refund.

How long does setup take? +

Install from the Shopify App Store, approve permissions, and set your refund rules. Most stores are live in under ten minutes with no developer work.

Which payment providers are supported? +

Shopify Payments, on Visa and Mastercard. That is where the disputes come from, so a store on another gateway has nothing for the app to read. If you already subscribe to a third-party pre-dispute alert feed, it can send alerts to the app as well.

What happens with duplicate alerts? +

They are detected, matched to the existing alert, and never billed. You only pay once per protected transaction.

Can I review alerts instead of auto-refunding? +

Yes. Rules can route any alert to manual review, with the network deadline shown so you know how long you have to act.

Does a refund still count as a chargeback? +

Not if it is issued at the inquiry stage. Answering an inquiry with a refund resolves it before a chargeback is filed, so no chargeback is recorded. Once one has been filed, refunding does not undo it — which is exactly why the app refuses to refund those.

What if the alert arrives after the order shipped? +

You can still refund to prevent the dispute, or route the alert to review and decide case by case. The timeline shows the network deadline on every alert.

Will my customers know Chargebackify is involved? +

No. The refund appears as a normal Shopify refund from your store, and the customer keeps dealing with you.

How is this different from fraud filters? +

Fraud filters score orders before checkout. Chargebackify works after the sale, on transactions the issuing bank has already flagged for dispute.

Can I use it alongside a dispute response tool? +

Yes, and they do not overlap. Chargebackify only acts before a chargeback is filed. Anything that becomes one is left entirely to your existing response workflow — the app will not touch it.

See what your next dispute would have cost you.

Install Chargebackify, leave automatic refunds switched off, and watch the cases arrive. It records every one whether or not you are paying, so you can see what protection would have done before you turn it on.

Common questions

Not answered here? Ask us directly or read the full FAQ.

What is a chargeback alert?

An inquiry is the stage before a chargeback: the cardholder has raised the charge with their bank, and the bank is asking about it rather than filing. Shopify Payments records it and passes it to the app. Answering it inside the response window means no chargeback is recorded against your account.

How is prevention different from fighting chargebacks?

Representment fights a dispute that has already been filed. Even when you win, the chargeback still counts toward the ratio your acquirer monitors. Prevention resolves the case before it is filed, so it never enters that number.

How long does setup take?

Install it, walk the four setup steps and set your threshold. There is no processor to connect — it reads the disputes Shopify Payments already records. Leave automatic refunds off for the first couple of weeks if you want to watch what it would have done before it does it.

What does Chargebackify cost?

There is no monthly fee. You pay $19 per prevented Visa chargeback and $25 per prevented Mastercard chargeback, capped at $500 per 30 days. A dispute that is not prevented is not billed.

Chargeback prevention infrastructure, starting with Shopify. Alerts, refunds and ratio monitoring in one place.
