Why it happens
- The cardholder refused a payout sent to their card.
- Local rules did not allow the card to receive the credit.
Visa13.8Customer dispute
Original Credit Transaction Not Accepted
Money was pushed to the card (an original credit transaction, used for payouts and transfers), and the cardholder did not or could not accept it.
What to send to fight it
- Proof the cardholder asked for or agreed to the payout.
- The payout record with its date and amount.
- Proof the credit was accepted or already returned.
How to prevent it
- Get the cardholder’s agreement before sending a payout to their card.
- Check that the card can receive credits before sending one.
