Dispute History Report

Go to Reports and then select Dispute History.

The Dispute History report displays all the disputes and retrievals received for your account, ordered by the incoming date. An individual dispute status will change based on both the dispute type and the actions subsequently taken by you, Qualpay, and the issuing bank.

Each dispute includes all the relevant information about the disputed transaction and the reason the cardholder reported to the card issuer. When you receive a dispute, you have an opportunity to challenge it (submit the appropriate evidence along with your case) or accept it. Select a row to view the dispute's detail.

The search criteria and a definition of the column headings of the report are below.

Note: If you do not have access to the Dispute History report and would like access, please contact the administrator for your account.

Filter disputes by using the filter icon. See how to configure reports for more information on customizing reports.
