# Summary

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Is Telr PCI DSS compliant?" onClick={() => posthog.capture('Accordion Clicked', { title: "Is Telr PCI DSS compliant?" })}>
    The **Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)** is an information security standard for organizations that handle branded credit cards from major card schemes.

    The PCI Standard is mandated by the card brands and administered by the **Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council**. The standard was created to increase controls around cardholder data to reduce credit card fraud.

    **Telr** is PCI DSS compliant. The certificate can be accessed [here](https://cashfreelogo.cashfree.com/website/pdf/Cashfree-PCI-DSS-COC.pdf).

    While PCI DSS compliance is a pre-requisite for payment acceptance, we have gone a step further and incorporated a very robust **Risk Management System** developed with help from **PayPal**.

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="What is a Chargeback?" onClick={() => posthog.capture('Accordion Clicked', { title: "What is a Chargeback?" })}>
    Businesses accepting payments via cards may face a situation where a **chargeback request** is raised for a refund to the customer.
    **What is a chargeback?**
    A chargeback is a request for the return of funds to a consumer, initiated by the consumer’s card-issuing bank.
    It serves as a form of consumer protection against fraudulent activities committed by both merchants and individuals.

    > **Note:** It is best to avoid chargebacks as banks and card networks can label your business as high-risk. A high number of chargebacks may lead to banks holding remittances or banning your business’s online payment services.

    **Key Parties Involved in a Chargeback**

    * **Cardholder:** The owner of the card involved in the transaction.
    * **Merchant:** The party who sold the goods or services being disputed.
    * **Issuer:** The bank that issued the card to the cardholder.
    * **Acquirer:** The bank tasked with acquiring payment on the merchant’s behalf.
    * **Card Association/Scheme:** The card brands (e.g., Visa, Mastercard) overseeing the process.
    * **Payment Gateway:** The payment gateway facilitating the payment.

    **Reasons for a Chargeback Request**
    A chargeback request may be raised for various reasons, such as:

    * Service or product not received.
    * The product doesn’t match the description or is damaged.

    **How Does the Chargeback Process Work?**

    1. The **cardholder** (Ms. X) disputes a transaction by contacting the **card issuer** (e.g., SBI).

    * The issuer contacts the **acquirer** (e.g., HDFC Bank) via the same network used for the transaction.
    * The acquirer reaches out to the **payment gateway** (e.g., Telr), which then contacts the **merchant** (e.g., merchant.com) for details.

    2. The merchant is given a **turnaround time** to respond.

    * If no response is provided, the chargeback will be ruled in favor of the cardholder.

    3. After submitting proof, banks take **21 to 45 days** (representation time) to conclude.

    4. The cardholder has **90-120 days** to raise a chargeback request.

    5. If a chargeback occurs, the disputed amount will be **blocked** from the merchant's unsettled funds and will be released or refunded based on the outcome.

    **Chargeback Scenarios**

    **Scenario 1: The merchant decides to respond**
    The merchant must provide evidence related to the transaction, such as:

    * Email conversations
    * Invoices

    This proof is passed to the **issuer (e.g., SBI)** for review.

    1. **If the issuer accepts the proof:**

    * The chargeback request is declined, but the cardholder can still raise a **Second Presentment, Second Chargeback (Mastercard)** or **Pre-Arbitration (Visa)**.

    2. **If the issuer rejects the proof:**

    * The chargeback is ruled valid, and funds are reversed to the cardholder’s account.

    **Scenario 2: The merchant decides not to respond**

    * The chargeback is automatically ruled in favor of the cardholder, and the amount is reversed.

    **Second Presentment, Second Chargeback, or Pre-Arbitration**
    If the initial chargeback is won by the merchant, the customer can raise the dispute again.

    * The **merchant must respond** with all possible evidence.
    * **If the merchant does not respond:** The chargeback will favor the cardholder, and funds will be reversed.

    **Documents Required to Dispute a Chargeback**
    Merchants should keep the following documents ready to tackle any chargeback:

    * **Proof of delivery:** Tracking numbers, shipping receipts, etc.

    > **Pro Tip:** Prepare these documents from day one to efficiently handle potential chargebacks.

    **Invoice copy**: This should include your company name, price, and description of the product, date, customer’s name and address, date.

    **Order confirmation email**: This email provides customers with post-purchase reassurance. It should mandatorily include confirmation of your customer’s request (booking, registration, subscription and order) and the order summary.

    **Tracking details**: Shipment tracking details provided by the courier delivery company (Not applicable for all).

    Finally, we are near the end of the chargeback process. The **issuer reviews the chargeback claim** and the merchant's evidence. Each card network requires specific information to prove or disprove a dispute. This information is typically listed in the network’s rules and regulations.

    Let’s say the merchant wins a chargeback. The cardholder could still dispute the outcome. This takes on various names depending on the card network. For example, Visa calls this **Pre-Arbitration**, while Mastercard calls it a **Second Chargeback**. However, the process is essentially the same, as detailed below:

    **Level 1/Phase 1: Chargeback**\
    The initial phase where the cardholder disputes the transaction.

    **Level 2/Phase 2: Second Presentment, Second Chargeback, or Pre-Arbitration**\
    This gives the acquirer and the issuer a second chance to resolve the dispute. An issuer may issue pre-arbitration for several reasons, including:

    * A reason code change.
    * The cardholder offers new information.
    * The issuer believes the acquirer’s evidence does not disprove the dispute.
    * Terms and Conditions or Return Policies were not properly disclosed during the transaction.

    **Level 3/Phase 3: Arbitration**\
    Explicit time limits exist for issuers and acquirers to file for and respond to arbitration chargebacks. For example, Mastercard gives issuers and acquirers **45 days** to file. However, documents must be submitted well in advance to allow for thorough review.

    For more information on arbitration rates, refer to the [link](https://chargebacks911.com/arbitration-chargeback/).

    There are **151 reason codes** used to categorize chargebacks across Visa, Mastercard, and American Express.

    Reason codes can be grouped into five main categories:

    * **Fraud/No Authorization**
    * **Cancel Recurring Billing**
    * **Products/Services**
    * **Liability Shift**
    * **Others**

    > **Note:** Fraud/No Authorization chargebacks account for the largest percentage of disputes, followed by Cancel Recurring Billing and Products/Services disputes. Liability Shift and Other chargebacks represent a smaller percentage.

    For a detailed breakdown, refer to the [link](https://chargeback.com/5-chargeback-reason-code-categories/).

    **As a business, how can I avoid chargebacks?**

    * Cardholders often have an advantage as banks and credit card companies prioritize consumer protection.
    * Always maintain proof/evidence to challenge disputes. Store these documents in an easily accessible location, like a desktop folder or Google Drive.
    * Respond promptly to disputes and chargebacks. If you miss the stipulated time frame, banks automatically process the chargeback.
    * Be prepared with an action plan to handle chargebacks efficiently.

  <Accordion title="What are High Risk Transactions & High Risk Merchants" onClick={() => posthog.capture('Accordion Clicked', { title: "What are High Risk Transactions & High Risk Merchants" })}>
    **What are high-risk transactions?**

    A particular transaction that may have the potential to attract a customer dispute or chargeback is identified by Telr as well as banking partners and marked as a high-risk transaction. The payment to the merchant against such a transaction is put on hold until the issue is resolved.

    **Who are high-risk merchants?**\
    As a payment gateway, Telr generally settles the collected amount within T+1\* or T+2\* days. However, some merchants may not qualify for the traditional payment processing agreements due to the inherent risk based on the nature of the business.

    In addition to the line of business, there may be instances where Telr receives frequent escalations from consumers or banks about the genuineness of transactions or financial credibility, based on risk analysis. In such cases, Telr may mark the business as a high-risk merchant and temporarily suspend the traditional payment settlement process.

    **High-risk merchants at the time of onboarding**\
    If the nature of the business is seen as risky, to protect the interest of the paying consumer, Telr monitors the merchant for a certain period after onboarding. During this period, all settlements by the high-risk merchant shall be subject to the submission of Proof of Delivery. Once the proofs are submitted, the settlements are processed. The time frame of monitoring may vary from merchant to merchant and scenario to scenario, and will be decided by Telr at the time of onboarding.

    **What are the documents required to prove delivery?**\
    As proof of delivery, you can share ANY ONE of the following supporting documents:

    1. **Invoice Copy**: Every invoice should include your company name, price, and description of the product, date, customer’s name and address, and transaction date.
    2. **Order Confirmation Email**: Confirmation emails provide customers with post-purchase reassurance. It should mandatorily include confirmation of your customer request (booking, registration, subscription, and order) and the order summary.
    3. **Tracking Details**: Shipment tracking details provided by the courier delivery company. (Please note that this may not be applicable for all).

    The above-mentioned supporting documents are general proofs we request. Depending on your business/line of business (LOB), we may ask for other details such as:

    * **Customer Signed Proof of Delivery**: A customer-signed copy of proof of delivery.
    * **Confirmation Email from a Customer**: An email from the customer confirming the delivery of the product or service.
    * **Customer-Signed Copy of Invoice**: A signed copy of the invoice from the customer.

  <Accordion title="What is the checkout experience offered by Telr's PG like?" onClick={() => posthog.capture('Accordion Clicked', { title: "What is the checkout experience offered by Telr\'s PG like?" })}>
    It is quite critical for a payment gateway to offer a **seamless experience** to the customers. Multiple redirects and ugly pop-ups lead to a confusing checkout experience and end up eroding the customer's confidence. A lot of websites do offer a beautiful checkout experience, but this lot is limited to big technology houses with abundant manpower.

    We at Telr have carefully tried to solve this problem. We offer multiple ways to integrate our payment gateway and render a seamless checkout experience to customers. Two basic aspects of our UI integration are:

    * **No Redirects**\
      Customer experiences the checkout flow on your website without navigating to any third-party page.

    * **Custom UI**\
      You own the look and feel of the checkout flow, or you can also use our ready-made beautiful UI components.

  {/*<Accordion title="What is Third-Party Validation Feature for BFSI Sector Businesses?" onClick={() => posthog.capture('Accordion Clicked', { title: "What is Third-Party Validation Feature for BFSI Sector Businesses?" })}>
          **What is Third Party Validation? Why is it important?**

        Merchants in securities, broking, and mutual funds operating in the BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) sector are prone to cybercrimes, asset appropriation, identity thefts, money laundering, accounting frauds, etc. To reduce the risk, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has laid out guidelines for these merchants.

        As per the SEBI guidelines, all payments to such businesses must be made by their customers exclusively from pre-registered bank accounts. A pre-registered bank account is the one the customer shared during enrollment for schemes offered by businesses in these sectors.

        **Introducing Third-Party Validation feature by Telr**  
        Telr now supports Third-Party Validation on Payment Gateway. Using Telr’s Third-Party Validation feature, businesses can comply with the SEBI guidelines by ensuring that payments are made only from customers' registered bank accounts.

        Some of the primary use cases of Third-Party Validation feature include:

        - **BFSI sector** - Brokers and other online businesses can now sign up for Telr services and securely transact with customers in real-time.
        - **Loan repayments** - Merchants in the loan repayment sector can use Third-Party Validation to prevent discrepancies in payments and dispute cases.

        **Features**  
        When a customer transacts with the Telr Payment Gateway (with the TVP feature enabled), their bank account number or CRN (Customer Relationship Number) is mapped to lock the transaction, ensuring the payment is processed only from their registered bank account.

        **Advantages**

        - TPV is compliant with SEBI guidelines.
        - It serves as a one-stop solution for merchants in the BFSI sector to meet compliance requirements and start transacting securely with their customers.

        **Benefits**  
        When you enable the TVP feature on your Telr Payment Gateway, Telr matches the account number provided by the customer during registration against the account used for the transaction. If a non-registered account number is used, Telr marks the transaction as FAILED and provides an appropriate failure reason.

        To know more about the feature and how it can help your business, contact your Cashfree Account manager. If you are new to Cashfree, please [contact us here](https://telr.cashfree.com/merchants/signup). We would love to talk to you.
