Chargeblast is chargeback prevention for high-growth businesses. It covers deflection, recovery, representment, a managed refund service, receipt management, PayPal disputes and embedded alerts, and states it reduces chargeback rates by up to 99% while recovering revenue lost to customer fraud.
The underlying job is unambiguously worth doing. Chargebacks cost far more than the disputed amount — there is a per-dispute fee regardless of outcome, and card networks impose monitoring programmes and penalties on merchants whose ratio climbs past a threshold, which can end a payment processing relationship entirely. A merchant sitting near that line has a genuine emergency, and deflection plus representment is the standard, effective response.
Understand the mechanism before reading the headline number. Deflection works largely by receiving an alert when a cardholder disputes and **refunding pre-emptively**, which resolves the dispute before it becomes a chargeback. That is the right trade when a chargeback would cost the fee plus the ratio damage — and it means you are paying out refunds you might otherwise have contested and won. ‘Up to 99%’ describes the ratio, not the money. Coverage also depends on which alert networks reach your card issuers, so ask about that specifically for your mix. No rates are published; pricing goes through a demo.
