You can either:

  • Accept the dispute: this will mean you automatically lose the dispute. The dispute will then be listed in the “lost” subsection and Stripe will charge you a small fee for the loss.

  • Counter the dispute: if you think the dispute isn’t valid, you can counter it and provide proof for why the dispute isn’t accurate. The customer’s bank will then decide whether you lose or win the dispute.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

How long is a dispute in the “in review” section?

The amount of time it takes for a customer’s bank to review and make a decision about the countered dispute depends on the bank. Plan for 30-45 days of review, but be aware that some cases can take up to 90 days, especially if escalated or sent to arbitration.

What is the time limit to respond to a dispute?

MyStudio gives you 8 days to respond to new disputes. However, always respond within 7 days of the dispute opening to avoid automatic loss, even if the network technically allows more time.

 

Note: Currently, you will need to initiate these responses from V1. For more information, check out our article here: Payment disputes - Stripe.
