Chargeback checklist

Use a chargeback checklist before you submit evidence.

Review the facts, proof, redactions, and evidence gaps that usually matter before sending a chargeback response through Shopify, Stripe, or another merchant platform.

Evidence checklist

What to collect before a chargeback response.

The checklist should make the response easier to review, not longer. Each item should support the dispute reason, clarify the timeline, or show what is still missing.

  • Order facts: amount, product or service, date, customer identifier, and reason code.
  • Delivery or fulfillment proof: tracking, completion record, usage proof, or access history.
  • Customer communication: support messages, refund request, cancellation request, or confirmation.
  • Refund and policy status: whether a refund was issued, denied, pending, or not requested.
  • Timeline: purchase, fulfillment, support contact, refund activity, and dispute notice.

Process

How it works.

Step 1

Redacted basics

Send the platform, dispute reason, deadline, and evidence you already have.

Step 2

Packet prepared

We organize the checklist into a summary, draft response, and missing-evidence notes.

Step 3

Merchant reviews and submits

You verify the facts and submit in Shopify, Stripe, or your payment platform yourself.

Redaction first

What not to send.

Send only safe facts

  • Platform, order number, deadline, dispute reason, and timeline
  • Relevant screenshots or notes with sensitive details removed
  • What you are unsure about before submission

Do not send

  • Passwords, login links, app access, API keys, or tokens
  • Full card numbers, bank details, tax IDs, or raw identity documents
  • Unredacted sensitive personal information

Questions

FAQ

Is this legal advice?

No. This is evidence organization support, not legal advice.

Do you submit the response?

No. The merchant reviews the packet and submits through their own platform.

Does a checklist guarantee a win?

No. Better organization can help with clarity and completeness, but no outcome is guaranteed.

Can this work for Shopify and Stripe?

Yes. The checklist is platform-neutral, with separate pages for Shopify and Stripe-specific searches.
