5 Steps To Stop Chargebacks From Haunting Your Business
If you’ve ever looked into accepting online credit card payments (and chances are that you have, the “Pay” in “PayLane” isn’t there just for funzies), you probably fear chargebacks more than a one-on-one meeting with your mother in law. That’s what friendly fraud is – a monster in the closet that you never knew about. For merchants, processing card not present transactions (so basically, all online credit card payments) the risk of receiving chargebacks is daunting, and rightly so, since it can be quite costly. But there is only so much that you as a merchant can do to protected yourself against them – sure, you probably have the friendliest customer support team in the whole wide world and a well worded terms of service agreement, but is that enough?
Well, it is.. sometimes. The biggest risk for any online retailer is selling non tangible goods, which are becoming more and more popular with every minute. Internet stores are basically flooded with all things digital, whether it’s a subscription to a magazine or that awesome new MP3 that’s stuck in the back of your head.

That is, until the bubble grew to enormous sizes in 2013, at one point reaching over $1200. But what does that mean for the future of Bitcoin? That’s what we’re going to discuss briefly.
Is a PayPal account enough to sell globally?
I have a PayPal account – is that enough to accept payments from customers all over the world?
Many in the Internet world believe that having a PayPal account is all you need to accept payments in any part of the globe, well you might need to have some type of a card too and that’s it. Surely, now everyone from this planet will be able to pay for our services.
True or false? Well, yes and no, that depends.
This world is a very diverse one. People live in different countries, speak different languages, and more often than not, use different ways of making a payment. This goes for the offline world just as much as the online one.
