Chargebacks Are Costing Businesses Billions in 2025
Chargebacks are on the rise, with global chargeback volumes expected to increase by 24% between 2025 and 2028, reaching a staggering 324 million transactions annually. For merchants and financial institutions, the true cost of a chargeback goes far beyond the disputed amount. It includes chargeback fees, lost merchandise, operational costs, and even the risk of higher payment processing fees if chargeback rates exceed industry thresholds.
