Well suited for addressing disputes before they become official chargebacks (PreventFlow). We've not yet started using the DisputeFlow to work chargebacks that have already come in. We still use our merchant processor's interface for that. I'd to see more incorporation of RDR into the online interface. Right now, we just receive spreadsheets. In the notifications section, I have set up notifications for chargeback and prevention reports but don't see anything for RDR. As the admin of Midigator, I'd like to have greater control over user management, particularly in setting up new users in our organization. There's nothing in the online interface with this.

  • When submitting a dispute, it stays pending for a long time - and we didn't get a notification of it closing out, nor a result of what the outcome was.
  • Going to DisputeFlow, it would be nice to have it automatically sorted with the newest chargeback on the top.
  • The daily emails in excel could be better formatted and easier to read.

Midigator does what we need and doesn't try to add a bunch of confusing extra functionality we don't need.

We currently have personnel to care for chargebacks. An administrator to keep track of all chargebacks and even retrieve a couple ones that Midigator misses to let us know about. The administrator also helps by notifying the company ahead of time when chargebacks are potentially coming through or about ones that are already chargebacks before Midigator notifies the company.

  • We've been able to use the data to pinpoint specific issues to correct to lower chargebacks.
  • We have seen an incredible difference in our chargeback rate since using Midigator's service. Our rates were often over 1% but now they are almost always below 0.4%. That is a huge difference!
