🔍 Best Practices & Tips
Enable 3D Secure whenever possible - it can significantly lower chargeback risk.
Use a role-based email (like billing@ or support@) for disputes to ensure your team receives alerts.
Statement descriptor should clearly represent your business name to avoid confusion or chargebacks.
If the UI looks slightly different, note that the portal is updated periodically — check for similar settings under Payment Methods.
