How can Ukash help Merchants and Affiliates?

Ukash is a cash based system and Ukash vouchers are prepaid. This means that the key affiliate-merchant issues such as Chargebacks and payments can be managed effectively.

What is Chargeback and how does it affect a Merchant or Affiliate?

A Chargeback is when a cardholder complains to their card provider about an unauthorised transaction on their card and receives the payment back to their card.

From a merchants point of view, when chargebacks occur, what was perceived to be revenue has to be returned back to the bank which can have a knock-on effect on affiliates who get paid on a cost per sale or revenue share basis.

Merchants will usually give themselves a month before any payments are made out to affiliates and usually in this time the Chargebacks and fraud are identified and taken away from the affiliate's payment. If an affiliate consistently attracts chargeback customers then their relationship with the merchant can be jeopardised and this can result in the termination of the contract and loss of revenues.

Chargebacks, even though not a direct issue to an affiliate, indirectly affect the affiliate and can harm their long term earning potential. Chargebacks are a big issue for merchants and can cost them thousands a month. Merchants can also get fined by their payment providers for consistent chargeback activity which results in further revenue loss for all parties involved.
