Did you know over 15% of falsely declined transactions come from actual paying customers?

The cost of a false decline isn’t just the lost transaction.

It’s the loss of trust, the support ticket, the churned customer, and the missed lifetime value.

Join us this Wednesday for a deeper conversation about the real impact of chargebacks and false declines—and how subscription leaders can build smarter defenses without compromising conversions.

This is not a generic fraud talk—it's built for the nuances of recurring businesses.
