Chargebase Launches to Help Merchants Cut Chargebacks and Give Easy Access to Verifi and Ethoca Alerts
Surrey, UK, Feb 03, 2026—Chargebase, a new chargeback-prevention platform built for high-growth e-commerce and SaaS businesses, today announces its official launch. Designed to solve an expensive and existential problem for merchants – chargebacks – Chargebase gives companies instant access to Verifi and Ethoca alerts in a single, easy-to-use platform with automated workflows and transparent pricing.
Chargebacks have long been a persistent cost factor for merchants. When a customer disputes a payment, businesses not only lose the transaction amount, but also the product, fulfillment costs, and chargeback fees, while risking damage to their merchant account standing.
“Verifi and Ethoca alerts are highly effective in letting you refund a transaction before it becomes a chargeback. But accessing them traditionally meant dealing with multiple vendors, complex integrations, and paying premium fees. Chargebase was built to fix this, with the idea to make chargeback prevention accessible to everyone.”

Chargeback Prevention Accessible to Every Merchant
Chargebase offers a simple, unified way for merchants to prevent disputes before they turn into chargebacks. Through real-time alerts triggered the moment a customer initiates a dispute with their bank, merchants can issue a quick refund and avoid a costly chargeback entirely.
With Chargebase, merchants can:
Reduce chargebacks Protect merchant accounts from exceeding the 0.9–1% chargeback threshold Eliminate manual dispute workflows, reducing operational overhead Scale confidently, without fear of losing payment processing due to chargeback ratios A Platform Built for Speed and Automation
Unlike traditional providers that simply relay alerts, Chargebase automates the alert-resolution process end-to-end. The platform matches alerts to orders, handles backend communication with Verifi and Ethoca, and reduces the manual steps merchants normally have to take.
Key differentiators include:
Automation-first architecture that minimizes manual processing Unified access to both Verifi and Ethoca networks in one platform Flexible configuration – custom workflows, notification preferences, and integrations shaped around each merchant’s operations Transparent pricing accessible to startups, mid-market, and scaling brands Flexible Pricing Designed for Growth
Chargebase uses a simple, transparent pay-per-alert model that ensures merchants only pay when the platform actually helps them avoid or resolve a dispute. Plans depend on the network, with no setup fees, monthly minimums, or long-term commitments.
Importantly, merchants are charged only for valid alerts – double alerts and false alerts are never billed. This structure makes enterprise-grade chargeback prevention accessible to startups and scaling businesses alike, without the heavy upfront costs or opaque pricing.
Availability
Chargebase is now available to merchants of all sizes. The platform already supports over 20,000 merchants. For more information, visit chargebase.co.
