Monitor. Measure. Manage.Measuring concrete slump with a metal cone is officially old-fashioned. Ready mix concrete producers can now shave off priceless minutes from the process of measuring and testing concrete on site. Instead, they can constantly measure and adjust the slump, and monitor the water content of concrete as it travels from the plant to the job site.In this Episode, the team from Verifi help us understand how this management tool is helping with sustainability and the bottom line.

The last chance a merchant has to stop a chargeback from happening is when the cardholder is on the phone with their bank asking for one. Unfortunately, the merchant is rarely involved in these conversations. While the bank may try to guide cardholders toward investigating an unfamiliar transaction on their end, or resolving a product complaint directly with the merchant, they don't always have enough information to prevent every invalid chargeback.Visa hopes to address this problem with Order Insight, a collaboration tool from Verifi. Can merchants make effective use of Order Insight to provide issuers with purchase details in time to stop chargebacks?Full Text:https://www.chargebackgurus.com/blog/order-insight©Chargeback Gurus 2021Production: Emily WoodwardNarration: Sarah Rife

One of the privileges of using a card to make a payment is the ability to dispute that charge should something go wrong. Maybe you ordered one garden rake but got charged for two. Perhaps you ordered a sweater and, as my colleague Allen Weinberg puts it, “got shipped a box of rocks.” Or you discover a charge that you didn’t make on your card account and believe it’s fraudulent. In all those cases, the dispute process involves a chargeback. The cardholder disputes the charge, the issuer credits the customer for the amount of that charge if it’s an obvious mistake or fraud, and, depending upon the chain of liability rules and the type of transaction, one party—the issuer, the acquirer, or the merchant—will have to bear the cost of the chargeback. For merchants, just getting a chargeback message is a cost in the form of a fee paid to its acquirer. How does $5 and (way) up sound? Chargebacks, as a payments cost, are no financial joke. The card system also views the chargeback rate—the percentage of transactions that result in a chargeback—as a leading indicator of poor merchant behavior. Once a merchant’s chargeback rate approaches one percent of its transactions, the merchant’s acquirer or PSP is going to put it on notice. If the merchant doesn’t lower that rate pronto the merchant could lose the ability to accept card payments. The chargeback process is also a cost to issuers who are generally the party first called by the unhappy customer (issuers will often ask the customer if she or he has called the merchant, too). In other words, chargebacks are a result of something going wrong and they can be a costly hassle for everyone because, for many stakeholders, chargeback handling is still dealt with manually. In this Episode 99 of Payments on Fire® we talk with Rick Lynch, VP of Business Development from Verifi, about the impact of chargebacks on merchants and issuers. He updates us on rule changes by Visa and Mastercard. And he addresses the process and techniques needed to handle these post-authorization events. While only mentioned in passing during the episode, Verifi is being acquired by Visa, in another example of expansion by card network operators into adjacent payment ecosystem roles.
Rick Lynch is the senior vice president for business development at Verifi. He got into the payments industry in 1999, and has been innovating in the space ever since. We sat down with Rick on this week’s episode of Payments Innovation to learn more about what Verifi is doing to shake up the industry and equip business owners to take control of their chargebacks. They’re creating post-authorization tools to help reduce risk and loses after the sale by preventing and fighting chargebacks, preventing customer disputes, and any other negative events that happen after the sale. While most of the vendors you see in the marketplace today are really focused on before-the-sale, Verifi is focused on the opposite--and it’s really working out in their favor.
We haven't done a whole lot of work on this show regarding chargebacks or the new approaches to authentication. How does fintech improve the conflict resolution process on credit card payments? Total costs associated with chargebacks can add up to nearly 10 percent of a merchant's total payment costs. A recent report published by Javelin tallied that consumer disputes and chargebacks created $31 billion in financial losses in the US, with merchants bearing nearly $19 billion of those costs. To understand what's happening and what technology can do to improve the chargeback problem, Rick Lynch, senior vice president of business development at Verifi joins me on the podcast. We discuss the issue, the misaligned incentives in the industry, and different approaches to solving the problem

Some examples: “He made all his money from property.” “They made all their money from GNLD.” “He made all his money from farming.” The phrase also goes the other way, except this time it's true. “They lost all their money when their business failed.” “He lost all his money in property.” “They lost everything in an investment.” The key message I got from Simon's recent conversation with Charles Savage is that users remain uninvested because they are afraid of losing all their money. The bigger problem is that people misunderstand what the stock market is and how you make money from it. In this episode, we attempt to explain how you make and lose money in the stock market. We follow that with why it's very unlikely that you'll make, or lose, ALL your money by investing. Win of the week is Shane, for sending my favourite email of the week. Just wanted to say - this morning's podcast was terrific! Busy researching into a shared Credit Card for myself and the missus. Whilst we have been VERY good at mindful spending and savings, we just found out we're (unexpectedly) expecting an addition to the family
CONEXPO – CON/AGG Radio: Construction Technology Trends For Contractors
