Dispute/Chargeback Fees
Sometimes, customers can open a dispute/chargeback via their bank for a purchase. Disputes cost $15 per dispute regardless of outcome and is deducted from your balance directly. This fee is charged by the underlying credit card networks & PSPs regardless of outcome and therefore something we cannot refund. However, we continuously work to proactively reduce the rate of chargebacks across Rapidly to be at or lower than industry standards. Credit card networks impose monitoring programs, penalties and higher chargeback costs for sellers with high chargeback rates (~0.7%+). We therefore always monitor and proactively prevent rates from coming close to these thresholds. Therefore, we might need to intervene and even suspend your account unless swift and proactive measures are taken to reduce chargebacks to an acceptable industry standard.Payout Fees
While payouts may incur fees charged by our payout provider (Stripe), Rapidly does not add any extra fees or markup. These are strictly Stripe’s fees, and Rapidly does not profit from them. In addition, Rapidly offers manual withdrawals for developers. Keeping you in control of when to issue payouts. Unless you have a Rapidly balance that you haven’t withdrawn for several months, at which point we’ll eventually need to trigger a payout on your behalf.
