Event Pros - Card Disputes Are 1 in 1000

You are right that chargebacks are brutal, but you're wrong on how often they happen. On Check Cherry, fewer than one card payment in a thousand has ever been disputed. One in a thousand. And 19 out of 20 businesses taking card payments have never seen a single dispute. When a dispute does happen, the most common reason is a stolen cart, not an unhappy client trying to claw that money back. The thing most pros fear about taking cards is the thing the data says almost never happens.
