ChargePay Helps Blue Friends to Recover Lost Shopify Chargeback Revenue

Blue Friends, an outdoor lifestyle brand, encountered a significant hurdle with rising Shopify chargebacks. Explore the brand's quest to navigate this operational storm.

This case study explores how ChargePay Services played a pivotal role in transforming Blue Friends chargeback resolution process, from initial challenges to the ultimate solution.

The Challenge

Blue Friends, the sustainable outdoor lifestyle brand, encountered significant challenges in their business operations. For the past eight months, they had been grappling with stagnant sales, which was primarily attributed to a surge in chargeback requests. Initially, Blue Friends considered these chargebacks as an inevitable part of their business, as their chargeback ratio stood at a manageable 0.3%.

However, their situation took a concerning turn as fraudulent Shopify chargebacks began to rise, causing their chargeback ratio to spike to 0.8%. This placed them dangerously close to losing the trust of Shopify, as the chargeback ratio threshold set by the platform was 1%.

The manual effort required to collect all the necessary evidence and maintain records of chargeback disputes became an overwhelming and time-consuming task for Blue Friends. Furthermore, the impact of these fraudulent chargebacks on their profit margins was substantial, resulting in a 4% loss in gross profit.

In this challenging scenario, Blue Friends sought a solution to efficiently manage and mitigate the impact of these chargebacks on their business.
