How it sells itself

A chargeback has a deadline, and Shopify submits a generic response if you miss it. Backstop checks your store every 6 hours, shows every open dispute with the days you have left, and tells you what evidence your reason code requires. Evidence is assembled from your order data, previewed as the exact PDF, and sent only when you say so.

Chargeback Copilot helps merchants handle payment disputes with a clear workflow. The app gathers dispute, order, fulfillment, shipping, and customer context into one workspace, highlights due dates, and generates structured evidence PDFs with checklist guidance. Teams can prioritize urgent cases, keep responses consistent, and reduce manual copy-paste work.

Key points
  • Automatic dispute watch every 6 hours with deadline countdowns in days
  • Reason code coaching: what each dispute type needs as evidence
  • Evidence packs assembled from your order data, previewed as the exact PDF
  • You approve everything. Nothing is ever submitted without you
  • Track open disputes and deadlines in one clear workspace.
  • Use reason-specific drafts to prepare stronger response submissions.
  • Prioritize urgent cases with due-soon views and status context.
  • Run a demo flow with synthetic data and download a sample PDF.
