San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) September 12, 2007 -- Vindicia, Inc. (http://www.vindicia.com), a leading provider of payment management services for online merchants, has added leading social networking site Reunion.com (http://www.reunion.com) as a customer for its ChargeGuard™ (http://www.vindicia.com/products/ChargeGuard.html) chargeback management services.

Chargebacks occur when credit card holders contact their bank to dispute a charge. Chargebacks especially impact Card-Not-Present (CNP) e-commerce merchants and can have a costly effect on a merchant's business. The CyberSource 2007 Annual Online Fraud Report estimates that $3 billion in online revenues were lost to online fraud, that chargebacks accounted for approximately half of the fraud losses, and that the time spent handling chargebacks ranged from 30 minutes to 1.8 hours per chargeback.

"With our company's rapid growth, it becomes even more necessary to closely monitor chargeback rates, keep informed of new payment-related rules and regulations, and understand how they may affect our business," said Jeffrey Tinsley (http://www.reunion.com/ManagementTeam.do), Founder and CEO, Reunion.com. "By using Vindicia's ChargeGuard chargeback management services, we ensure that our credit card chargebacks are promptly and effectively processed, analyzed, and disputed. Vindicia's expertise in payment management gives us insight on why chargebacks are occurring and provides us with guidance on how to control chargebacks in the future."

"Controlling chargebacks is a critical issue that faces every online merchant," said Gene Hoffman, Jr. (http://www.vindicia.com/company/Management.html), Chairman and CEO, Vindicia. "We're pleased to be providing best practices-based chargeback management services to Reunion.com."
