Win the "I never got the course" chargeback.
Stripe apps that capture pre-dispute evidence on every purchase, defend chargebacks in 60 seconds, and recover failed payments on monthly subscriptions. Install from the Stripe Marketplace in under a minute.
Why course chargebacks are different
High-ticket digital products attract a specific dispute pattern: students pay $1k-$10k, complete most of the program, then dispute claiming they never got access.
Disputes hit weeks after delivery
By the time a chargeback lands, you've forgotten the customer. Reflex pulls Stripe's full record into a defense package automatically.
"Never received" claims on digital goods
There's no FedEx tracking. The defense has to be 3DS authentication, AVS match, IP geolocation, and device fingerprinting captured at payment time. Vault captures all of it.
Subscription churn from card declines
Cards expire mid-program. Without smart retries and dunning, you lose monthly revenue silently. Recover handles the retry timing and customer-facing card update flow.
Refund abuse compounds at high price points
Serial refunders target high-ticket courses. Sentinel scores every refund against a cross-merchant abuse network so you see the pattern before approving.
Which apps you actually need

Cross-merchant abuse scoring on every refund request. $39/month with Reflex bundle. Most useful when you have a "satisfaction guarantee" that gets exploited.
