Effective 1 October 2019, the Visa Dispute and Fraud Monitoring Programs will be updated.

Visa will reduce fraud and dispute thresholds for the Visa Fraud Monitoring Program (VFMP), the Visa Chargeback Monitoring Program (VCMP) and the Visa Acquirer Monitoring Program (VAMP).

Visa will lower the VCMP/VFMP standard thresholds from 100 to 90 basis points and VAMP thresholds from 100 to 75 basis points.

Program / Threshold Criteria

VCMP Standard Program

In an effort to maintain acceptable thresholds, MobiusPay will be working with you by monitoring your chargeback activity and offering guidance on how to adhere to the new standard being effected on 1 October 2019 as there is no grace period to adjust once we reach that deadline.
