These changes are significant, impacting <strong>chargeback risk to cruise, lodging and vehicle rental, heavy duty equipment rental and other merchants<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Two changes of note:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Revisions have been made to split the &#8220;Other Fraud&#8221; Dispute condition under Enhanced Dispute Resolution into separate conditions for <strong>Card-Present<\/strong> and <strong>Card-Absent<\/strong> Transactions, and to incorporate changes to the payment<br \/>\nflow related to Disputes. This will be covered in a separate article. A key component to mitigate chargeback risk is support for Verified by Visa.<\/li>\n<li>Expansion of <strong>Special Authorization Allowances<\/strong> Effective 15 October 2016, 22 April 2017, and 14 October 2017.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Revisions to <strong>Special Authorization<\/strong> rules include processing of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Estimated Authorization Requests<\/li>\n<li>Initial Authorization Requests<\/li>\n<li>Incremental Authorization Requests,<\/li>\n<li>Authorization Reversals, Issuer hold, releases, and Chargeback rights<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Applicable Merchants Impacted Effective 22 April 2017:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Aircraft rental<\/li>\n<li>Bicycle rental<\/li>\n<li>Boat rental<\/li>\n<li>Equipment rental<\/li>\n<li>Motor home rental<\/li>\n<li>Motorcycle rental<\/li>\n<li>Trailer park or campground rental<\/li>\n<li>Lodging<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>VISA Authorization Rule Summary:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Must send &#8220;estimated&#8221; flag with the initial authorization; the amount is not final and may change.<\/li>\n<li>Estimate cannot include amount for potential damage or insurance deductible.<\/li>\n<li>When closing out, must indicated that sale is &#8216;final&#8217;, and do a reversal for any difference within 24 hours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are many nuances to the rules and potential chargeback reason code 72 risk, which were non-existent in the past. <strong>Rather than consumer initiating a chargeback, the issuer will be within their rights to initiate a chargeback if the merchant fails to comply with the rules, for example, failing to submit the correct authorization flag for an <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">estimate<\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Further details about subsequent authorizations vary by industry. For example, Merchant may need to submit a final <strong>Incremental Authorization Request<\/strong>. Due to the complexity and variation by industry, merchants are advised to read the rules and ensure the payment processing technology in place will support the new rules. <strong>Payment gateways<\/strong> are a key component for compliance; all gateways must be updated if they&#8217;re going to support merchant compliance needs.<\/p>\n<p>Reference: Visa Core Rules and Visa Product and Service Rules, 15 October 2016. <a href=\"https:\/\/3dmerchant.com\/blog\/merchant-bulletins-downloads\">https:\/\/3dmerchant.com\/blog\/merchant-bulletins-downloads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/3dmerchant.com\/blog\/about\">Contact Christine Speedy,<\/a> for compliant lodging and rental payment gateway solutions that work with your existing financial partners, including First Data, Chase Paymentech, Tsys, Moneris, Global, and many others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2016, Visa announced new requirements for estimated and incremental authorization requests, introduced new authorization validity periods and merged car and truck rental categories into a new vehicle rental category.
