Chargebacks
Card transactions are sometimes disputed by the cardholder or the card issuing bank,
forexample goods not received, transaction not recognised or authorised. When this
happens we may contact you requesting further information.
If you are not able to supply the information requested by us or in the time scales we
specify then it is likely that this may turn into a chargeback which you may be held
liable for, even if you have proof that the transaction was genuine.
Where there is a valid chargeback we will write to you to let you know and BOIPA will
debit your nominated bank account with the value of the disputed transaction, quoting
the same unique reference number as in the chargeback letter. Our Managing
Chargebacks Guide can be found in the Merchant Resources section of
our website.
For Restaurant and Hotel/Guesthouse functionality, please contact our
customer support team.

Contactless
Contactless is an increasingly popular method of payment and all BOIPA POS
terminals have contactless functionality. Contactless cards enable purchases
under €50 to be completed by tapping the card over a Contactless reader on
the enabled terminal. This improves customer payment experience, speeds
up transactions and helps retailers to remove cash from their business.
Apple Pay/ Google Pay
All BOIPA terminals support Apple and Google pay. To pay, the customer just
holds their Apple or Android device near the contactless terminal reader with
their nger on Touch ID.

transparent payment solutions. DCC allows customers with international
debit/credit cards the opportunity to pay in their own currency rather than in
the local currency where they are making the purchase.

gure out currency conversions
DCC allows full transparency on foreign exchange rates
