Chargebacks
Card transactions are sometimes disputed by the cardholder or the card issuing bank, for example 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 0held 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 UK 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.

Contactless

Contactless is an increasingly popular method of payment and all BOIPA UK POS terminals have contactless functionality. Contactless cards enable purchases under £100 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 UK terminals support Apple and Google pay. To pay, the customer just holds their Apple or Android device near the contactless terminal reader with their finger on Touch ID.

Dynamic Currency Conversion

DCC is an easy and simple way to offer your international customers 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.
What are the benefits of offering DCC?

Cardholders know exactly how much they are spending without the need to figure out currency conversions
DCC allows full transparency on foreign exchange rates
Adding DCC to your terminal is completely FREE
Improved customer service for international customers
Earn a rebate from each DCC transaction that you process

By validating your compliance through the portal you can avoid the fines, fees and reputational damage associated with a breach. In line with our transparent pricing there is no fee for becoming PCI compliant.

Merchants are assisted in understanding how to protect their business
