How to Dispute a Transaction

If you find an incorrect charge on your Expensify Card:

  1. If the charge is fraudulent, cancel your card right away (Settings > Account > Wallet > Request a New Card).
  2. Contact Concierge Support
  3. Provide details about the transaction, including:
    • Date and amount
    • Merchant name
    • Reason for the dispute
  4. We’ll investigate the issue and file a dispute with our card processor on your behalf.

Types of Disputes

Unauthorized or Fraudulent Transactions

These occur when:

  • Your card is charged after being lost or stolen.
  • Your card details are used without authorization.
  • A subscription continues to charge after cancellation.

To secure your account:

  1. Cancel your card: Go to Settings > Account > Wallet > Request a New Card.
  2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Activate 2FA under Settings > Account > Profile > Two-Factor Authentication.

Service Disputes

These involve issues with products or services, such as:

  • Damaged or defective items
  • Items not received
  • Duplicate charges
  • No refund after a return
  • Incorrect charge amounts

Tip: Always contact the merchant first, as they may resolve the issue faster.


Tips for a Smooth Dispute Process

  • Clearly explain the dispute reason and any steps taken.
  • If you recognize the merchant but not the charge, contact them first.
  • Provide supporting documents (e.g., receipts, cancellation confirmations).
  • Ensure the transaction is not pending, as pending charges cannot be disputed.
