What is a MCC

Merchant Category Code?

A Merchant Category Code (MCC) is a four-digit number assigned to a business by credit card networks and acquiring banks. This code identifies the type of goods or services a merchant provides and is used by payment networks like Visa and Mastercard to classify transactions. MCCs are vital for determining interchange fees, tax reporting, and assessing risk levels associated with specific merchants.

Businesses, payment processors, and financial institutions rely on MCC data to verify merchant types, detect high-risk industries, prevent chargebacks, and optimize transaction processing. MCC lookup tools make this information easy to access in seconds.

An MCC lookup tool allows you to search for a Merchant Category Code by code or business type, helping you quickly understand a merchant’s industry classification. This information is crucial for fraud and chargeback prevention, enabling you to identify high-risk merchants before approving transactions. It also helps with compliance and reporting by ensuring accurate tax and regulatory categorization.

Beyond that, MCC data allows businesses to optimize payment processes, apply correct interchange fees, and reduce costly errors during transaction handling. By having access to accurate MCC information, you can make smarter, safer, and more profitable payment decisions.

Preguntas frecuentes

Estas son las preguntas más frecuentes que recibimos sobre Chargeback.

¿Protegerá esto a mi procesador de pagos?

Sí. Las alertas de devolución de cargo son la mejor manera de mantener su procesador en buen estado. Reducir la tasa de contracargos lo ayuda a evitar retenciones de dinero, multas, reservas acumuladas e incluso tener que cerrar el servicio.

¿Qué es el Chargeback?

Chargeback es un servicio de prevención de contracargos diseñado para hacer exactamente lo que su nombre indica: prevenir contracargos.

Para ello, te avisamos sobre las transacciones en las que el cliente acaba de solicitar una devolución de cargo. A continuación, reembolsaremos automáticamente estas transacciones antes de que se conviertan en contracargos.

Esto ayuda a reducir la tasa de contracargos, a reducir las comisiones y a minimizar los posibles problemas con el procesador de pagos.

¿Qué integraciones admite?

Actualmente, admitimos Stripe, Shopify Payments, Braintree, Chargebee y Recurly. También planeamos ampliar nuestra integración para incluir Authorize.net y Airwallex.

¿Cuánto cuesta?

Solo se te cobrará cuando te enviemos una alerta. Y cada alerta es una devolución de cargo detenida. Para obtener una descripción más detallada, visita nuestra página de precios.

¿Hay una tarifa de incorporación, contratos o mínimos mensuales?

No tenemos tarifas de incorporación, contratos ni mínimos mensuales. El inicio de Chargeback es gratuito y solo cobramos por alerta.

¿Qué es una alerta?

Una alerta de devolución de cargo te notifica las devoluciones de cargo entrantes entre 24 y 72 horas antes de que se presenten oficialmente.
