DANGERS OF MATCH LIST:

 

It is not easy for anyone to get rid of Match list. The MATCH List is a blacklist of high-risk merchants that many acquirers use to avoid merchants that are likely to cause them trouble. The list is maintained by Mastercard and is used across the payments industry.

The MATCH list is not where you want to be. It shows that your merchant account has been flagged as high-risk due to chargeback activity, and being on it can be a big problem for doing business. The best way to avoid that fate is to be fully educated about what criteria can get you placed on the MATCH list, how to prevent that from happening, and what to do if you end up on the list despite your best efforts.

While being on the MATCH list won’t cause you to lose any currently active merchant accounts in good standing, the most serious consequence is that you will struggle to open any new ones while you’re on it.

CAUSES OF BEING ON MATCH LIST:

Following are the causes that why are you being on match list. 

  • Account Data Compromise
