Justt vs Disputed: Enterprise Chargeback Management Compared

The Short Answer

Disputed and Justt both handle chargebacks end to end. Disputed is built for enterprise merchants receiving 1,000 or more chargebacks a month. It reads your data through read-only access to your data warehouse, so you're live with full customer, order and support data in as little as two weeks, and it finds the root causes behind your chargebacks. Pricing is a flat fee per dispute, as low as $10 fully managed, with no share of what you recover.

Justt is a fully managed chargeback service that connects to your processor first, takes the rest of your data by API, CSV or prebuilt connectors, and charges a percentage of the revenue they recover.

Head-to-Head Results

At one enterprise merchant, Disputed and Justt each handled part of the merchant’s non-fraud disputes on the same processor in a 33-week comparison. The result?

Disputed recovered 11% more chargeback revenue than Justt.

Over those 33 weeks, Disputed recovered 39.7% of the non-fraud dispute dollars it fought for, against 35.9% for Justt. That’s about 11% more recovered of every disputed dollar fought for.

What that rate difference means in dollars

This is one merchant. If you're weighing both vendors, a split test on your own disputes will tell you more than either vendor's numbers.

Getting Live: Onboarding and Your Data

The biggest difference between the two shows up before the first dispute is worked: how your data gets to the vendor, and how much of your team's time that takes.

What "live" means

Justt's FAQ puts go-live at 3-5 business days after your processor is connected, and says you can go live before adding any of your own data. Your processor holds the payment record: the card, the amount, the reason code and often the billing details. It usually doesn't hold what the customer bought, whether it arrived, or what they told your support team. A strong evidence packet needs all of that.

Justt takes that data by API, CSV upload or one of their prebuilt connectors to tools like your helpdesk, commerce platform or subscription billing. How much work that is depends on how many systems your data lives in and whether a connector exists for each one. In our experience enterprise merchants with several systems have been quoted months for a full integration.

Disputed takes as little as two weeks to start with the full picture. Enterprise merchants usually already collect data from their other systems into a data warehouse, through the same pipelines their analytics and marketing tools use. Disputed reads from that warehouse, so your engineers don't have to build an integration, and merchants are live with full customer, order and support data in as little as two weeks.

Read-only access

Disputed's warehouse connection is read-only. Disputed reads the data it needs to build evidence and analyze causes, and doesn't write to your systems. For security and data teams, that's a smaller review than granting write access or standing up a new data feed. Your security review will still cover what Disputed reads and how it's stored, and Disputed works through that review with you.

Connectors built during onboarding

Disputed connects to all the major PSPs. When a merchant runs on a processor, gateway or internal system that isn't connected yet, Disputed builds that connector as part of onboarding. So far, building one hasn't extended onboarding: the work runs alongside everything else. You don't need to adapt your stack to fit a list of supported tools.

Onboarding that runs with your review process

Every enterprise client takes Disputed through legal review, security review and an AI governance policy. Disputed's setup runs alongside those reviews instead of waiting for them, with a team that has been through them many times.

Running It: Who Works the Disputes, and How Much Control You Keep

Three ways to run it

Both vendors offer a fully managed service, where the vendor works your disputes. Disputed offers two more options:

You can start with one and move to another as your team's needs change.

What you see on every case

Disputed reviews each case and works out what happened, why it happened, how to resolve it, and whether it's worth fighting. That reasoning is shown on the case. Your team can override any recommendation, or let Disputed act on them automatically once you trust them.

Justt's admin tool also lets you review and override recommendations and set automated policies.

Deciding whether to fight

Justt decides fight or accept on projected dollar return, weighing the likelihood of winning, the fees involved and the value of the chargeback. Disputed weighs projected return too, and adds the dispute's underlying cause: a customer disputing an order they received is a different case from one whose billing descriptor confused them.

Finding What Drives Your Chargebacks

A won dispute still counts toward your chargeback ratio, so the disputes you prevent matter more than the ones you win.

Every case Disputed works produces structured data, so patterns across thousands of disputes become visible:

Every case→Structured data→Patterns

01Accounts filing repeat claims

02Customers disputing orders they received

03Integration settings that leave liability with the merchant

04Services selling false chargebacks to consumers

Each of those patterns points to disputes you can prevent. Disputed also monitors your chargeback ratios, so you see where they're heading before a monitoring threshold.

What It Costs

Pricing checked October, 2026.

How each one charges

Disputed charges a flat fee for each dispute that runs through the platform, as low as $10 for fully managed, $5 for self-managed or $1 for headless. The fee is the same whatever the dispute is worth, and whether the case is won, lost or accepted.

Justt charges nothing on lost disputes and takes a percentage of the revenue they recover. They don't publish the rate. In our experience with merchants who use this pricing model, the percentage isn't always a single flat rate: it can change with the win rate, with an added per-dispute charge above a threshold. Ask for the full schedule in writing, including how a win is defined.

What that means for your budget

If most of your chargebacks are under about $40, percentage-of-recovery pricing can cost less. Our breakdown of the four ways chargeback vendors charge works through the math at different order values.

Who Should Choose Each

Our Verdict

Justt is a fully managed service with a long list of prebuilt connectors and pricing that charges only when a dispute is won. For a merchant who wants to hand disputes off and pay on results, that's a reasonable choice.

For enterprise merchants handling 1,000 or more chargebacks a month, Disputed is the stronger fit, for these reasons.

01

It fits the systems you already have. Read-only access to your warehouse, any connector you need built during onboarding, and full data in as little as two weeks.

02

You decide how it runs. Fully managed, self-managed in the platform, or headless through the API and MCP server. Every case shows what happened, why and what Disputed recommends, and your team can override it.

03

The cost doesn't grow with each recovery. A flat fee per dispute, as low as $10 for fully managed dispute response, that finance can budget from a chargeback forecast. Clients report recovering as much as $14.80 for every $1 spent.

04

It shows you what's driving your chargebacks. AI root-cause analysis on every chargeback finds the patterns behind them, so you can prevent the disputes a win wouldn't take off your ratio.

05

The team learns your business, and so does the AI. Context Disputed's team gathers about your business is built into the AI that works your cases. When you raise a problem, the team investigates and reports back on the cause and the fix. Disputed's team ran payments and dispute operations on the merchant side, at scale, before building the product, and builds from what clients ask for.
