FAQs

How Do I Disconnect Braintree from Chargeback.io?

  1. In the left sidebar, click Integrations.

  2. Find Braintree in the list.

  3. Click Disconnect.

The disconnection is immediate. After disconnecting, automatic refunds for CDRN and Ethoca alerts will stop.

You’ll continue receiving chargeback alerts even after disconnecting.


If you want to stop receiving alerts completely, fill out the unenrollment form. It takes approximately one week for all merchant descriptors to be fully unenrolled.

Can I Have More Than One Braintree Connection?

Each business account can only have one Braintree connection at a time.
If you need to connect another Braintree account, create a sub-business account.

Use clear naming to differentiate them, for example:
Business Name – Braintree

You can follow this guide to create additional business or sub-accounts.

Does Chargeback.io Support PayPal?

Chargeback.io does not currently integrate with PayPal. Connecting Braintree does not prevent or manage PayPal chargebacks.
