NMI doesn't provide billing descriptors or Verifi IDs (ARNs or BINs and CAIDs). You must get these from the payment processor connected to your NMI account.
Use this guide to connect NMI to Chargeback.io so Prevent can automatically refund transactions linked to Ethoca Alerts and Cardholder Dispute Resolution Network (CDRN) alerts. You’ll also learn how to create and find your API Key; and disconnect NMI from Chargeback.io. Each business account supports only one NMI connection.
If you use multiple NMI accounts, see how to connect another payment processor to a business account before changing your setup.
For auto-refund settings and thresholds, follow Set up auto-refunds for alerts.
