How to find order disputes
Navigate to Financials
Click into Order Disputes
You'll see two tabs, Open and Resolved. These show information about open disputes and resolved disputes.
Understanding disputes
When a dispute has been filed, you’ll receive an email.
All of the information in order disputes comes from our payment processing partner Stripe. If you have submitted evidence for a dispute and don't see an immediate update, please wait 24 hours to see if the dashboard refreshes.
