MasterCard Reason Codes
MasterCard uses four-digit numbers for their chargeback reason codes, each beginning with 48 as the first two digits. Some acquirers, processors or PSPs may just provide the last two digits of the reason code in their data reporting, as that is all that is needed to distinguish between the reason codes and recognize the chargeback description.
MasterCard eliminated some reason codes while condensing or combining others in 2016. There are now 19 different reason codes and while MasterCard does not group or categorize these in a way like Visa disputes, we have organized these into four similar groups below.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
D. England, Fraud Prevention & Payments Services Manager, MonaVie
I really enjoyed the eCommerce Fraud Professional training program, and it was actually more comprehensive than I was expecting. I have already recommended it to others.
M. Mosman, Solutions Consultant, LexisNexis
I have previously taken other training programs, but there was a lot of minutia. The content in the eCommece Fraud Professional program is relevant, the material is spot on, and the content addresses all the important issues pertaining to the eCommerce market.
J. Ruzicka, eCommerce Certified Fraud Professional
Much of the material or advice given in the eCommerce Fraud Professional training program we already tell merchant clients to do as best practices, but I learned several new things to tell them as well. I also learned some new terminology that will help us converse with merchants about these topics.
