Evidence Captured
Before the Dispute
3D Secure, AVS, CVC, device fingerprint, and IP address — captured on every payment, timestamped with RFC 3161, ready when you need it.
The Problem with Chargebacks
Without Evidence Vault
- Dispute filed → scramble to find evidence
- 3DS/AVS/CVC data not stored or already expired
- No device fingerprint or IP — weak fraud defense
- No proof of when evidence was collected
- Bank sides with cardholder by default
With Evidence Vault
- Evidence captured automatically at payment time
- 6 data points on every transaction
- Device fingerprint ties purchase to customer
- RFC 3161 timestamp proves collection time
- Evidence auto-attached to dispute responses
6 Evidence Points on Every Payment
3D Secure
Authentication result and version. Proves cardholder verified the purchase.
AVS
Address verification status. Confirms billing address matches card.
CVC
Card verification code check. Proves card was physically present.
Device Fingerprint
Browser, OS, screen resolution, timezone. Ties purchase to specific device.
IP Address
Customer's IP at time of payment. Shows geographic consistency.
RFC 3161 Timestamp
Legally admissible proof of when evidence was collected. Certified by independent TSA.
Simple Pricing
One chargeback win pays for thousands of vault entries. A single $100 dispute costs you $115+ in fees and lost revenue.
How It Works
Install
Install Evidence Vault from the Stripe App Marketplace. Enable in Settings. Add collect.js to your checkout for device + IP capture.
Capture
On every successful payment, 6 evidence points are captured and timestamped with RFC 3161 — automatically, in under a second.
Defend
When a dispute hits, vault evidence is auto-attached to your response. Pre-timestamped evidence that existed before the dispute — hard for banks to ignore.
