Ethoca and Verifi were recently acquired by Mastercard and Visa. So are alerts brand-specific now?

Two of the industry’s leading service providers for chargeback prevention were recently acquired. Mastercard® acquired Ethoca while Visa® acquired Verifi.

Fortunately, these acquisitions haven’t made prevention alerts brand specific. You’ll still receive good coverage for both Mastercard and Visa transactions no matter which vendor you use. And we still recommend merchants use both tools to get the best coverage possible.
