A rough estimate of the goods/revenue plus fees lost to chargebacks (it doesn't include staff time or raised processing rates, so the real cost is usually higher). Responding clearly to the disputes worth contesting is how you recover some of it — though no one can guarantee an outcome.

Want to contest them properly? The kits give you ready-made evidence templates, or the done-for-you service organizes your records for you.
