## Summary of Exploring Financial Services Operations Integration with Verifi application

ServiceNow® Financial Services Operations (FSO) Integration with Verifi application enables issuers to streamline dispute management by connecting issuer dispute workflows with the Verifi Cardholder Dispute Resolution Network (CDRN).
When a cardholder disputes a transaction, the issuer submits the case to Verifi CDRN, which routes it to the merchant.
ServiceNow manages the issuer-side processes including case submission, monitoring updates, and closing cases upon merchant resolution, helping avoid chargebacks.

## User Roles and Responsibilities

* **Dispute Agent:** Manages dispute cases via the Verifi UI, reviews merchant alerts, decides on eligibility, acts on merchant responses, and closes cases when appropriate resolutions are offered.
* **System Administrator:** Configures and maintains the Verifi integration including API credentials, polling intervals, SLA thresholds, and decision tables mapping status codes to outcomes.
* **Integration Developer:** Implements, extends, or troubleshoots the integration, handling API sequences (eligibility check, case creation, polling, acknowledgment) and debugging API errors.
* **Cardholder:** The customer disputing a transaction, receiving timely resolution and communication of merchant responses.
* **Merchant:** Responds to dispute alerts within 72 hours, offers resolutions to avoid chargebacks, and protects dispute ratios by resolving directly through Verifi CDRN.

## Benefits and Features

* **Dispute Resolution without Chargebacks:** Merchants can offer refunds acceptable to cardholders, allowing disputes to close without chargebacks.
* **Automated Merchant Eligibility:** The system automatically checks merchant eligibility via Verifi CDRN API, routing non-eligible merchants to standard dispute processes without agent involvement.
* **Reduced Chargeback Exposure for Merchants:** Merchants participating in CDRN can resolve disputes directly with issuers, avoiding fees and protecting their dispute metrics.
* **Seamless API Integration:** The integration automates the complete API workflow---eligibility check, case creation, polling, and acknowledgment---eliminating manual API handling for users.

## Overview of the application {#explore-fso-integration-with-verifi-cdrn__cf-exploring-parent-overview}

Financial Services Operations Integration with Verifi lets issuers automatically negotiate with merchants before disputes move toward chargeback process. When a cardholder disputes a transaction, the issuer submits a case
to CDRN, which routes it to the merchant. ServiceNow® manages the issuer-side workflow --- submitting cases, polling for updates, and closing cases when the merchant responds.
