It is certainly possible to use a chargeback response template to write a rebuttal letter. But it could ultimately prove more time-consuming and less effective than other methods. If you have the knowledge, experience, and available time to write your own letter, that is likely to be more effective than a template-based letter. Alternatively, if you do not have the time and experience, outsourcing your rebuttal letter creation is another option—albeit one that requires a degree of faith in the chargeback company that you hire. Another possibility is to use a tool that helps you write rebuttal letters through the use of dynamically generated templates, offering a balance of effectiveness, ease of use, and in-house control.

The format of the evidence should be something that clearly serves as documentation of the merchant’s counterclaims. This includes records of communication between merchant and cardholder, delivery confirmation, invoices and receipts, and confirmation of the cardholder's identification.
