“Joining Chargeback Gurus gives me a unique opportunity to engage with the payments value chain to help curb fraud, improve risk management, and ultimately make business more profitable for merchants,” said Robins. “I believe my experience, skills, and relationships across the industry can facilitate fruitful collaborations to meet those objectives.”
The recent exponential growth of card-not-present sales has invited fraud and abuse, leaving merchants to bear the impact of financial liability, reputational damage, and threats to business continuity. In his new position at Chargeback Gurus, Robins looks forward to leveraging his in-depth experience, subject matter expertise, and industry connections to enhance relationships between merchants, acquirers, and issuers, creating better outcomes for not only for merchants but for the overall integrity of the payments ecosystem.
“Chargeback Gurus believes in providing the best chargeback management solutions and expert team for our fortune 500 clients and other card not present merchants. Sebastian’s arrival will support our rapid growth and leadership position,” said Suresh Dakshina, President of Chargeback Gurus. “As we continue to strengthen the solutions we offer our clients, his experience, relationship and insights will help our merchants recover more revenue and proactively prevent disputes leading to increased return on investment.”
