Why Digital Downloads are High‑Risk
Digital downloads are delivered instantly and cannot be “returned,” which leads to higher fraud and chargeback ratios than physical products. Banks and mainstream processors often flag these businesses as high‑risk, freeze funds, or terminate accounts when disputes spike.
Instant Delivery & No Physical Proof
Once a file is downloaded, it is hard to prove delivery or prevent ongoing access, making disputes easier for cardholders.
Customers may claim non‑delivery or non‑authorization even after accessing software, media, or documents.

Higher Chargeback Exposure
Non‑refundable policies, unclear terms, and subscription forgetfulness all contribute to elevated chargeback ratios.
Exceeding chargeback thresholds can trigger rolling reserves, funding holds, or sudden account closures.

Fraud and IP Abuse
Stolen cards are attractive in digital goods because fraudsters receive value immediately and at scale.
Content piracy, resale, and account sharing add additional risk and revenue leakage for digital merchants.
