MATCH - TMF Listing Removal

The MATCH list or TMF are blacklists maintained by Visa and MasterCard to let their member banks know of merchants that have been terminated for cause, such as excessive chargebacks. The fact of being listing on the MATCH list can cause material harm to a business because it usually results in the business not being able to obtain a normal domestic credit card processing account. From time to time, merchants that did nothing wrong are listed on the MATCH list. Adam Atlas Attorney at Law can assist merchants in that situation to ascertain whether there is an opportunity to arrange for their removal from the list. Getting removed from the MATCH list is most often accomplished through negotiation and not through litigation. Needless to say, the MATCH list raises some interesting questions as to anti-trust law and FTC regulations concerning fair business practices.

  3. Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be interested feel free to shoot me an e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you! Great blog by the way!
