In our ongoing commitment to empower and educate industry professionals, we held another session of our Pesapal Caffe Series. This time, we delved into a critical topic that has been at the forefront of discussions within the hospitality and travel sector - Navigating Chargeback Challenges: Safeguarding Your Hospitality and Travel Business.
Once again, our Pesapal Caffe Series brought together experts and industry leaders to share insights and strategies to address the pressing challenges faced by businesses in these sectors. Our audience included a diverse array of merchants from Tanzania, Zanzibar, Uganda, and Zambia, all seeking knowledge and solutions to fortify their businesses against chargeback issues.
As the discussion kicked off, Anthony Irungu, a seasoned expert with experience in risk analysis took the stage. He emphasized the need for businesses to adopt a proactive approach to risk management. He spoke on different types of chargebacks and how to mitigate them and gave real-life cases of chargebacks and how to handle them.
In today's fast-paced landscape, anticipating and mitigating chargeback risks is paramount. By understanding the underlying causes and patterns behind chargebacks, businesses can implement preventive measures." Irungu stated.
Renowned for his visionary leadership and passion for harnessing technology-driven solutions, Sadru Kazabula gave a fresh perspective stating that technology is not merely a tool; it's an enabler. "Investing in the right technology empowers businesses to streamline operations, enhance customer experiences, and significantly reduce the incidence of chargebacks." He concluded.
