Mastercard Negative Option Billing Rules
Mastercard has implemented a few rules around the practice of Negative Option Billing. These new rules apply only to card-not-present subscription services in which the customer receives a physical product. These rules do not cover digital services,such as streaming TV or music services. If your business relies on negative option billing practices, it is important to understand MasterCard’s rules in order to avoid charge backs and possible action against you.
