600+ reviewsTL;DR:
- Read the dispute reason, status, and deadline first.
- Verify prefilled evidence against the transaction records.
- Choose evidence fields by relevance to the claim.
- Confirm final submission separately from saving a draft.
The Stripe dispute evidence panel is the case workspace for reviewing a dispute and preparing the information sent for evaluation. Read the reason, current status, and response deadline before editing the evidence.
Read the Case Before Filling Fields
Open the exact disputed payment in Stripe and reconcile the amount, currency, order, and any refund. Review prefilled information against your records; do not assume every populated field is complete or that it must never be corrected.
| Panel Area | What to Check | Next Action |
|---|---|---|
| Reason and claim | What the cardholder disputes | Select evidence that answers that claim |
| Status and deadline | Whether a response is currently required | Assign an owner and work to the displayed cutoff |
| Product and customer details | Accurate purchase context | Correct gaps or discrepancies using source records |
| Evidence uploads | Relevant, legible files in the appropriate category | Preview the final submission |
| Submission confirmation | Whether evidence was actually submitted | Record the confirmation and monitor status |
Stripe’s dispute object reference distinguishes the evidence deadline, whether evidence exists, and submission count. Saved evidence and a completed submission are different checkpoints.
Choose Fields by Relevance
Use product_description to explain the sale, shipping documentation for physical fulfillment, and access_activity_log for relevant digital activity. Customer communication can explain a complaint or resolution. None of these fields has a universal priority ranking across all dispute reasons.
The digital goods evidence guide explains access records. For other cases, start with the Stripe evidence checklist. Purchase IP and billing details provide context; they do not independently prove who authorized the charge.
Check the Final Submission
- Remove irrelevant pages and duplicate excerpts.
- Check the current file type, size, and page limits in the submission workflow.
- Use readable copies of relevant records, rather than links that require a reviewer to sign in.
- Review everything before final submission. Follow the case workflow for the action that actually sends the response.
- Confirm submission and track the case outcome.
Stripe’s response instructions explain the Dashboard workflow and final submission. Use standardized evidence records to reduce preparation gaps. If the result is unclear, review Stripe dispute statuses and outcomes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I edit prefilled Stripe evidence?
Review prefilled Stripe evidence for accuracy and completeness. Correct discrepancies using your source records and follow any field-specific instructions.
Does saving Stripe evidence submit it?
Saving Stripe evidence is not the same checkpoint as final submission. Check the case confirmation to establish that your response was sent.
Which Stripe evidence field matters most?
The most relevant Stripe evidence fields depend on the dispute reason. Select records that answer the claim instead of assigning every case the same field priority.
