When the buyer has a trade on Remitano, there are some common reasons to put the trade under dispute:

  • Seller did not release the money

  • Buyer has paid more than the amount required for this transaction

  • Seller asks to continue this trade outside Remitano platform

  • Seller provided wrong bank details

  • Other

Note: Buyer and seller can dispute after the buyer has sent payment and marked the payment as “Transferred”.


Step 1: Click on Transferred

  • The buyer needs to click on Transferred and Submit the payment proof


Step 2: Click File a dispute

  • The buyer will see the screen countdown the time of the dispute

  • When the time is up, the buyer can click on File a dispute


Step 3: Submit dispute details

3.1. Dispute reason

You are requested to provide the reason that you want to dispute the trade (single-choice):

  • Seller did not release the money

  • Buyer has paid more than the amount required for this transaction

  • Seller asks to continue this trade outside Remitano platform

  • Seller provided wrong bank details

  • Other

3.2. Additional information (maximum 200 characters) (required)

It is suggested that you provide any further information to make more clarification for the dispute.

3.3. Dispute proofs

Upload a dispute proof: Screenshots of your payment, receipts, bank statements of your bank account, recordings of your bank app starting from the login page and include:

Step 4: Wait for Remitano's support team to review your dispute request

In this stage, the screen demonstrates updates about the dispute for users (communications with the customer support team, and communications from the counterparty)

You can:

  • Update additional proofs as required by customer support

  • Cancel dispute (You can only cancel a dispute if you are the person who clicked on the “Filed a dispute” button before). The trade status should be reverted to “Paid/ Verifying Payment” and users can release/cancel the trade by themselves

  • Chat with CS and counterparty.

Step 5: View the dispute result

You will see the result of your dispute after CS has resolved (Released or Canceled).

Important Notes

Once the funds have been released from escrow, the dispute process cannot be restarted. This is because once the funds have been transferred to the other party, they are no longer under our control and we are unable to intervene in any further disputes.

If you need more help regarding this trade, please contact our Customer Support team for assistance.

Thank you!
