View bill and payment statuses
When a client disputes a credit card or eCheck payment, all administrators and the firm’s primary subscriber are notified by email. When a chargeback takes place, the payment in dispute is returned to the client. This means that the payment is also removed from the bill in Clio Manage, which moves the bill back to an unpaid state.
You can view whether a payment has been disputed, whether there was a chargeback, and whether you won or lost a dispute in Clio Manage.

- A red Chargeback tag indicates that the payment has been disputed and a chargeback has been initiated (funds have been taken from your firm).
- A blue Dispute Won tag indicates that for disputes involving a chargeback, you won and the funds have been returned to your firm.
