Question about Gambling websites with Curaçao license using incorrect Merchant Category code (strana 277)

Hi guys,

So been doing alot of digging and even made an account with a casino I knew was using Smartpayments.ee transactions as the payment merchants (All done with my partner to ensure I never gambled).

So Cardaq are involved in these transactions and they have strict polices on their websites about companies using the correct merchant codes. I am waiting for a reply and I will keep you all updated but maybe, just maybe we might be onto something!

Praxis pay is another. I am going to get emails sent to both these and request all GDPR and SARS from both my previous bank cards. I do recognise Cardaq from the past. So let's see where this goes 🙂

Cardaq clearly states that using the 7995 MCC the merchants must provide all relevant data e.g. casino license etc. I am aware that some of the casinos who have used smartpayments.ee do not have licenses!

So let's see what happens here 🙂

Update. The companies in question never provided receipts neither did cardaq, they also have their own chargeback forms on the website

So anyone who has SMPAYPF*Maginc - direct it to these! 😁😁

Nice work ! good luck with it bud persistence pays off I think my own situation is looking a lot better now as well !😊

Mine are obviously older, but If I can get them back then I will!!

I know a few have Maginc on there's, then they need to go to Cardaq 🙂

Amazing work…

how did you relate the sm pay to these out of curiosity

I had in my head they were sumup payments - where does cardaq fit in??

Ok I was told by the bank it was sumup but im still waiting on them replying after they took my card details etc

Sumup actually replied to me my mate, and actually clearly stated its Smartpayments.ee!!

I have made many bank transfers to Arezella Limited and wonder if there is anything I can do about it.

So I was going thru my history last night and eventually stumbled upon these. Asked my partner to help me make an account in her name etc.. we did. First transaction was an smpaypf*maginc. The downside is that it went straight through no 3DS! So I've probably lost $20 But I don't mind.

Went thru cardaq. All smpaypf payments I have on statements I matched them all up and cardaq is there on them all in my browser history!

Perks of not deleting your history ever 🤣🤷‍♂️ so yes I'm pretty sure there is something going on, they are also FCA Registered.

Have a look at their site and do it properly lots of loopholes to get money back and if they say they are not involved they are as I sent my Internet history over and a screenshot of the processing transaction!

They will have to contact the merchants in question!

Ok im still waiting on them replying which is odd but fair play I will try cardaq

interesting - good work from you..

fingers crossed we get somewhere with cardaq…

had a look at smartpayments and that looks like a company in Estonia so not sure where they fit in

ill see how I get on with cardaq and go from there I think

Vexoria Kaunas LTU is the hardest company in the world to find.

anyone any luck?

also still struggling with bytes and wacmah

And DSServeltd Cyprus

any help be greatly appreciated

Mate. Can you please give me your mail, Telegram or discord? Thing is i have lost 10.000 pound on SmPay/Cardaq/Smartpayments....

Would appriciate it a lot!

DT100.

Is it possible contact you outside this forum? Write please where. Discord maybe or tele gram?

The chargeback forms are for cardholders it says I think they need to sort it

Have lost most at this fraud companies, but would like to contact DT100 outside of forum if possible mate?

Hi buddy yes. What's your email? I only have that! I will contact you then 🙂

Smartpayments.ee is 100% the Smpay! There is no denying it. I seen it coming up when I did the bogey transaction last night!

Ok im sure I seen sumup when I did some of mine maybe they use several as this is what happens you do one it blocks then goes on to another then another till it takes the money I doubt anyone wants to accept liabilities due to the amount of money involved

Yes well, familiarise yourself with Cardaq t&cs. More so those on the chargeback page, clearly states miscoding🙂
