-- Southwest Recovery Services has released a new guide examining when and how small businesses can send chargeback debts to collections, covering the recovery strategies, costs, and compliance considerations involved in pursuing disputed B2B transactions.

The announcement comes as small businesses face growing financial pressure from chargebacks, with the total costs of chargebacks now exceeding $30 billion per year, according to industry data. For small businesses, the true cost of each chargeback extends far beyond the reversed transaction amount—ranging from two to five times the original sale when accounting for fees that typically run $25 to $100 per incident, administrative expenses, and potential increases in payment processing rates.
Southwest Recovery Services structures its chargeback debt recovery through a contingency-only model that eliminates upfront financial risk for clients. Businesses pay nothing to engage the service and only remit a percentage—typically 10 to 25 percent—of amounts actually recovered, meaning the agency collects a fee only when clients successfully recover funds.
The company's approach balances revenue recovery with business relationship protection through adherence to ethical standards inspired by the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA)—which primarily governs consumer debt—and respectful communication strategies across multiple channels. For B2B companies where customer relationships drive long-term value, the firm notes that this dual focus sets it apart from collection practices that tend to prioritize aggressive tactics over professional engagement.
Southwest Recovery Services supports its chargeback advisory service with proprietary tracking technology that monitors all communications across phone, email, SMS, and mail while generating daily reporting. Veteran collectors trained in respectful negotiation techniques work these accounts, achieving a 50 percent recovery rate with collections ranging from $3,000 to $10,000 for accounts two to twelve months past due—a rate described as very high for the industry, according to company case studies.
The company brings specialized expertise in B2B industries, including trucking, logistics, contractors, and oil and gas, operating through 12 offices across seven states to provide nationwide availability with localized support. Small businesses seeking to recover chargeback losses can request a free quote or access the guide through the company website.
