"Not as advertised" chargebacks. That industry is also full of subscription scams (e.g. someone thinks they're ordering a supplement for $5.99, but they're actually getting signed up for $39.99/month...).

  I don't think the credit card networks would care about that if it weren't for the risk of chargebacks. Credit card networks have no problem with processing payments for churches!

    Right, no, I'm just saying: that drives a lot of chargebacks.

> That industry is also full of subscription scams Visa / MC are the ones who enable subscription scams and benefit from them. They implemented "convinience" option of "updating" your credit card data with replacement card. So even if you cancel and replace card charges continue to pass. They also totally able to see all the places where your card been tokenised, but they dont push banks to expose this to you.

  In Canada at least, you can opt out of having your new card number shared when you replace a card.
