In today’s eCommerce marketplace we can purchase goods and services from all over the world with just a few swipes on our smart phone or hand-held tablet. Online shopping is the new norm for Business-to-Consumer transactions. But when problems arise the next step is often unclear. It can be difficult, if not impossible, to tell the good merchants from the bad merchants, and the processes for resolving disputes are often confusing or hard to find. Customer service can feel like a runaround and formal redress mechanisms that work in the face-to-face world, like the courts, are generally impractical for online purchases.
The New Handshake focuses can be integrated directly into the websites where transactions take place. It provides consumers with free access to remedies, while saving businesses from costs and complexities of court.
This book is an essential resource for online merchants, payment providers, customer service professionals, lawyers, judges, law and business students, consumer advocates, policy makers and ODR systems designers.
