5 | Marqeta Confidential
All customers must be fully verified when calling into Customer Service as
follows:
Sample Script
*Note, this will change based on the specific card programs needs”
Follow this generic sample script:
[Agent]: “Thank you for calling Coinbase, my name is ___________ . How can I help you?
[Caller]: Responds
[Agent]: First I need to verify some information to pull up your account. Who am I speaking with?
[Caller]: Responds
[Agent]: Is the account in your name?
[Caller]: Responds
[Agent]:
If Yes,
If No,
To get started, I will need you to
verify your account information:
Please advise the caller that the
cardholder will need to call in to
discuss any information on the
account.
Please provide me with your full
name as it appears on your
account (customers can go to the
account settings in their Coinbase
account)
If the cardholder calls in and verifies
all of the account information
required, you must obtain their
permission to speak with someone
else regarding their account.
What is the phone number
associated with your account?
OR
When a phone number from which
the customer is calling appears on
your phone, please state the
following:
I see you are calling from phone
number ending in XXXX, is this still
a valid phone number for you?
For verification purposes, please
confirm your date of birth
6 | Marqeta Confidential
Please also confirm your email
address
If a customer is unable to verify the email address or phone number on the account,
agents can still assist the customer by asking for the following information:
●
●
Customer’s full mailing address
Last Four Digits of the Customer’s Coinbase Card Number
Please note that these alternate methods of verification should only be used when a
customer is unable to verify the email address and/or phone number on the
account. Agents should use one or two alternate verification items to replace the
one or two that the customer was unable to verify respectively. (Example - If a
customer cannot verify the email address, the agent can ask for the Mailing address
OR if a customer cannot verify the email address and the phone number, the agent
can ask for the Mailing Address.)
Failed Verification:
If a customer is still unable to fully verify based on the alternative verification
methods, an agent can no longer assist them. A ticket must be opened and
submitted to the Case Management Team with the following information:
● Customer’s User Token
● Email address
● Brief Description of the Customer’s Inquiry AND/OR Why Verification Failed
(provided incorrect email address, only provided first and last name but
missing middle name or second last name) etc.
If a ticket is being escalated only for updates needed as a result of the verification
failure, agents should clearly note that in the ticket. If the ticket is being escalated for
verification failure and the issue for which the customer called, agents should clearly
note the ticket with both issues. No PII information should be included in the ticket
to the Case Management team.
c. Closing: Is there anything else I can assist you with today? If nothing else,
the agent should finish the calls as follows, “Thank you for calling Coinbase.
Have a great day!”
d. Systems and Tools
1. Program Dashboard is currently the only tool needed for
Coinbase cardholder support. Coinbase will be providing info to
Marqeta’s platform so cardholders can be searched via name,
email, phone or card last 4 (if a card has been issued).
7 | Marqeta Confidential
Failed verification requesting to Dispute:
Even if a cardholder is unable to successfully verify their account, if they state that
they would like to initiate a dispute the agent must initiate the dispute. However, the
agent cannot give any other account specific information. They can advise the
cardholder that because the account was not fully verified they cannot discuss other
account specific details. Agent will then follow the disputes process and advise the
cardholder of the disputes time frame and that any notifications will be via email.
Email Verification:
If someone emails in asking for non account specific information the agent
can provide general information about the Coinbase Card by using macros
and editing as needed. If a cardholder emails in asking for account specific
information, when searching the cardholder in AMC it must link to an
account. If it does not bring up an account the macro titled CB Customer
writing from different email that can be used. This macro is simply asking
them to email back in with the email address linked to the Coinbase Card
account.
The agent must ask probing questions and get the customer to provide
account information when necessary. Below are a few examples of when
probing questions should be asked and account specific information should
not be voluntarily given out:
Cardholder emails asking about a transaction that declined - the agent
should respond and ask for the merchant name, date, and amount so that
they can provide the exact reason it declined. By asking the cardholder this
information this will allow the agent to provide accurate information on why
the transaction declined.
Cardholder expecting their physical card but it has passed the 12-15 business
days timeframe - the response to the cardholder should be asking them to
confirm the shipping address where the card should have been shipped to.
The agent should not immediately respond and provide the address that is
listed on the account and ask if that is the correct address.
Asking probing questions allows the response back to the cardholder to be
more personalized and give more information, rather than responding with a
general macro that may not answer all of the questions asked.
8 | Marqeta Confidential
Zendesk checklist prior to responding:
If the agent notices other contacts in the CCs field, the agent should REMOVE them
if they are not a Coinbase email or Marqeta email address listed. To delete the agent
just needs to click the X after the email address and once the Submit as [status] is
selected it will save the changes.
● Ensure the Brand on the upper left shows Coinbase
● Check for grammatical errors, spacing, and punctuation
● CC field does not have any other email addresses listed other than CB or
Marqeta email addresses (if applicable).
● Any other items

Lost/Stolen & Misplaced Card Process
A customer can self-serve via the Coinbase App site to report their card as lost or
stolen:
a. A customer can only self-serve via the Coinbase app to replace a card when it
is lost/stolen. When they do this, a new card will be automatically sent out to
the customer to the address on file. The lost/stolen card number is now
blocked and cannot be used. The new card will contain a new card number.
The agent can terminate the card but will not replace the card. Once the card
is in question is selected in the dashboard, in the upper right hand corner will
see the option for More Actions and will select Terminate card.
b. If a cardholder reports their Physical card as lost or stolen, the Virtual card will
automatically be terminated (or vice versa) and the agent will see the
following reason in the dashboard :Terminated by system due to card belong
to same pan terminated.” Since the 16 digit card number is the same, to
prevent fraud, that is why the other is automatically terminated by the
17 | Marqeta Confidential
system. Once a card is terminated, it cannot be re-activated, the cardholder
will need to request a new card.
c. Non customer calls in and states that they found a cardholders card, the
agent will ask for the name on the card, and the last four digits of the card to
ensure they are in the right account. The agent in the MQ dashboard will
terminate the card after verifying the last 4 digits. The agent will select the
card and in the upper right hand corner select More Actions and select
Terminate card. The agent will then ask the non customer to cut the card up
and dispose of it. The agent will leave notes in the cardholder’s account.

error message if your card does not support 3D Secure. Some banks extra security

cards. We encourage affected customers to switch to a debit card or linked bank
account instead. If you have a credit card linked already, your bank may charge
additional fees for Coinbase credit card purchases. To avoid these fees, switch to
debit card or bank account.

Transaction Tab in AMC Dashboard:
A. Understanding pre-authorized
B. transactions in AMC Dashboard.
When a customer uses their debit card to conduct a Signature/Credit transaction
(i.e. do not enter your PIN), the merchant sends a preset amount, usually the
purchase total, for preauthorization. This amount is placed on hold and removed
from the available balance immediately. Preauthorization can occur at various types
of merchants (hotels, car rental services, gas stations) depending on the merchant
the pending amounts vary. The example below is for a transaction that took place at
a gas station pump. Under the transaction tab the pending/pre authorized amount
under the STATE column will show CLEARED twice for the higher pre authorized
amount, as shown below. Once the merchant sends the actual amount spent, the
amount will appear once as a STATE of CLEARED and second as COMPLETION.
Completion means the transaction has been finalized and the amount will not
change. The difference in the dollar amount will fall off and is available to the
customer.
In the example below $100 were pre authorized but the customer only spent $33.85.
29 | Marqeta Confidential
The number of days it takes for a pre authorized transaction to settle depends on the
merchant. For the example above it took 2 days for the transaction to go into a
COMPLETION state for the actual amount the customer spent.
B. Understand Dispute and what appears as a credit, but is NOT
If the customer has filed a dispute and it has been processed by the dispute team
the agent may see what appears to be a provisional credit for the disputed
transaction but is NOT. Please see the example below:
No provisional credit is issued, the chargeback will appear as an entry in the
transaction tab to acknowledge it was done. Under Type it will read
authorization.clearing.chargeback and that is how the agent can identify that it is
NOT a credit. We want to make sure the customer is told that their dispute is being
acknowledged but the resolution time is subject to the network.
Suggested Script: "Your dispute has been filed and all communication/updates
will be via email. I cannot provide a timeline as to an expected resolution time
as these are subject to the network".
18. Requests for Copies of Cardholder Agreements and Disclosures
a. Direct the customer to the website: coinabaseapp.com/terms
b. Customers may read and/or download the agreements and disclosures
directly from the Coinbase app
19. Adding Coinbase Card to Apple Pay or Google Pay
Coinbase Card is not currently available to be added to apple pay or google pay at
this time, we hope to add this feature in the future.
20. Marketing Solicitation Opt-Out
a. If a customer does not want Coinbase to send them marketing
communications, please advise them to go to their account settings to optout or submit a request via Coinbase’s Support Portal.
30 | Marqeta Confidential
21. Overdrawn Account/Returned Item Inquiry (DDA only)
a. In the event that the cardholder does not have adequate funds in their
Coinbase Account to cover the cost of an ACH Debit from a biller, Coinbase
will reject the ACH Debit, and will send an email notice to the cardholder.
b. The cardholder will then need to work with their biller to resolve.
22. Coinbase Rewards Balance
At this time Coinbase Card in the EU/UK is not offering any rewards.
23. How Customers reset their Logins
a. In the event a cardholder forgets their password, please have them use the
following steps to reset it:
1. Visit the Password Reset page.
2. Enter their email address and click "reset password"
3. This will send an email to the address they entered. They must click the
link in the email to open the new password page.
4. A customer should type in the new password they want to use, twice,
and click the confirmation button.
5. The customer should now be able to use their new password to login to
their Coinbase account.
b. If a cardholder is having trouble resetting their password, they will need to:
1. Reset it from a device they have previously used to access Coinbase
2. Reset it from a location (IP address) they’ve previously used
- If a cardholder no longer has access to a previously validated device or IP
address:
1. Have the cardholder create a support ticket via
https://help.coinbase.com/en/contact-us so Coinbase can have a
member of their security team assist the customer with a password
reset.
2. If the cardholder is resetting the password from a new device, the
Coinbase system may delay the processing time for 24 hours in the
interest of keeping the customer’s account secure. This can be
bypassed by resetting the password from a previously verified device.
Help Pages to help customers manage their account: Link
24. How does the cardholder check their balance in the app?
a. The cardholder can see their coinbase balance on the homepage of the
coinbase app.
i.

Coinbase Card
31 | Marqeta Confidential
b. The cardholder can also check their balance by logging into their account on
the Coinbase website - www.coinbase.com
25. Coinbase Card Funding & Spending Limits
When a cardholder links a bank account as a payment method to deposit funds to
their Coinbase fiat wallet or to purchase cryptocurrency, these funds are
immediately available for buying and selling on Coinbase. However, for security
reasons, the cardholder will not be able to immediately withdraw these funds, spend
them using Coinbase Card, or send from Coinbase.
The cardholder can see when deposited funds will be available for withdrawal prior
to trying to authorize a purchase or deposit, as well as via the confirmation email
that is sent to cardholders.
Note: In the “Order preview” screen, before a customer completes a buy, it will let them know
when the funds will be available. If the cx misses this, they will also receive an email letting
them know when they’ll be able to send/withdraw that money.
32 | Marqeta Confidential
Note: This is an example of the email customers will receive letting them know the amount
available as well how much they can send off of Coinbase immediately. It’s important to
have customers refer back to the email as all information is provided there for them.
a. Funding Limits and Fees
1. Customers can view their limits within the Coinbase Retail section of

28. Decline JIT Transaction Not Permitted
a. If a customer receives this decline, the agent should first check to see if
the merchant is on the prohibited merchant list.
b. Then ask the customer to login into their app or website to see if they
have any notifications from Coinbase in regards to the status of their
account.
c. If the MCC is not part of the restricted merchant list and they are seeing
the JIT translation not permitted decline, their account may be
suspended.
● Agents should be asking probing questions “have you logged
into your account recently?” If the cardholder states they have
not, the agent should ask them to log in while they are on the
call.
● If the cardholder CONFIRMS they have a notification stating that
their account is suspended the agent should let the cardholder
know they can call the same number but select the option ‘for
all other questions’, then option 1 to speak to someone in regards
to the status of their account. HOWEVER the agent must send
an escalation email to the case management team and use the
CB Escalation - Account status macro.
d. Or direct the customer to go to https://help.coinbase.com/en/contactus and submit this form for assistance as well.
These should not be escalated to the case management team, if their account is
truly suspended the customer should either:

30. Suspended/Disable Account
If a cardholder calls in stating that their card declined or is not working, the agent
should review the account in the dashboard looking for decline reasons, card status,
along with card transitions (looking for changes to the card status), and the notes
tab. If nothing stands out please ask the cardholder to log into their app or web
account and ask that they check for notifications about the status of their account
(suspended or disabled). If the cardholder confirms they did have a notification then
the the agent can escalate to the case management team or advise the cardholder:
● Submit the form via https://help.coinbase.com/en/contact-us so that it gets to
the appropriate department. Please advise the CH that they should select the
following, and that will provide them additional information and prompt
additional questions to answer after that.

3.
4.
Choose your product: Coinbase
Let’s Get Started: I need help signing into my account
What is your issue about?: My account is disabled
What seems to be the problem?: I see “account temporarily
disabled”
Or the call dial in and selecting the following options:
1. Dail 1 (888) 908-7930 - Listen to full menu option
2. Select the option ‘for all other questions’
3. Select option 1
In order for a caller to get card support the call 1 (888) 908-7930 and select option 2,
it is very important that if a caller is trying to get an Account Specialist they DO NOT
select option 2 (card support), because that will not give them the option to speak to
an Account Specialist. So it is important the agents as probing question when caller
state they don't get the option ‘for all other questions’:
37 | Marqeta Confidential
Probing questions if caller states they didn’t hear the “ the option ‘for all other
questions’” on the menu:
1.
When you dialed 1 (888) 908-7930, did you listen to all the options then select
the option ‘for all other questions’?
2. During the first option menu what option did you first choose?
If their card is suspended this is what they will see within the App:
31. Refunds

used to make the purchase with the equivalent amount of the purchase at
the time of the refund
b. Merchant refunds can take 3-5 business days.
c. The refund shall be made in cryptocurrency and shall be calculated using the
fiat currency value of the transaction at the prevailing exchange rate.

32. Disputes Handling
Overview
A dispute may be filed when a Cardholder sees a charge that they do not agree with.
Possible reasons a transaction may be disputed:
- wrong amount
- double charged
- goods and/or services did not meet expectations
- billing errors such as mathematical errors
- erroneously posted debits or credits
Requirements
The transaction must be settled first (State = “Completion” in Marqeta Dashboard). A dispute
cannot be started if the transaction is in a Hold or Pending state.
Recommendation
The cardholder should be advised, for NON-FRAUD related disputes, to contact the merchant
prior to filing the dispute to see if they can resolve the issue directly. Often, the merchant can
resolve the issue much more quickly and efficiently.
Note for cardholder:
We cannot provide a timeline as to an expected resolution time as these are subject to the network.
1.
Preliminary Steps
a. Locate the customer’s account in Program Dashboard and locate the
transaction(s) the customer would like to dispute.
b. To confirm the agent has the correct transaction, the following information should
be reviewed with the customer:
i.
Name of Business
ii.
Transaction Amount
iii. Transaction Date - Date less than 13 months old **unless part of the exception
list**
1.
40 | Marqeta Confidential
Once the transaction is identified, the agent will select it with their cursor.
This will direct the agent to view all the transaction details, and the agent
should see the Settlement date, as shown below.
2.
Cardholders are unable to file a dispute for transactions that are over 13
months old. The exception to this rule is if the merchant falls under these
categories :
a. Airline
b. Ticket vendor (concert/sporting event that happens at a later date)
c. Custom Merchandise ordered
3. Is the transaction clearing/posted date over 13 months old
a. Yes: Agent will empathize with the cardholder and advise that they
are unable to file a dispute because of the age of the
transaction.Agent can follow this script:
“Thank you for holding, after reviewing the transaction we have
determined that it is over 13 months old and are unable to initiate a
dispute.”
i.
If via email the agent will respond with "Coinbase Card UK/EU
- No Dispute Rights" macro
b. No: proceed to next steps
c. Confirm no merchant refund has already been issued
d. Confirm the transaction is dispute eligible:
i.
Agents then need to click “Three dots to the far right” to see the Actions available
on the transaction (State: Completion, Type: Authorization.clearing). See example
below of Dispute options available:
41 | Marqeta Confidential
e. Confirm with the cardholder if the card has been lost or stolen.
i.
Yes: Terminate the card to prevent further unauthorized transactions and
advise the cardholder to self-service via the app/website to request a new
card. Agent should also check to see if the card is digitally tokenized to
terminate that as well.
1.
f.
Once the card in question is selected in the dashboard, in the upper
right hand corner will see the option for More Actions and will select
Terminate card. (Check Digital wallet token**last tab)
ii.
No: Continue to next step.

transactions and advise the cardholder to self-service via the
app/website to request a new card
b. No: Continue to next step.
3. Is the transaction clearing/posted date over 13 months old
a. Yes: Agent will empathize with the cardholder and advise that
they are unable to file a dispute because of the age of the
transaction.Agent can follow this script:
“Thank you for holding. After concluding our investigation
into your claim, we have determined that you reported a
transaction as unauthorized more than 13 months after
the transaction posted to your account. The claim is not
sufficient to support our crediting your account for the
amount in question.You have a right to request and
receive the supporting documentation we used in
making this determination.””

agents should do the following:
a. Disputes are highly regulated and agents must flag every
transaction in question to ensure that all disputes are
properly filed and escalated via the process outlined under
the “Disputes Handling” section above.
b. Agents are required to fill out a separate dispute form for
each individual disputed transaction. Program Dashboard
is set-up so that agents cannot move on to the next action
until all necessary information has been included on the
dispute form.
52 | Marqeta Confidential
G. Dispute Processing - Verification Failure
a. This process applies if a cardholder wants to dispute a
transaction but the agent was unable to fully verify the
cardholder's account

c. The name is verified and the customer is able to identify
the account type (ex. is calling about Coinbase card), or
d. Two or more verification questions have been positively
verified (any combination of Name, Address, Email or
Phone)
All standard dispute processes apply to these types of disputes. Once the dispute
has been flagged and opened on behalf of the customer, agents must follow the
regular escalation process as outlined under the Disputes Handling section above.
Any verification issues will be handled by Risk when the customer is contacted in
regards to their dispute.contacted in regards to their dispute.
H. Suspended card due to multiple Disputes
1. A users card may be suspended if they meet the following criteria:
failed dispute >£35 or €35 attempts tagged to “fraud” resolution code
>3 unique days of submitting disputes <£35 or €35 in last 60 days (e.g., if 3 disputes
<£35 or €35 submitted on 11/1 & 2 disputes <£35 or €35 on 12/2 → 2 unique dispute
days)
>6 unique days of submitting disputes <£35 or €35

be canceled, the agent will:
1. Going into Zendesk and finding the dispute case/ticket that is auto generated
by the system when a dispute is filed via the dashboard
2. The agent should then leave a comment on the ticket explaining why the
dispute request needs to be canceled, for example; partner used the card. THE
AGENT SHOULD LEAVE THE TICKET STATUS AS IS.
3. Agent should leave a note on the account, including the dispute ZD ticket
number stating that the chargeback team was notified to cancel the dispute.
33. Complaints Handling
What is a complaint?
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau defines complaints as submissions that
express dissatisfaction with, or communicate suspicion of wrongful conduct by, an
identifiable entity related to a consumer's personal experience with a financial
product or service.
Complaints are NOT to be confused with Consumer Inquiries which are defined as
consumer requests for information about consumer financial products and services.
When To File A Complaint
Scenarios, words, comments or phrases that may be indicators of a complaint
include, but are not limited to the below. NOTE: Even if the complaint is resolved on
the call or email, a case MUST be filed for tracking purposes.
● Cardholder has called in previously for the same reason
○ Example: Cardholder called in two days ago and is calling again today,
cardholder has called in three times within the same day, etc.
○ Example: Cardholder calling in again to find out where their provisional
credit is, because they responded to the email from the Chargeback
team and haven’t received a response, and don’t see the provisional
credit in their account.
●
If the primary reason a cardholder calls is to indicate their dissatisfaction with
and/or program features or services they have received or requested
○ Example: Cardholder states how unhappy they are with the product “I
thought I was going to have a higher spending limit” “I want to close my
account because I can’t buy money orders with this card”.
●
Customer asks about who they can complain to or how to send a complaint or
states they want to file a complaint
54 | Marqeta Confidential
○
Example: Cardholder specifically states “I want to file a complaint”,
“What do I need to do to file a complaint?”
●
States a bank’s practices are misleading, deceptive, unfair, or abusive
○ Example: Cardholder states they signed up for an account because of a
specific account offering and they state any of the terms/words above,
a complaint ticket should be filed.
●
Alleges violation of a specific law/regulation/network rule or questioning the
legality of the policy/practice
○ Example: Cardholder states “This is a Reg E violation.”
●
Threatens legal action (file lawsuit, contact lawyer/attorney, etc.) or contact the
media
○ Example: Cardholder states “I’m going to contact my lawyer”, “I’m going
to post all over social media”, etc.
●
Threatens to write a letter to the Better Business Bureau (BBB), Attorney
General or any regulatory agency
○ Example: Cardholder states “I’m going to file a complaint with the BBB!”
●
Makes a statement to the effect that they will no longer do business/be a
customer of the client as the result of their experience with the program
○ Example: Cardholder states “Close my account.”, “I want to close my
account now”, etc.
●
Alleges fees were billed in error
○ Example: Cardholder states “I’ve been charged three times for the same
fee when it should have been once.”
●
Expletives in user’s responses to us
○ Example: Cardholder is using swear words, cursing, profanity, bad
language, etc.
●
User is expressing clear frustration with the product or the way that their issue
has been handled
○ Example: Some key phrases: “This is wrong.”, “So unfair.”, “How can you
do this?”, “This is taking way too long to resolve!”
●
Money is missing (transfer is delayed, direct deposit is missing or delayed)
55 | Marqeta Confidential
○
○
○
Example: Cardholder is complaining about receiving a message about
a provisional being issued but they don’t see it reflecting in their
account.
Example cardholder complaining that they initiated a transfer to their
card account from an external bank account 2 hours ago and don’t
see the funds.
NOTE: Agent should ask probing questions and utilize tools for
expected timeframes a cardholder should see deposit(s). Only if it is
past this timeframe and “missing”, this should be escalated to the
Case Management team.
●
We declined a dispute
○ Example: A declined dispute can be a network reject, not ruling in their
favor, or if the cardholder fails to provide additional information.
○ NOTE: Agent should search for the dispute in Zendesk to find the
dispute status and confirm if the dispute was declined. In the case that
it was, the agent should also escalate to the Case Management team.
●
User's account was closed due to fraud or suspicious activity
○ Example: Cardholder calls stating they received a notification that
their account is closed.
○ Example: OR cardholder wants to close the account because they are
dissatisfied, escalation should be sent to the case management team
for closed account request.
○ NOTE: If the cardholder requests additional information on why the
decision was made, the agent should escalate to the Case
Management team as Marqeta does not have the visibility into the
reason the decision was made.
●
Pending Transaction Holds
○ Example: Cardholder calls in upset because they have a pending
transaction at a gas station for more than the amount pumped. Agent
should explain how to help avoid that by paying inside and not at the
pump.
○ Example: Cardholder frustrated that they checked out of Hotel but the
pending hold is still on their account. Agent should set the proper
expectation for these types of merchants.
The following is a sample of key words that should trigger a complaint:
●
●
●
Abuse
Unfair
Misleading
56 | Marqeta Confidential
●
●
●
Deceptive
Discrimination
Discriminate
●
●
●
●
Discriminatory
Prejudice
Breach
Racial bias
57 | Marqeta Confidential
When NOT To File A Complaint
Scenarios, words, comments or phrases that may SEEM like indicators of a
complaint but are NOT:
●
●
Cardholder expresses dissatisfaction on anything NON-CARD related
○ Example: All non card related issues must be escalated to the Case
Management team, as we do not need to report on non card related
issues nor can we assist.
Cardholder wants to close their account simply because they don’t use the card
(but are not showing any dissatisfaction.
Steps To File A Complaint
Agents should open Zendesk tickets on all of the scenarios outlined in the
When To File A Complaint section making sure to use the Customer
Complaint macro. This will ensure the ticket is assigned to the appropriate
team within Marqeta for tracking purposes. All agents without Zendesk
access should add issues to the escalation log on the tab corresponding to the
appropriate escalation type. To ensure the cardholder's issues are
immediately resolved, the agent should also send an escalation ticket to the
Case Management team when necessary.
1. Open a new Zendesk ticket
2. Fill in the “Requestor” field on the left of the ticket with their OWN
name - DO NOT COPY THE CUSTOMER NAME OR ASSIGN THE TICKET
TO THE CUSTOMER
3. In the CC field, enter, “Marqeta Customer Complaints”
4. Under “Apply Macro” at the bottom of the middle section, type in
“Customer Complaint.” This will automatically populate all fields in the
ticket including a template in which the agent should include all of the
following fields in the middle section of the ticket:
a. Subject Line
i.
Agent should include the User Token, as well as the
Program Name and the subject should appear as follows:
COMPLAINT | user token | Coinbase
b. Description of the Complaint - Agent should fill in the following
information
● User Token
● Program Name: Coinbase
● Complaint Description:
58 | Marqeta Confidential
Include a full description of the customer’s
complaint:
○ Include any useful or additional information
you feel is relevant or important information
that should be included in the complaint (ZD
#, Transaction details, what action(s) has
been taken)
User Token:
Verbal or Written?
Source of Complaint (Phone/Email):
Date of Complaint:
Is Complaint resolved? Yes/No
○ If Yes, Date Resolved:
○ Brief Summary of Resolution:
○
●
●
●
●
●
If No, Requested Action from Person filing the
Complaint (Include Case Management Escalation
ZD Ticket Number)**If applicable:
Click on the “Submit as Open” button in the bottom right
○
5.
Note: Agents will resolve a lot of these Complaints within their phone/email
interaction with the cardholders. It is still important to share the details in the
template above on how it was resolved and if not resolved, the action that is being
taken to work towards a resolution. If unsure, the agent should ask for assistance.
34. Escalated Call Procedures
Coinbase Escalation Process when a Supervisor is Available - This will be followed by
all agents and supervisors at all times since they all have access to Zendesk
When a customer calls and insists on speaking with a supervisor, the agent should
do the following:
a. Transfer the customer to a supervisor.
b. If the supervisor is not available to take the call, please
inform the customer that for the security of their account
the supervisor will reach out to them via email. In the
Crypto industry there can be a lot of fraud and there is no
way for the customer answering the call, to truly know if
the call back is coming from Coinbase Card Support.
Assure the customer that their issue will be escalated and
a supervisor will reach out via email.
59 | Marqeta Confidential
1.
If it is determined that the issue needs to be
escalated further to Coinbase, the supervisor should
do the following:

by the Case Management team please let the customer
know that their case is important and that a specialist will
reach out via email as soon as their case is next in their
queue.
3. Please try and avoid sending multiple escalations for the
same customer issue. This does not speed up the process,
but just increases the % of escalated cases we send to
Coinbase. Agents should document the notes on a

agent can confirm with the customer that an escalation
was sent on (Date) and that someone will get to them as

case is important and that a specialist will
reach out via email as soon as their case is

increases the % of escalated cases we send to

have contact with the customer, especially if
the customer has an escalation. The agent
can confirm with the customer that an
escalation was sent on (Date) and that

Zendesk - Rerouted Cases Back To Cardholder Support With No Details
Coinbase may route cases to us, that should have come to cardholder support.
When they do, they should include details on what the cardholders inquiry is. If they
do include information it is found under the dash line (-------------), and the agents
should always check to see if there is any helpful information.
The example below is one where no details were provided.
These tickets NEED to be worked and the agents will need to respond with the
Coinbase Rerouted Case Need More Information macro, which goes as follows:

as in the transaction confirmation email.

Hello ,

After reviewing your account, it looks like your transaction was declined due to
insufficient funds. As a reminder: When you make a payment with your Coinbase
Card, you must first fund your local wallet or the asset wallet you are making a
purchase with.
Usually once you’ve added cash from a linked bank account, those funds are
immediately available for buying and selling on Coinbase. However, due to security
reasons, you will not be able to immediately cash out or send these funds, or use
them to make a payment with your Coinbase Card.
You can see when your deposited funds will be available for cashout on the
transaction confirmation screen before you complete a purchase or deposit, as well
as in the transaction confirmation email.
To view your current cashout time frame, sign in to your account.
