Reason-code evidence guidance for WooCommerce chargebacks: demo dispute, per-code checklists, and a route to build your packet at parryhq.com.

== Description ==

Parry turns your chargeback evidence into a review-ready packet: a case summary, a rebuttal draft, a chronological timeline, and labeled exhibits matched to the dispute's reason code. This plugin brings Parry's reason-code guidance into your WooCommerce admin, under **WooCommerce → Parry**.

**What you get**

* A clearly-labeled **demo dispute** (Visa 13.1 — Product not received, $129.00) with a live evidence deadline countdown, so you can see exactly what the guidance looks like.
* An interactive **reason-code lookup** for the codes Parry covers today: Visa 13.1 (Product not received), 13.2 (Canceled recurring), 13.3 (Not as described or defective), 13.6 / 13.7 (Credit not processed), and 10.4 (Fraudulent, card-not-present) — plus a general-evidence fallback for anything not listed. Each code shows what the claim means in plain English, the single fact that carries the case, and a tailored evidence checklist in packet reading order.
* A plain-English explainer of **where your real disputes live**: WooCommerce itself has no dispute screen. WooPayments merchants find disputes under Payments → Disputes; direct Stripe accounts in the Stripe Dashboard; PayPal in its Resolution Center. Parry prepares the packet — you submit it there.
* A **"Build my evidence packet with Parry"** button that takes you to parryhq.com, where the full service ($10 your first month with FIRSTMONTH10, then $29/mo, up to 5 packets a month, cancel anytime) assembles your packet. You review every fact and submit it yourself — Parry never submits in your name and never guarantees an outcome; your bank decides.

**What v1 deliberately does not do**

Parry v1 is guidance-only by design: it reads no live dispute records, connects to no payment gateway, makes no remote requests, stores no settings, and collects no data. There is nothing to configure. That is the same posture as the Parry Stripe App (v0.1.1, under Marketplace review).

**Support**

Questions or a deadline that's uncomfortably close? Email support@parryhq.com. Send case documents with the subject "Parry case" — never email full card numbers or card images.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/parry-chargeback-evidence` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress.
3. WooCommerce must be installed and active — the plugin will not activate without it.
4. Go to **WooCommerce → Parry** in your admin menu.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does Parry read my live disputes? =

No. V1 is guidance-only: it shows a clearly-labeled demo dispute and a reason-code lookup. It never connects to WooPayments, Stripe, or PayPal, and never reads order or payment data.

= Where do I actually submit evidence for a dispute? =

In your payment gateway, not in WooCommerce. WooPayments: Payments → Disputes in this admin. Direct Stripe: Stripe Dashboard → Payments → Disputes. PayPal: Resolution Center. The Parry page links to the WooCommerce guide for managing disputes.

= Why is there nothing to configure? =

Because v1 is an informational panel. Your subscription, cases, and packets live at parryhq.com — the plugin's job is to put the right checklist in front of you while you work a dispute.

= What does Parry cost? =

$29/mo, first month $10 with promo code FIRSTMONTH10, up to 5 packets a month, cancel anytime. The plugin itself is free; the packet service is at parryhq.com.

= Does the plugin send any of my data anywhere? =

No. It makes no remote requests and stores nothing. The only external links are the ones you click (parryhq.com, the WooCommerce disputes guide, and the support email link).

== Privacy ==
