WHAT IT CATCHES
ShieldEngine™ reads bills written in 95+ languages. Hand it a hotel folio from Tokyo, a restaurant receipt from Rome, or a tour invoice from Mexico City — it processes the document, translates the charges internally, and flags anything that doesn't add up.
DCC is a common scam where a merchant or ATM offers to charge you in your home currency at an exchange rate they control — almost always worse than your bank's rate. ShieldEngine™ detects when this has happened and flags the overcharge so you can dispute it before you leave.
Hotels routinely add resort fees, destination fees, amenity fees, and early checkout penalties that were never clearly disclosed at booking. ShieldEngine™ scans the itemized folio and flags every charge that wasn't properly disclosed.
Restaurants in tourist areas sometimes add service charges, cover charges, or gratuity on top of gratuity. ShieldEngine™ scans the itemized bill and flags anything added without proper notice.
Even when traveling internationally, many consumer protections still apply — especially if you booked through a U.S.-based platform or paid with a U.S. credit card. ShieldEngine™ generates dispute filings citing FTC mandatory disclosure rules, Regulation Z chargeback rights, or state consumer protection statutes.
Tour operators frequently add undisclosed fees, change itineraries without refunds, or charge for services not rendered. ShieldEngine™ reviews the invoice against what was promised and flags every discrepancy.
REAL SCENARIOS
Problem: A $40/night resort fee wasn't mentioned during booking.
ShieldEngine™ flags the undisclosed fee and generates a dispute filing citing FTC mandatory disclosure rules.
Problem: An ATM in Europe offered to charge in USD at a rate 8% worse than your bank.
ShieldEngine™ identifies the DCC overcharge on your statement and drafts a chargeback request citing Regulation Z.
Problem: A tourist-area restaurant added 18% service charge plus a separate 15% gratuity line.
ShieldEngine™ flags the duplicate charge and identifies which line was added without disclosure.
Problem: A tour company charged a 'fuel surcharge' not mentioned in the booking confirmation.
ShieldEngine™ compares the invoice to the booking terms and generates a dispute filing for the undisclosed charge.
When you pay with a foreign card abroad, merchants and ATMs often offer to charge you in your home currency instead of the local one. This is called Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC). The exchange rate they use is almost always 3–8% worse than your bank's rate — and the merchant keeps the difference. ShieldEngine™ detects DCC charges on your bill and flags the overcharge so you can dispute it with your card issuer.
Always choose to pay in local currency. ShieldEngine™ will tell you if you were charged in your home currency without consent.
