# AcceptDispute

`POST /v2/disputes/{dispute_id}/accept`

Accepts the loss on a dispute. Square returns the disputed amount to the cardholder and
updates the dispute state to ACCEPTED.

Square debits the disputed amount from the seller’s Square account. If the Square account
does not have sufficient funds, Square debits the associated bank account.
