Role Description

arenaflex is seeking an experienced Customer Support Specialist to deliver fast, empathetic Level 1 live chat support for debit cards and banking. You'll be the first touch for customers, resolving common issues, triaging edge cases, and escalating clearly when needed. This role is ideal for someone with experience in a high-quality financial services support environment, such as cards, banking, brokerage, or payments. Experience at a top-tier provider or knowledge of crypto products is a plus.

Responsibilities

* Frontline Live Chat: Handle inbound chats for debit card and banking topics, including activation, PIN, card lock/unlock, balance/limits, declines, merchant pending/adjustments, replacement, travel notices, address updates, name updates, and basic account verification.

• Clear Triage & Escalation: Use runbooks and decision trees to determine next steps; create crisp internal notes with all required artifacts (screenshots, logs, merchant info) for Level 2/partner teams.
• Disputes Intake (Reg E/EFTA): Guide customers through dispute intake; collect evidence and forms; set expectations and hand off to investigators.
• Risk & Fraud Awareness: Spot suspicious patterns (ATO signals, repeated declines, card present/not present anomalies) and escalate per policy.
• Documentation & Content: Propose updates to macros, runbooks, and help center articles based on chat learnings; tag feedback for Product and Risk.
• Tooling Mastery: Work efficiently in Zendesk (or similar) – shortcuts, macros, tags, views – to reduce handle time while maintaining quality.
• Quality & Voice: Deliver accurate, friendly, brand-aligned written communications; meet QA standards and style guidelines.

Qualifications

* Experience: 1-3+ years in customer support for cards, banking, brokerage, or payments, including live chat experience.

• Domain Basics: Understanding of card lifecycle (auth vs. settlement), common decline reasons, charge/reversal timelines, and banking rails (ACH/wires/RTP at a high level).
• Compliance Awareness: Familiar with KYC/AML basics, OFAC screening conceptually, Reg E dispute fundamentals, and secure handling of PII.
• Communication: Fluent, crisp English; excellent written tone; 50+ WPM typing with high accuracy.
• Problem Solving: Organized troubleshooting, good judgment on when to escalate, and comfort operating with partial information.
• Systems: Proficiency with Zendesk (or similar), documentation tools (Notion/Confluence), and basic reporting/QA workflows.
• Nice to Have: Crypto support experience (wallet/send/receive basics; fees/gas; network differences such as Solana/EVM); exposure to card processors or sponsor banks (Marqeta/Galileo/Lithic) a plus.
