Direct Answer:

Refunds and disputes are critical financial events that require immediate attention, yet they often go unnoticed until you manually check your dashboard. Missing a dispute notification can lead to lost revenue and chargeback fees if you do not respond with evidence in time. Relying on manual login sessions creates a dangerous gap where these urgent issues can slip through the cracks.
