A negative database, in Credit Card terms, refers to a list of Credit Card owners who chargeback a lot. Negative databases are usually maintained by Credit Card companies.

The term negative database also refers to a security concept in database terms where contrary to traditional databases, such database saves attributes that cannot be associated with a certain entry.[1][2]
