Fraud detection

Fraud detection involves identifying fraudulent behaviours by leveraging a customised set of triggers within payment transactions, end-client logins, and authorisations.

  • Enhanced security: Fraud detection helps protect you and your customers by identifying fraudulent behaviours quickly.
  • Reduced losses: Early detection minimises financial losses due to fraudulent transactions.
  • Preserved reputation: Effective fraud prevention maintains trust with clients and partners.

Real-time validation checks

Real-time validation checks play a crucial role in assessing payments before execution. These checks determine whether a payment should be approved, halted, or subject to strong customer authentication (SCA).

  • Improved decision-making: Assessing payments in real-time ensures accurate and timely decisions on approval or rejection.
  • Compliance: Compliance with regulations is facilitated by real-time validation checks.
  • Efficient operations: Streamlined processes lead to faster payment execution.
