Smarter Fraud Prevention

Fraud prevention is no longer just about detecting suspicious activity after it happens.

Modern payment fraud requires proactive controls that identify risk before funds leave an account. By combining account verification, Open Banking intelligence and enhanced payment data, organisations can make better decisions and stop more fraud at source.

The Challenge

Payment fraud continues to evolve.

Criminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated, using social engineering, impersonation scams, account takeover techniques and mule accounts to divert funds.

Traditional payment controls often rely on identifying fraud after it occurs. By that point, recovering funds can be difficult, costly and time-consuming.

Organisations need greater confidence before payments are approved.

Account Verification Is Only the Beginning

Confirmation of Payee and Verification of Payee have transformed the payment landscape by helping validate account ownership before payments are made.

These services provide an essential first layer of protection by helping ensure that account details belong to the intended recipient.

But fraudsters continually adapt.

To stay ahead, organisations need broader payment intelligence and stronger risk signals throughout the payment journey.

A More Intelligent Approach to Fraud Prevention

Confirmation Of Payee

Verify the Recipient
Confirm that payment details belong to the intended individual or organisation before funds are released.

Security 1

Detect Unusual Risk Signals
Use enriched payment intelligence to identify higher-risk accounts and suspicious payment activity.

Payment Sent

Reduce False Positives
Better data means fewer genuine payments are incorrectly stopped, improving customer experience and operational efficiency.

Conversion

Protect the Entire Payment Journey
Fraud prevention should not start at the point of payment. Verification can be applied during onboarding, supplier setup, account changes and payment initiation.
