Our global fraud protection helps detect and block fraud by using machine learning that examines data across billions of global transactions. It’s built right into your website and requires no additional work.

By learning from billions of sales each year, our global fraud protection assigns a risk score to each transaction and automatically blocks high-risk charges before it ever hits your business.

What Triggers Fraud Protection?

• Partnerships with Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and others, allow us to use data like TC40s, SAFE reports, and early dispute notifications to identify fraudulent activity.
• Proxy detection is used to identify IP spoofing and proxy usage, both of which are leading indications of fraud. We can also use the customer’s email domain to determine if a payment is fraudulent.
• With billions of transactions happening through our network every year, we can use historical card data to spot patterns across years of data.

We also use more standard fraud detection methods like customer detail matching to ensure that the billing, shipping, and other properties match the customer information. Taking this a step further, we can use a customer’s data to track how many distinct countries the card was used in the past day. A card registered in Canada having been used in three or more countries in the past 24 hours can be assigned a level of fraud probability and handled accordingly
