Limited integration effort

How does it work?

The Fraud Risk Indicator (FRI) is a solution on top of IBAN-Name Check: an add-on to the current API. Essentially, the add-on provides additional data points; risk indicators that will help the bank to determine whether there’s an increased risk or a decreased risk of fraud.

Fraud Detection & Monitoring

The FRI is meant for implementation at the Fraud Detection / Transaction Monitoring system, not in the front-end.

This helps to prevent fraud because additional fraud cases can be spotted upon payment initiation, thanks to risk increasers, like a “hit” in the PolitieNL database or the fact that an account is newly opened.

Lowers the number of false positives

The FRI helps to lower the number of false positives on the fraud analysts backlog, thanks to risk decreasers like the number of account holders.

for Banks

PayID
With SurePay PayID customers can now easily and securely pay in your Banking App to friends and acquaintances on their contact list. In the future we will add more identification options to this service. SurePay PayID uses the smart IBAN-Name Check algorithm for this.
European IBAN-Name Check
The IBAN-Name Check on international accounts. This enables organisations to check that the account information entered matches the intended beneficiary when initiating cross-border payments.
Switch Check
A service that is provided by the banks due to regulation to make it easy for a consumer to switch from a bank. When a customer has moved to a new bank the company needs to ask the customer to update their payment details. This can easily be done by the Switch Check; if the IBAN-Name Check matching result is a “Match” or “Close Match” and the switching service is “active”, the new correct IBAN of the user will be provided. Companies can automatically update the correct payment details and skip multiple steps in the process.
