Real-time Risk Assessment

Admeris' dynamic, real-time risk assessment system reduces fraud by ensuring that purchases by your customers are in fact legitimate.

Credit Card Fraud Techniques Are Becoming More Advanced

Techniques used in online card-not-present fraud are becoming more and more sophisticated. Basic risk-management tools can only determine if a credit card is legitimate or if the user-entered account information matches that stored on record. However, with the rise of identity theft, fraudsters are more likely to be able to pose as the legitimate card holder and bypass standard fraud checks.

A Better Approach to Fraud Prevention

Instead of simply verifying the authenticity of the credit card information used for the purchase, our fraud screening identifies if the purchaser is the legitimate cardholder.

Using traits and patterns that are associated with fraudulent orders, we can provide e-commerce businesses with the necessary information to detect fraudulent orders before the payment is even processed.

How it Works

Admeris participates in a mutual collaboration network for fraud screening, connecting and consisting of over 6,000 e-commerce businesses and partners. By combining feedback and resources from the network, accurate statistical fraud models are generated and are used to combat emerging fraud trends.

When a request is made to our system, the provided information evaluated against our fraud models to generate a risk profile, which includes a numeric risk score. Merchants can reduce chargebacks effectively by limiting the threshold of risk score or restricting certain parameters such as country of origin. The results are computed and returned in less than one second.

Parameters checked by our system include:

  • Geolocation Analysis - utilizes geographic boundaries on the Internet, comparing this with client billing address information
  • Bank Number Check - used for international credit cards which do not support address verification, the method checks the issuing bank BIN (Bank Identification Number) and matches the country where the cardholder is resident.
  • Known Proxy Detection - reduces the use of known proxies by fraudsters when used by geolocation controls
  • High-Risk E-mail Address Database - for cross-referencing suspicious email addresses
