How it Works

Easy Set-up

Using the wizard in Fraud Interface Manager, you set up and deploy filters to perform real-time screening of transactions and escalate or automatically reject suspicious activity.

Transaction Review

You can pull transaction reports and review transactions that have triggered a filter. Based on the information presented, you decide to accept or reject the transaction.

Observer vs. Active Modes

If you are just getting started you can deploy your filters in observe mode and the system will provide detailed reports on your transactions without taking action. Once you are confident that the filters are accurately set up for your business, you can deploy them in active mode and the system will automatically accept, reject or queue transactions for your review.

Performance Review

You can judge the effectiveness of a filter by reviewing statistics, like how many times it was triggered. Based on the actual performance, you can make informed decisions about how to best adjust filters for your business.
