This rapidly growing fraud is your biggest existential threat

Authorized push payment fraud (or APP fraud) is a type of fraud in which fraudsters manipulate their victims into sending them real-time payments under false pretences, generally using social engineering and impersonation.

APP fraud accounts for 75% of all digital banking fraud losses, and neobanks and instant money transfer apps are prime targets for tech-savvy fraudsters looking to set up money mule and exit accounts. This exposes you to ruinous fees, reputational damage, and potential blacklisting by the wider financial industry—all putting at risk the frictionless convenience that drives your customer acquisition & retention.

High-tech protection vs. high-stakes fraud

APP fraud requires a large number of mule accounts to keep the money moving. So if you have a receiving account, you likely have sleeper mule accounts waiting to be activated. Find them with Transaction Forensic detectors specifically designed to identify behaviors associated with APP fraud, such as anomalous money flows, out-of-the ordinary transaction information.

Perpetual KYC, network-wide

It's not enough to prevent one phony onboarding or identify one money mule account. When one suspect is unmasked, the combined capabilities of our entire product range check their info against every other bit of data at your disposal. Documentation, PII, onboarding behaviors, and content shared across accounts can reveal fraud rings and criminal enterprises even if they haven't yet sprung into action. This AI-powered approach adapts with and learns from each new customer and each new fraudster to give you end-to-end, perpetual KYC (pKYC).
