Verify accounts quickly and seamlessly – and transact with confidence

Payment fraud will cost merchants an estimated US$48b in 2023, but pre-transaction account verification can help prevent fraud and mitigate losses across the customer lifecycle.

Verification is not always straightforward – it involves checking account numbers and balances, ensuring that accounts are valid, confirming transactional authority, identifying potential risk, and much more.

To help you overcome these challenges, we offer unique, dual-method account verification that empowers you to implement a dynamic verification workflow. This in turn triggers the most appropriate account verification method for your needs and, importantly, protects the customer experience.

With our integrated bank database and open banking solution, you can verify accounts, safeguard payments and reduce unauthorised returns – all in real time and via a single API:

  • Verify vendor and client bank account information for both individuals and businesses
  • Ensure accounts are valid and in good standing, and that the individual is authorised to act on the account
  • Access network insights to flag accounts which may be at particularly high risk of fraud
