SOLUTION

ACH Fraud

Proactively uncover unauthorized ACH credits and debits prior to releasing funds.

Powerful prevention to combat ACH fraud

With ACH volume growing annually, customers are demanding increasing speed and convenience. Financial institutions need a powerful ACH monitoring solution now more than ever.

Verafin’s analytics help you protect both your consumer and corporate customers against fraudulent payment and debit schemes. You gain full coverage against prevalent fraudulent transfer scenarios, such as Business Email Compromise (BEC), hijacked payroll, consumer and corporate online account takeover, in addition to the ability to uncover numerous scams such as romance, lottery, and work-from-home schemes involving Peer-to-Peer (P2P) functionality.

Features

SUSPICIOUS ONLINE ACCOUNT ACCESS

Verafin monitors your customers’ online accounts to uncover unusual access. Unusual online account access elevates the risk associated with an ACH transfer, helping you act before a criminal can initiate a fraudulent withdrawal.

CROSS-CHANNEL FRAUD ANALYTICS

Verafin provides enhanced ACH transaction analysis through the examination of cross-channel activity, such as demographic changes to a customer’s account; and multiple data sources such as online banking systems to boost risk in the presence of unusual behavior.

UNUSUAL PAYMENT & DEPOSIT ALERTS

Behavior-based analysis alerts you to ACH payments and debits that are unusual for a customer based on their past behavior, including coverage for corporate customers using the ACH channel. Verafin alerts you to potentially fraudulent originated credits, as well as unusual payroll file alterations.

ACH SCAM ALERTS

Get alerted when it appears either a consumer or corporate customer is being victimized by a known criminal scam — including Business Email Compromise or Vendor Impersonation Fraud — before losses can occur.

Benefits

Monitor ACH transfers in real time

Review alerts before ACH files are released to the Federal Reserve, helping you stop losses and avoid drawn out attempts to retrieve fraudulently transferred funds.

Increase your payee confidence

Significantly reduce time spent on customer call backs to verify transactions. In addition to demographic and transactional factors, Verafin utilizes the power of the Verafin Cloud, analyzing ACH payments made by customers at financial institutions across its cloud environment to determine the validity of a receiving account.

Stay a step ahead through innovation

Criminals are fast moving. As a cloud provider, Verafin releases software enhancements on a weekly basis, meaning you are always protected by the latest analytical advancements.
