Fraud Freedom will provide cryptocurrency brokers and exchanges indemnification for fraud-related chargebacks. It will also help in identifying suspicious activity and prevent fraudulent purchases, trades or distributions of cryptocurrency.
The solution utilises artificial intelligence as well as real-time learning from across Forter’s network to identify threats.
According to the company, the use of Fraud Freedom will help organisations reduce financial burden associated with fraudulent chargebacks. It also automates transaction review reducing operating costs.
FIS Worldpay EVP and Merchant Solutions Global eCommerce head Shane Happach said: “The cryptocurrency market is growing rapidly, which is exciting to see, but the reality is that it is a high-risk sector for fraud that demands innovative solutions.
