Fraud prevention

Approve more legitimate orders while stopping risky payment traffic earlier.

OpenPath fraud controls are built around transaction context, configurable filters, location intelligence, and automatic action — so merchants can protect revenue without treating every order the same way.

01

Custom configuration

Tailor fraud filters around the buyer profile, products, geographies, and risk signals that matter to your business.

02

Automatic action

Apply rules in real time so suspicious customers and card-testing traffic do not ruin payment performance.

03

Better intelligence

Gather more payment context and decide which sales are safe enough to accept.

Location detection and control

Detect where the purchase is coming from, where the customer banks, and where the card was issued.

OpenPath can evaluate numerous transaction locations and apply controls for countries, cities, states, buyer distance from home, and the distance between shipping and billing addresses.

Real-time options give merchants more control over who buys and help stop fraudsters using stolen cards before the damage spreads.

Threat model

Fraud is not random — it is targeted, organized, and expensive.

The growing danger

  • Professional groups can create waves of online retail fraud attempts.
  • Criminals target specific stores and platforms that appear easy to exploit.
  • Card testing attacks can put merchant accounts at risk.

OpenPath response

  • Analyze every buyer transaction against configured filters.
  • Apply real-time controls before risky transactions create chargebacks.
  • Notify teams before questionable activity becomes a larger problem.
