Fraud Protection

Understand risk. Make informed payment decisions.

Authentication, velocity controls and monitoring help you spot risky payments while keeping checkout smooth for genuine customers.

Velocity controls

Limits on attempts per card, IP or customer in a time window.

Rules & blocklists

Block known bad cards, emails or locations.

Review workflow

Payments flagged for review can be approved, declined or refunded.

Genuine customers first

Controls are tuned to reduce the chance of blocking legitimate shoppers.

Limits

No tool removes all fraud; disputes are handled under card-scheme rules.

How Payixay helps reduce card fraud

Card-not-present fraud is a constant risk for online merchants. With Payixay, you can combine 3-D Secure authentication, velocity limits, blocklists and a review workflow to spot risky payments and decide how to handle them.


Why Fraud Protection Matters

Every business that accepts payments online can face threats like stolen card details, suspicious patterns, or unauthorised transactions. Without strong protection, fraud can:

  • cause losses from unauthorised charges

  • lead to chargebacks and dispute fees

  • damage customer trust and brand reputation

Payixay’s controls help you block or review risky payments while genuine customers check out as normal.


Key Benefits of Payixay Fraud Protection

Real-Time Monitoring and Alerts

Payments are checked against your rules as they happen, and suspicious ones are flagged for review.

Strong Security Systems

3-D Secure, velocity limits and blocklists work together, and card data is processed on PCI DSS-certified infrastructure.

Reduced Risk and Losses

Spotting risky payments early can help reduce losses from chargebacks and unauthorised charges.

Better Customer Experience

Tuned rules reduce false declines, so genuine customers can complete their purchases.


How Fraud Protection Works

Our controls check signals in each payment to judge whether it looks normal or unusual, including:

  • comparing transaction amounts to typical behaviour

  • comparing card country with IP country

  • counting attempts per card, IP or customer within a time window

When something looks suspicious, Payixay’s rules flag it for review or block it. Flagged payments can then be approved, declined or refunded.


Who it helps

Payixay’s fraud protection is designed for:

  • e-commerce stores with frequent card-not-present sales

  • digital service providers selling online

  • marketplaces with many different buyers and sellers
