Build Better Transaction Risk Analysis (TRA) Models with Consumer PII Data

Sweeping changes in policy, regulations and customer experience expectations are generating increased speed of innovation in the payments space – through machine learning-based fraud systems and many upcoming changes in the pre-authorization stages of transaction processing. 

More specifically, PSD2 regulations dictate how fraud review must be conducted in European transactions:

  • Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) is mandated on all European transactions unless an exemption is granted. It’s critical that PSPs engage in a strategy that maximises exemptions to reduce consumer friction.
  • Transaction Risk Analysis (TRA) is a consistent mechanism to allow acquirer-processors to share merchant intelligence with issuers. Treating this as a strategic differentiator will result in increased authorization rates and minimized friction.

Ekata helps you build better TRA models, enabling you to offer your end-users more SCA exemptions and higher authorization rates. Contact our experts to learn more.

PSD2 SCA: How Ready Are Issuers?

PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) provides rich opportunities for issuers should they strategize accordingly. Since issuers want to stay “front of wallet,” it is in their best interest to focus specifically on the customer experience. For issuers and the entire payments ecosystem, any friction experienced by the consumer during authorizations means a potential for abandoning a transaction and ultimately lost revenue.
