Payeezy Gateway Advanced Fraud Filters

Payeezy Gateway Advanced Fraud Filters

 

Payeezy Gateway now offers advance fraud filters to help reduce fraudulent transactions which in turn can help reduce chargebacks. These new features allow you to create positive and negative lists for:

  • IP Address
  • Credit Card Number (that is not tokenized)
  • Email Address or Domain
  • Reference Number
  • Billing Address
  • Country

While you can create these fraud filters from the Administration tab within the Payeezy Gateway RPM, you can also easily create new filters from the Transaction Search list simply by clicking on a transaction and then by selecting "Fraud Filter."

New Reporting has been added to the Reporting area of the RPM to allow you to view a detailed report of transactions that have been blocked by your custom fraud filters.

 

Setup A New Filter From the Administration Tab

To enable new fraud filters from the RPM, log into Payeezy Gateway and go to the Administration tab and choose Fraud Filters.

  • Select whether or not you want to create a Positive or a Negative filter.

Note: Positive Filters will override Negative filters.

  • Select the type of filter you would like to create.
  • Enter the value for the filter.
  • Click Save.

 

Setup A New Filter Using the Transaction Search

You may also use the Transaction Search list to create new Fraud Filters.

  • Navigate to the Transaction Search tab and run a search
  • Highlight the transaction you which to create a new filter and select "Fraud Filters."
  • You will be presented with options to create a new filter. Choose the options for your new filter(s) and select Save.
