AFS and Fiserv to Find New Ways to Detect and Prevent Frauds
TrueChecks from AFS will enable Fiserv clients to mitigate fraud, prevent losses, and protect account holders by providing a proactive, at-the-point-of-presentment approach to check fraud detection. Accessible through a web portal or integrated through an API, TrueChecks delivers real-time responses on counterfeit, nonsufficient funds (NSF), Closed Account, Duplicate and other fraudulent items, regardless of the deposit channel. TrueChecks will be available to Fiserv clients for batch deposits made in any channel, and will provide real-time responses for mobile deposits and those made via tMagic™ for DNA®, which automates the capture, imaging and entry of paper-based transactions directly into the DNA account processing platform from Fiserv.
“As fraudsters continue to find new schemes to commit fraud in all payment types, including checks, it is important that financial institutions have the tools they need to mitigate risk and protect themselves and their customers,” said Jordan Bothwell, VP, Strategic Partnerships at AFS.
Jordan added, “Together with Fiserv we will meet more financial organizations’ needs for robust solutions to combat fraud.”
With this new risk mitigation offering, Fiserv clients have access to robust options to help prevent losses and identify fraudulent deposits before they are accepted.
