Reduces Fraud
Many merchants selling illegal goods have developed effective disguises and strategies to mask illegal activities.
That’s why VikingCloud’s Web Risk Monitoring solution gives processors the ability to automatically enroll all merchants to root out suspicious activity, such as password-protected webpages that merchants may be using to sell illegal or prohibited goods.
VikingCloud’s built-in Automated Merchant Discovery tool performs key steps to automatically identify a merchant's potential URLs from multiple sources, perform onboarding scans, quickly review those potential URLs and set up persistent monitoring from a single screen.
As an added level of protection, VikingCloud’s team of risk and compliance experts regularly keep acquirers updated on changing rules and regulations as part of the managed solution.
To streamline onboarding and reduce your compliance risk, VikingCloud’s Web Risk Monitoring solution includes an Application Programming Interface (API) feature. By leveraging our API, you can automate merchant URL enrollment and management, streamlining the onboarding process and reducing manual effort.
