We are happy to announce a new feature that will help business owners keep track of suspicious behaviors, and prevent repetitive fraud. Orders marked as suspicious will help alert businesses as to when they should collect more information from customers (for dispute purposes).
Online ordering and eCommerce are becoming a main revenue stream for brick-and-mortar businesses, especially restaurants, and especially in this COVID-19 era. But with the growth of eCommerce, there is also a growth in online fraud.
Every restaurant owner knows the feeling of preparing a large delivery order only to find out that the customer used a stolen card, and the payment was forfeited. And if it worked for the thieves once, they will do it again and again -- and again.
Fraudulent orders and chargebacks are growing exponentially alongside eCommerce growth and we are here to help fight them! We are happy to announce a new feature that will help you keep track of suspicious behaviors, and prevent repetitive fraud.
