Combatting the threat of payment fraud
Card fraud is an ongoing concern for businesses trading online, accounting for about half of all payment fraud in the UK, according to UK Finance’s annual fraud report.
The introduction of Strong Customer Authentication has helped reduce online payment fraud in recent years. Meanwhile, the work of banks, payment providers, card brands and others prevents about £1 billion of attempted card fraud every year, according to the report.
But the criminals continue to diversify in their attempts to defraud consumers. So how can you protect your customers’ data and your business’ reputation, while still maximising your sales?
