This integration allows fintechs to detect threats like repeated login attempts across multiple accounts, enabling faster responses to suspicious activities. The solution eliminates the need for complex coding or cumbersome reporting, making it highly adaptable for fintechs.
“Combating fraud as a fintech is swift and complex. Without the right tools, the speed of crime will continue to outpace the speed of prevention,” said Dhiraj Bhat, Product Lead, Fraud Solutions of Unit21. “Embedding Fingerprint’s device intelligence technology into Unit21 brings real-time fraud prevention to the next level, empowering teams to prevent threats and not just review them after the fact.”
The partnership enhances Unit21’s ability to address sophisticated fraud challenges. By using persistent, accurate device IDs and real-time Smart Signals like Bot Detection and VPN Detection, the platform can combat fraud types such as credential stuffing, where bots attempt logins across multiple accounts, and elder scams, which involve unrecognized devices or IP geolocation mismatches. It also detects tech support scams through abnormal device behavior and geolocation spoofing, ensuring comprehensive protection.
Fingerprint’s device intelligence complements Unit21’s existing capabilities, including real-time fraud detection, dynamic risk modeling, and scalable compliance automation. This integration provides fintechs with a robust, flexible platform to proactively mitigate risks, reducing the financial and reputational impact of fraud.
