Traffic Management & Automated Cascading Systems

Based on our vast experience in onine processing, we know that transactions are not always approved. That’s why Payteka presents a traffic management and cascading system, offering alternative solutions for declined transactions. Payteka’s sophisticated traffic management system will send the transaction to the acquiring bank with the highest approval ratio based on cardholder BIN number. In the case of a transaction decline response, Payteka’s cascading system will divert transactions to the next pre-defined acquiring bank.

3D Secure

3D Secure is the payment industry’s online authentication standard developed by major credit card associations. This authentication requires the cardholder to do a onetime online registration process for their card in order to make future purchases. The cardholder answers several security questions that stay between the cardholder and card issuer. You choose a password and agree on a secret phase that will be used during future online transactions. 3D Secure payments with Payteka protect merchants from excessive chargebacks, negative processing history, account closure and black listing records.

As a part of our complete fraud monitoring, detection and prevention, Payteka employs a multi-dimensional approach with a layered security policy and technology that keeps protection and profitability controlled during each stage of the payment life cycle:

  • Account Registration
    Monitor and assess consumer account registration risk
  • Payment Authentication
    Analyze and identify security strategies to verify genuine customers
  • Transaction Processing
    Recognise, identify and review high-risk transactions based on individual risk profiles
  • Dispute and Recovery
    Control and resolve chargeback disputes and recover losses
  • Evaluation and Refinement
    Examine and improve fraud performance against trends

Chargeback

A chargeback dispute, also known as a financial deduction, can be a costly expense for your business. This is when a customer decides to reverse a charge, leaving the merchant responsible. Payteka can reduce your chargeback expenses. In the case of a chargeback, we can represent merchants. Our risk management team will collect all user KYC and available details and will stand for merchants and try to have the chargeback canceled.

Dynamic Descriptor

A general descriptor is the identification name of the purchase that appears on monthly credit card statements, normally listed under merchants’ acquiring banks. A dynamic descriptor is a verification tool that gives a definition of the charge to the end user on their credit card statement, in turn reducing the risk of chargebacks.

A dynamic descriptor gives our merchants the ability to manage the description on credit card statements. With approved support from an acquiring bank that support this feature, Payteka can use this tool to allow merchants to customize descriptor information to better suit their needs. By applying tools such as the dynamic descriptor, Payteka protects merchants from unnecessary chargebacks, negative historical processing activity, account closure and black listing records.
