Card Testing Outpacing Manual Review
The merchant services provider's existing approach to card testing detection was tedious and manual, looking for indicators like velocity spikes, repeated prefixes, and odd transaction amounts across their portfolio by eye. As a result, incidents could go undetected until charges had already been settled. They needed a way to catch these patterns automatically, at scale, or risk missing even more attacks than before.
Automated Card-Testing Detection, Built to Outlast AI-Generated Fraud
The client adopted the card-testing detection capability within FraudNet’s Merchant Risk Monitoring solution, replacing manual review with continuous, automated monitoring across the entire merchant portfolio.

Traceable Decision-Making
Investigators get the full picture behind every flag, backed by a complete, auditable history of how each decision was made.

Automated Action Orchestration
Every flagged signal rolls up to the merchant’s entity record and triggers an alert, so investigators work from a consolidated view instead of swiveling chairs.

Configurable Detection Rules
Fraud ops can adjust the rules themselves, right in the portal, so keeping pace with new attack patterns takes minutes instead of a chunk of someone's day.

Continuous Range-Level Monitoring
The platform autonomously tracks patterns across ranges of related card numbers instead of point reviewing single transactions, so the full portfolio stays covered around the clock.
Real-Time Detection at Portfolio Scale
The full merchant portfolio can now be scanned in minutes to identify potential card testing incidents, keeping pace even as AI accelerates the scale and speed of these attacks industry-wide.
Card testing used to mean poring over transaction lists by hand, hoping to catch a pattern before it cost us. Now detection runs automatically, every day, and gives our team their time back, all while staying fully compliant with how we handle card data.
