The benefits of our unique approach to detecting fraud
Understanding the impact of referrals
Referred applications are not necessarily a bad thing. A referred application simply means we need to review an application further. Perhaps we require supporting information, we need to verify an applicant’s identity, or we need to know more about their income and expenditure.
These additional checks, which may be either manual or automated, are vital when it comes to identifying and combating fraud events.
So, instead of worrying too much about referral rates, take a closer look at your acceptance rates. Thanks to our fraud detection measures, we are able to swiftly identify fraud events and accept legitimate applicants where other lenders would simply decline them at the first glance. This results in improved accept rates and, ultimately, converted customers.
