A tailored approach to authentication strategies

While card-not-present (CNP) fraud keeps rising, issuers are challenged to prevent fraud, minimize false declines, and deliver seamless customer experiences. With Visa Consumer Authentication Service, issuers can benefit from network agnostic, real-time risk scoring and tailored rules management. VCAS can help ensure an optimized approach to authentication that helps stop fraud at the beginning of the process.
