"No product in the whole list was scored higher by an individual judge than AFD's BankFinder" dmBusiness magazine April 2001 |
PREVENT ERRORS, HIGHLIGHT FRAUD
Payments made by direct debit will more than double over the next 10
years. Yet just one sort-code error or one digit wrong in a credit card number
results in rejected transactions and declined payments. BankFinder uses
sophisticated checks to prevent these errors and highlight potential fraud
attempts while speeding up data entry.
BUSINESS BENEFITS?

- Makes sophisticated checks affordable to all organisations
- Cut cost of delayed processing (up to £20 per delayed form)
- Avoid losses from forms that can never be processed
- Highlight Potential Fraud
- Speed up collection of bank related data for financial transactions
- Improve customer service
