Risk Checking

The Gateway is integrated with Kount 360, the leading solution for digital fraud prevention.

If you have an existing account with Kount 360, or sign up for one, you can request that the Gateway pass your transactions to them for risk checking before they are sent to the Acquirer for authorisation.

Kount 360's patented fraud prevention technology combines device fingerprinting; supervised and unsupervised machine learning; a robust policy and rules engine; business intelligence tools; and a web-based case-management and investigation system.

Their team of experts can help you understand and identify the rules necessary to optimise your protection, as well as provide ongoing support. To get the most out of your investment, you may want to dedicate an individual or a team to monitor your rules and ensure they continue to work as intended.

The risk checking preferences can be configured per Merchant Account within the Merchant Management System (MMS). These preferences can be overridden per transaction by sending new preferences. You must use the Kount 360's management portal to configure your risk parameters and thresholds.

Notice: Existing Kount Command customers need to upgrade to Kount 360 as the current Kount Command integration will no longer be available as of March 31 2026.

Risk checking is an advanced feature and must be enabled on your Merchant Account before it can be used. Please contact support if you wish to have it enabled.
