A strategic alliance between payment technology company CPI Card Group and fraud prevention specialist Rippleshot will help the paytech proactively defend itself against card fraud.
Headquartered in Littleton, Colorado, CPI Card Group offers a range of credit, debit, and prepaid solutions, as well as complimentary digital solutions and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) instant issuance. The company’s partnership with Rippleshot will enable its customers to take advantage of the fraud prevention firm’s technology that leverages AI, machine learning automation, and predictive analytics to identify and stop credit and debit card fraud.
“Our partnership with CPI furthers our commitment to collaborating and helping financial institutions better protect their revenue and their account holders,” Rippleshot Co-Founder and CEO Canh Tran said. “Keeping up with evolving fraud trends is complex, labor intensive, and impossible to tackle alone. We’re excited to team up with CPI and their partners to help financial institutions proactively transform fraud prevention with a data-driven fraud management approach.”
Rippleshot’s fraud analytics platform spots fraud patterns and creates intelligence and rules to proactively identify emerging fraud risks and stop fraud incidents before they take place. With the backing of an expansive data consortium of 5,000+ financial institutions, the platform also enables banks and financial institutions to block merchants deemed “high risk” and limit the potential damage from major data breaches.
Rippleshot clients using the platform on a consistent basis have experienced a decrease in fraud activity of up to 35% a year. These clients have also identified 10x more compromised incidents compared to average network alerts. Thanks to Rippleshot’s risk score-based reissuance strategies, the fraud prevention process does not create additional friction for the client; institutions report 5x less disruption to customers’ transactions with Rippleshot’s technology.
“Rippleshot is a technology-forward solutions provider with a human-centric approach to decreasing fraud,” CPI Card Group VP of Business Development and Digital Solutions, Rob Dixon, said. “Through this partnership, our customers will be able to reduce costs associated with fraud loss, chargebacks, and manual monitoring while increasing profits and retaining top-of-wallet status with their cardholders.”
Founded in 1982 as Colorado Plasticard, CPI Card Group today is the largest manufacturer of credit, debit, and prepaid cards. The company went public in 2015, trades on the NASDAQ under the ticker PMTS, and has a market capitalization of $303 million. CPI Card Group began the year with the appointment of its new President and CEO John Lowe.
Headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, and founded in 2012, Rippleshot made its Finovate debut at FinovateSpring 2014. The company returned later that year to demo its fraud prevention technology at FinovateFall in New York.
