The Challenge

A digital banking app sees increasing APP fraud where users are socially engineered into sending payments. They need a way to give customers a chance to reconsider.

The Solution

The app implements a 5-minute delay on all outbound payments over $500. During this window, the customer receives a confirmation and can cancel if they realize they've been scammed.

Result: 43% reduction in APP fraud losses, customer satisfaction improved due to safety features
