AUTHORIZATION OPTIMIZATION WITH KOUNT

How authorization optimization works

We provide the data. You build that data into your authorization process. Together, more orders are approved.

How authorization optimization works
1.

An authorization request is sent to the issuing bank.

When the authorization request is received, the issuing bank consults Kount’s database — which provides additional details about the transaction.

2.

A decision is made.

The issuing bank makes a final decision to approve or decline the payment. With greater insights, the bank can approve more transactions with less risk. 

3.

Approval rates increase.

The more transaction details issuing banks have, the more informed their decisions are. In turn, more orders get approved and fewer false positives happen.

WHY AUTHORIZATION OPTIMIZATION MATTERS

Benefits you can’t afford to miss

Does your current authorization process only check for the basics like an expired card and the account balance? See what happens if you just meet the bare minimum for payment processing.

WITHOUT optimization

  • Decline legitimate customers
  • Risk fraudulent transactions
  • Frustrate good customers
  • Needlessly sacrifice revenue

WITH optimization

  • Trust data-driven decisions
  • Increase authorization rates
  • Safely decrease chargeback rates
  • Improve customer satisfaction
  • Boost your bottom line
