NEW ACCOUNT CREATION

Technology built for
new account fraud prevention

New accounts can lead to valuable customer relationships — as long as they are created by legitimate customers. Fraudsters and opportunistic customers often open fake accounts that expose your business to unnecessary risks and fraud schemes. That’s why we make sure you let the good customers in and keep the bad ones away.

NEW ACCOUNTS PROTECTED BY KOUNT

How new accounts are opened with confidence

When a new user signs up for an account with you, we help verify the user’s identity. So you only let legitimate, good users into your ecosystem — with the least amount of friction and greatest accuracy possible.

New account creation approval
1.

The user’s email risk and usage trends are evaluated. 

The technology analyses the age of an email, how often it has been used, and what it has been used for to identify any red flags or risks.

2.

The user’s identity is verified. 

The user’s identity attributes — such as name, address, and device ID — are compared to global network data to determine if the user is legitimate.

3.

 A trust score is calculated. 

The data analysis reveals how risky a user’s identity is and the level of trust.

4.

 Policies are consulted.

The technology verifies that the user is following the policies you set around account creation.

5.

A decision is made. 

Within milliseconds, the technology gathers enough evidence to automatically approve or decline the user based on the policies you have in place.
