Advanced Fraud Solutions Reports Adoption of its ACH Fraud Mitigation Tool, Reveals Significant Potential Fraud Losses Prevented


HIGH POINT, N.C., Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanced Fraud Solutions (AFS), a leader in payments fraud detection software, today announced the successful adoption of its ACH fraud prevention tool, TrueACH with Account Validation, after a year in the market. TrueACH with Account Validation helps banks and credit unions secure their ACH transactions by enabling them to confirm account status and authorized user(s).

Since launching a year ago, in August 2021, AFS has completed nearly 20 bank and credit union installations of TrueACH with Account Validation. In the first half of 2022, these installations have stopped or flagged over $21MM in potentially fraudulent ACH transactions, with an average transaction size of $2,330 stopped or flagged for further investigation.

"We're seeing a definite shift towards digital payments by financial institutions, consumers as well as fraud operators," said Lawrence Reaves, CEO at AFS "Our goal in launching TrueACH with Account Validation was primarily to help financial institutions comply with Nacha standards and to mitigate payments risk. What we didn't expect was to see the fairly immediate dollar impact of fraud prevention measures that would have otherwise gone unnoticed. Thankfully, TrueACH with Account Validation is now being used by financial institutions every day to better understand payments risk, with great results."



Today's news follows the ACH Network's Q2 2022 results in which it said to have moved 7.5BB in total payments, with Same Day ACH transaction value up 94.4% (from $250BB in 2021 to $486BB in 2022) and volume up 24.4% (from 148.7M in 2021 to 185M in 2022). What is more, Q2 2022 also represents the first quarter in which the Same Day ACH dollar limit moved to $1M per transaction.

AFS is a Nacha Preferred Partner for Account Validation – a select group of innovators that Nacha recognizes for offering products and services that align with Nacha's core strategies to advance the ACH Network in the Account Validation category.
