E-commerce is thriving—but so is online fraud. Many merchants respond by adding a fraud prevention tool at checkout, hoping to block bad actors before they can cause damage.
But here’s the problem: traditional fraud tools often block good customers, too, hurting your conversion rate and revenue in the process.
Traditional Fraud Tools: A Conversion Killer in Disguise
Most fraud prevention systems are designed with a single goal: stop fraud at all costs. Though that sounds responsible, it often has an unintended side effect of real customers getting caught in the crossfire.
Common reasons for false positives include:
- Mismatched billing and shipping addresses
- Use of international or prepaid cards
- Slight discrepancies in user behaviour or IP location
These aren’t red flags on their own, they’re normal buying behaviour in global e-commerce. When fraud tools overcorrect, you lose legitimate customers at the worst moment: checkout.
The Real Cost of False Declines
Across the e-commerce industry, authorisation rates average between 85% and 95%. That means up to 1 in 7 valid transactions can fail, not because of fraud, but because fraud tools are too aggressive.
