With identity theft continually on the rise, bank account verification is becoming a critical asset for businesses.
Bank account verification authenticates and validates bank accounts, providing a snapshot of an account to better determine its status and structure while also detecting possible fraudulent activity.
At ValidiFI, we pride ourselves on providing our clients with financial data and technology services that transform risk into confidence. Below, we explain the critical importance of employing bank account validation.
Bank Account Verification Basics
Bank data speaks volumes about individuals and companies expanding beyond the validity of an account. Rather, bank account verification solutions are able to delve into banking and payment data to determine the validity of a consumer. Without account verification, businesses would have a challenging time determining instantly whether the consumer is a real person and has authorized access to the bank account they have submitted.
Key Benefits of Bank Account Verification
While there are many options available for account verification, none offer a service suite quite like ValidiFI. ValidiFI’s Account Validation determines the level of risk by looking at a consumer’s bank AND payment data, including account information, financial history, financial behaviors, and payments. We offer a variety of tiers depending on your business goals, industry, and levels of risk and fraud.
The benefits of our services include:
-
Create New Risk Segments
Businesses utilizing digital transactions need to quickly and efficiently identify a consumer’s identity to ensure the validity of their account. Creating new segments with ValidiFI financial technology services allows institutions to separate accounts into risk tiers rapidly and easily.
-

-
Zero Friction to Consumers
Also known as non-credentialed, non-consented, or non-permissioned data, our services use an Application Programming Interface-only (API) to make it easier to integrate and implement critical data. In addition, our proprietary technology allows businesses to quickly assess the ownership of the account, remove the manual process, approve customers 24/7, and reduce fraud. Improving account verification allows businesses and financial institutions to attract and keep legitimate clients.
-
Reduce Overdrafts and Return Fees
No business wants to have to deal with overdrafts or return fees on falsely validated accounts.
