Assess transaction risk with Risk Assessment Scoring
Identify and assess risk for transactions that are not indemnified by Bolt Fraud Protection.
Risk Assessment Scoring provides fraud signals at the transaction level. Use it with Fraud Protection for transparency, or alone if you do not need chargeback indemnification.
Who this is for
Merchants who want per-transaction risk scores and factor breakdowns in the dashboard, with or without full Fraud Protection.
How it works
Each merchant-liable card transaction includes a risk score and breakdown of influencing factors from the same models that power Fraud Protection. Bolt identifies the factors with the highest impact on each score.
Bolt only provides risk scoring for card transactions. Alternative payment method transactions are not assessed.
Benefits
Without Fraud Protection:
- Understand what makes a transaction risky
- Gain insight into chargeback patterns
- Reduce fraud losses through better manual reviews
With Fraud Protection:
- See how Bolt's team evaluates transaction risk
- Understand indemnification decisions per transaction
