Kount, an Equifax company vs. NameScan

By now, the vast majority of payment gateways have implemented fraud prevention software like Kount. Contracting the solution directly and doing it faster and cheaper than other solutions on the market makes sense if you have several stores and/or sales.

In our specific case, NameScan is an interesting piece of software for administratively verifying the identity of those who have to enroll in courses or discuss a Thesis. The fact that NameScan can be integrated with other software (anti-plagiarism, for example, Turnitin) guarantees greater use efficiency. In this case, the integrated verification of identity and possible plagiarism helps us significantly limit fraud.

• The software still generates confusion, especially in the case of Asian names, often repetitive or similar to each other. In this case, the information it returns is not very accurate.
• The numerous integrative databases that can be purchased are really very expensive.
• NameScan is graphically unintuitive.

Kount is cheaper and less complex to integrate than other options. However, that ease comes with reduced accuracy. The other option we have chosen was much more complex to integrate, but also has way more accuracy in determining actual fraudulent transactions. This can be verified by a reduced number of calls to customer care.
