HIGH POINT, N.C., Nov. 5, 2019– Advanced Fraud Solutions (AFS), a leader in deposit fraud detection software, today announced a strategic partnership with SQN Banking Systems (SQN), a leading provider of integrated fraud detection products for the financial industry. The partnership will provide SQN customers with an enhanced omnichannel transit check fraud detection solution, while equipping AFS clients with the industry’s premier solution for on-us fraud prevention.
The partnership integrates AFS’ industry-leading transit check fraud detection module, TrueChecks®, with SQN’s suite of cutting-edge solutions designed to prevent on-us fraud at financial institutions. The joint solution will help clients detect and prevent fraudulent checks in both their transit and on-us channels. To do this, the companies are combining best-of-breed technology from each firm. Using TrueChecks®, the industry’s largest cooperative check fraud prevention database, and SQN’s SENTRY: Fraud Suite, customers will receive real-time responses on counterfeit, NSF, Closed Account, Duplicate, and other fraudulent transit items. This will reduce the potential for check fraud-related losses. SQN’s SENTRY suite of fraud prevention solutions will deliver equally impressive return-on-investment on the other side of the house. The SQN platform stops fraudulent checks drawn on a financial institution’s own accounts.
By integrating the TrueChecks®database with SQN Banking Systems, we’re creating a complete solution to protect both sides of an institution’s check business.
