Stop policy abuse before it becomes margin loss

Detect early signals of promo abuse, multi-accounting, referral manipulation and first-party misuse – then build rules or models in minutes without adding friction for trusted customers.

Trusted by leaders in finance and technology

Policy abuse controls built to protect growth, margin and customer trust

Spot abuse before it scales

Detect weak signals across accounts, devices, referrals, promotions, payments and customer behaviour before abuse becomes a visible loss pattern.

Link behaviour across journeys

Policy abuse is often designed to look legitimate in isolation. Connect activity across customers, accounts, devices and campaigns, and the network behind the behaviour becomes visible.

Adapt policy with evidence

Turn confirmed abuse patterns into rules, models and review playbooks in minutes – with every decision explained and every outcome feeding back into your controls.

intelligent workflows

One operating layer for abuse detection, investigation and policy control

Policy abuse sits between fraud, growth, customer support and operations. Bring the signals, decisions and feedback loops together and your team can protect incentives, offers and customer experience while keeping genuine customers on low-friction paths.

PROMO AND INCENTIVE ABUSE

Protect promotions without limiting genuine customers

Promotions are meant to drive growth. Detect suspicious use of codes, referrals, bonuses and incentives using customer history, device reuse, account links and campaign context.

Detect promo farming, incentive stacking and referral manipulation

Link accounts using shared devices, payment methods, contact details and behavioural patterns

Apply controls at customer, account cluster, campaign or network level

Keep trusted customers on low-friction paths while escalating suspicious activity

MULTI-ACCOUNTING AND LINKED ENTITIES

Find repeat abusers behind new accounts

Abusers often re-enter through new accounts, new credentials or shared infrastructure. Connect entities across devices, sessions, accounts, addresses and payment instruments, and repeat behaviour surfaces earlier.

Link customers, accounts, devices, sessions and payment methods into one view

Surface repeat users, coordinated groups and account clusters

Detect behaviour that looks legitimate in one account but suspicious across a network

Use connected entity views to support review, enforcement and rule design

POLICY CONTROL AND RULE BUILDING

Turn abuse patterns into live controls in minutes

When a new abuse pattern appears, teams need to respond without slowing every customer journey. You can build, test and deploy rules or models quickly, using your own policy context and historical outcomes.

Build rules or models from confirmed policy abuse patterns in minutes

Backtest changes against historical campaigns, accounts, claims and outcomes

Tune treatments by campaign, product, channel, customer segment or risk pattern

Version every change so teams can compare, roll back and explain decisions

OUTCOME-LED OPTIMISATION

Improve policy enforcement using real outcomes

Policy controls should learn from what happens after each decision. Approvals, reviews, restrictions, complaints, losses and confirmed abuse all connect back to the controls that shaped them.

Measure which rules and models reduce abuse without suppressing genuine growth

See where policies are too broad, too permissive or losing precision

Feed review and enforcement outcomes back into future decisions

Maintain a clear audit trail from signal to decision to outcome

Governed Agents

Identify new bonus abuse patterns before they repeat

Fortify agents help teams spot emerging patterns of attack against new customer bonuses, referral offers and promotional incentives – then automatically search for those same patterns across current activity. Teams stay in control of thresholds, evidence, policy rules and deployment.

  • Detect repeated abuse patterns across bonus, referral and promotion journeys

  • Search current customer, account, device and payment activity for matching signals

  • Summarise the evidence behind high-risk customers, account clusters or campaigns

  • Recommend rules or tuning actions so confirmed patterns can be monitored again automatically

  • Prepare evidence for internal review, enforcement decisions and governance packs
