How Delays Stop Scams

Authorised fraud thrives on urgency. Scammers impersonate banks, pressure users to act fast, and exploit instant payments. Once the money is sent, it’s often too late.

Why It Matters:

Victims of authorised fraud usually believe the scam is real — until moments after the transfer. Many report that it only took minutes to realise they’d been tricked.

Delays give users that crucial window to reflect, cancel, or call for help. Several banks found that even a 4-hour delay significantly reduced successful scams. Fraudsters moved on when their tactics stopped working.

Delays also give fraud teams more time to intervene — without disrupting legitimate payments. Customers feel safer knowing they have a built-in buffer.

Why It Works

Delayed Actions interrupt the scam before money leaves the account. The delay is only applied when needed — based on transfer size, recipient type, or risk signals. And when it’s not needed, it stays out of the way.

Fraudsters love fast money-out rails. In the U.S., Zelle is a common exit strategy for fraudsters making account-to-account transfers. Once the transfer is sent, it’s gone — no undo button.

Why It Matters

In 2023, Zelle-related fraud alone cost $440M. Scams are simple: fake invoices, urgent requests, convincing lies. In one click, a customer might send $5,000 directly to a scammer. Without limits, banks are unable to pause or stop these risky transfers—they only react after the fact.

Banks using Money Out Limits saw an immediate drop in fraud losses as fraudsters moved on to easier targets. There was no increase in support calls because legitimate customers could verify and continue without hassle. Fraud teams benefited from smarter detection, gaining new signals to act on in real time. As a result, customers felt more protected and trusted their bank even more.

Why It Works

Money Out Limits stop the cash-out step, breaking the scammer’s flow. The system adapts to context by triggering on first-time payees, high amounts, or risky destinations. And best of all, it adds zero friction unless it truly matters.

Time That Reassures

Customers feel safer knowing there's a second chance to stop something suspicious.

Trigger via API
Call our API when a transaction matches your delay rules. We return a delay ID and status. You handle the queueing on your side.

Plug into your core systems
Integrate at the orchestration layer — wherever payment instructions are created, queued, or authorised.
Typically sits between your front end and core payment processor.

No change to payment rails
Funds aren’t rerouted or touched. You delay execution until we return a release signal — or timeout expires.

Bank sets the rules
You decide when a delay is triggered — based on transaction amount, behaviour patterns, or risk signals. Delay durations are fully configurable: 4 hours, 24 hours, or next business day. Use fixed thresholds or adapt dynamically based on context.

Clear experience
You own the UI. We recommend showing pending state and optional cancel actions. We send delay status updates via webhook.

What’s needed from you
• API call at payment initiation
• Ability to hold or queue the transaction
• Optional: connect your fraud logic
• Optional: UI messaging for pending + cancel

Note: We provide full docs, sandbox access, and integration support during onboarding.
