Merchants lose billions each year to fraud and missed consumer sales, often as a result of suboptimal strategies, poor customer purchasing experiences, a lack of data transparency, and inefficiencies in the payments supply chain leading to false declines.

Identifying where inefficiencies exist in today’s payments supply chain is a monumental challenge. Billions of transactions spanning different countries, multiple payment partners and channels, and an ever-evolving fraud landscape compound the problem. How can you best combat fraud while effectively managing this highly complex supply chain without rejecting legitimate customers?

That’s where CMSPI comes in.

How we help you.

Powered by a unique data-lake, the CMSPI Platform,
and specialist expertise, we perform a forensic
transaction level analysis of your approval rates, payments
page, fraud strategy and payment method performance.

Together, we develop data-driven strategies that help
eliminate lost sales, reduce the cost of fraud and get more
loyal customers through the checkout. We use our unique
intelligence tools and unrivaled visibility of the market to
help you amplify your teams’ results.
