October 19, 2023

SALT LAKE CITY, October 19, 2023 – Galileo Financial Technologies, LLC, a leading financial technology company independently owned and operated by SoFi Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFI), is now offering the Galileo Payment Risk Platform to the entire financial services ecosystem. This holistic fraud engine delivers real-time payment risk mitigation controls that allow any fintech or financial brand to proactively reduce fraud losses and minimize payment risks.

The Galileo Payment Risk Platform as a standalone solution allows companies not currently in the Galileo processing ecosystem to integrate Galileo’s fraud APIs to: 

  • Implement multi-channel, adjustable risk assessments and controls, based on a broad variety of levers available during real-time transactional decision-making

  • Offer custom tailored risk controls based on client risk appetite

  • Utilize advanced data elements embedded into enhanced rules and machine learning-based models, taking into account entities such as merchants, channels, geo-locations, etc.

  • Leverage network risk checks and assessments for fraud decisioning

With the U.S. real-time payments market projected to grow at a compound annual rate of 10.12% from 2022 to 2027, organizations need sophisticated AI and machine learning-based tools that provide real-time insights for companies to act on more than ever.

“In the fight against fraud, banks, fintechs and program managers are constantly solving for two key challenges: minimizing fraud losses and maintaining the ability to tune anti-fraud strategies to respond to new threats and elevate the customer experience,” said David Feuer, Chief Product Officer at Galileo.

“The Galileo Payment Risk Platform is designed to help financial brands do both by expanding and enhancing the availability of real-time fraud data and delivering technology tools that can allow in-house fraud teams to get ahead of emerging fraud patterns and reduce fraud losses.”
