Stop more fraud.

Every verification connects to a network of dealers, and real customers keep moving.

Auto finance fraud comes in many forms. IDV alone isn't enough to stop them all.

Identity fraud

Someone else's identity.

A stolen, borrowed or altered ID. IDV is built to stop it.

Synthetic identity

A real face on a synthetic identity.

Real and invented details on one ID. The face matches, so IDV approves.

First-party fraud

The buyer is real. The deal is not.

Their own ID, with an inflated income or no plan to pay. IDV approves.

IDV alone won't stop the chargebacks.

The deal gets funded. Then the fraud comes back to you.

Illustration: one deal on a timeline. At the desk, the ID Verifier approves Thomas Reed, every check passed. On June 14, the lender funds the deal: $61,480.00. The payments due in July, August and September are missed, and the account goes to fraud review. On October 20, the same lender's chargeback notice: identity fraud, $61,480.00 due.

  1. At the desk

    Basic IDV approves it. The box is checked.

  2. Funded

    The lender funds the deal, and the car leaves the lot.

  3. Months later

    The payments never come. Thomas Reed does not exist.

  4. The chargeback

    Your dealer agreement sends it back. You pay out the loan.

You need IDV, plus the power of a network.

The solution is IDV Plus.

Your lender asks for the IDV. The Plus is for you.
