Identity fraud

Stop fraudsters from hiding their true identity

Identify who is creating accounts, logging in, and transacting on your platform. Recognize your most trusted users, provide them with a better experience, and protect them from scams.

Detect when scammers are impersonating your users

Stop identity and device obfuscation

Prevent fraudsters from masking their true device and identity. Spot the use of synthetic or stolen IDs, mobile emulators, virtual machines, and GenAI impersonation.

Catch fishy and bot-like behavior

Prevent potential bot attacks and account takeovers by detecting expert mouse movements, repetitive actions, and sudden changes in account settings.

Analyze suspicious relationships

Use our network graph and investigative tools to find duplicate accounts, connections to fraud rings, and users with a known history of fraudulent chargebacks.

Trigger additional verifications

Route users through step up flows that require document verification, selfie-likeness, or enhanced due diligence (EDD) when the risk of identity fraud is high.

Behavioural biometrics is fundamental to fraud prevention. Deploying it throughout the customer journey helps our customers deal with increasingly complex fraud attacks.”

I've worked in Fraud and AML for a long time, but I've never worked with a customer support team that's so accessible and effective. Sardine is like an extension of our team.”
Preston Miller
Manager, Fraud and Chargebacks
My favorite Sardine feature is that I can create complex rulesets to catch new fraud patterns, and then test them against the last 30/60/90 days. If they perform well, I can instantly push them to production. That’s game-changing.”
