Research and Markets: Future-Proofing Card Authorization - Analyse the Prevalence of False-Positive Declines in the U.S.

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6rhk3h/futureproofing) has announced the addition of Javelin Strategy & Research's new report "Future-Proofing Card Authorization" to their offering.

This report will analyze the prevalence of false-positive declines in the U.S., discuss the impact of such declines, and explore solutions - particularly EMV and mobile - that can help improve authorization analytics.

Fraud remains a serious danger in the U.S., but transactions wrongly declined due to suspected fraud - known as a false-positive - may represent just as big a threat. The report estimates that 15% of all cardholders have experienced a false decline in the past year, representing an annual decline amount of almost $118 billion. Unfortunately for issuers, a false-positive decline can seriously erode customer loyalty and pushes many consumers to abandon the issuer or merchant connected with the erroneous decline. Luckily, new technology such as EMV and mobile can help improve card authorization practices and reduce false-positive rates. This report will analyze the prevalence of false-positive declines in the U.S., discuss the impact of such declines, and explore solutions - particularly EMV and mobile - that can help improve authorization analytics.
