Emailage and Alpha Payments Cloud Team Up to Offer Banks and Merchants a More Secure and Powerful Payments Platform

Phoenix, AZ, USA, and Dublin, Ireland – April 9, 2015 – Emailage , the leading global fraud prevention company that leverages an email address to assess transactional risk, and Alpha Payments Cloud , a platform that consolidates payment types and solution providers globally, have announced a partnership that integrates Emailage’s technology into Alpha Payment Cloud’s AlphaHub product. As a result of this partnership, international banks and merchants connected through the AlphaHub can benefit from Emailage’s ability to detect risky transactions by analyzing the email address provided. By monitoring fraud trends across multiple use cases and the entire landscape of industries and regions, Emailage uses multiple technologies including machine learning to proactively detect which emails are associated with certain patterns, even if the email address has never been identified as fraudulent before. Using this advanced patent pending technology, Emailage saved customers $150 million in confirmed fraud in 2014 alone. Additionally, Emailage is able to identify trustworthy emails based on positive historical data, allowing Alpha Payment Cloud’s customers to expedite those orders. Emailage provides a faster approval rate for 60 percent of customers’ transactions, which increases satisfaction and provides a frictionless buying experience.  

The partnership offers Alpha Payment Cloud customers a best of breed solution, combining a hub of world-class transaction and commerce providers with Emailage’s intelligent risk assessment. Existing Alpha Payment Cloud customers will have instant access to Emailage’s solution by flipping on the functionality in the AlphaHub product. New customers onboarding can set up payment processors, shopping carts, other transactional products, and Emailage in one integration saving time, money and resources.  

“We are excited about our partnership with Alpha Payments Cloud. With Emailage folded into AlphaHub’s omnichannel solution, merchants and financial institutions can immediately have access to our technology,”   said Rei Carvalho, CEO of Emailage. “We are the ones who introduced the email dimension to the fraud mitigation industry and already have a great portfolio of clients globally and a vast consortium of critical data. Adding Alpha Payment Cloud customers further strengthens our solution.”
