Rapyd Protect uses ML on transaction signals like IP, device, amount—plus custom rules for blocks/reviews—to flag fraud real-time without hurting good checkouts.

Dashboard > Protect > Add Rule (Allow/Block/Review). Set conditions (amount >2500 EUR, etc.), actions. Supports AND/OR logic.

Does Rapyd Protect stop all payment fraud?

No tool does—handles common patterns via retrained ML, but custom rules needed for niche risks. Expect false positives; tune aggressively.
