We are proud to work with

Full control over your payment processes

Real-time alerting

Instantaneously scan payment files and receive real-time alerts about any irregularities. No need to worry about delays in your payment runs.

Combat fraud

Payment Screening builds a continuous profile of what is classed as an ‘irregular’ transaction for your organisation. Approved users can update rules to adapt to changing risk factors in your business.

Scan all payment types

Whether domestic or cross-border payments, Payment Screening is compatible with all outgoing payment types. You can even specify rules for different currencies in international payment runs.

Review & suppress payments

Payment Screening is an alerting tool. It won’t suppress payments automatically. You still maintain control of your payments, as suppression is reviewed and managed by your authorised users.

Improve financial resilience with Payment Screening

There’s never a better time to enhance your financial security than before you become a victim of fraud or experience monetary loss through human error.

AccessPay Payment Screening acts as your vigilant financial guardian; an added layer of security that safeguards your payment processes.

Via rule-based screenings, flag unrecognised creditors, erroneous payments or suspicious transactions before they are processed, and save yourself the hassle of avoidable monetary loss.
