Overview

The Xsolla Anti-Fraud System (AFS) is designed specifically for the gaming industry and offers a comprehensive range of services to detect and prevent fraud, including chargeback handling and transaction risk management. AFS blocks suspicious activity and protects your revenue by integrating with your game’s economy and analyzing user behavior through in-game protocols.

AFS uses custom in-game parameters and game-specific data points to create a focused defense against fraud. For example, 94% of fraudulent transactions occur within 48 hours of account creation. Xsolla analyzes data such as registration dates and hours played to identify newly created accounts with minimal playtime — a common indicator of fraudulent activity. By leveraging additional parameters, AFS reduces credit card fraud rates while maintaining a smooth experience for legitimate users.

Key features:

• Cross-game analytics: AFS reviews fraud data across all your games, preventing scammers from targeting multiple projects and reducing risk of serial fraud.
• Customizable fraud detection: AFS team tailors fraud detection rules based on your game data to maximize performance.
• Streamlined manual review: AFS enhances the manual review process, blocking fraud with 99% accuracy and minimizing game delays for legitimate users.
• Dispute assistance: AFS collects evidence based on dispute type and set rules, ensuring refunds are made only for valid claims.
• Machine learning: advanced machine learning algorithms reduce false positives, identify complex fraud patterns, and adapt detection methods over time for smarter fraud prevention.
