Vendor Verification

Use Case

Smarter accounts payable automation

Vendor fraud is one of the most costly and difficult-to-detect risks facing finance teams today. Eftsure gives finance teams the power to proactively detect and block fraudulent payments before funds ever leave an account.

Accounts payable automation

Eliminate manual checks without compromising control

Manual verification is time-consuming and error-prone. Eftsure automates critical steps like vendor onboarding, payment file validation and bank detail checks, all while keeping your internal controls intact

Keep your list of suppliers compliant

Built for finance teams

Global cybercrime damage on trajectory to hit $12.2 trillion annually by 2031

Finance teams, specifically accounts payable teams, are key targets for cybercrime. Without the help of software, it’s always going to be an unfair fight.

Cybercriminals only need to succeed once, whereas finance teams must be sure about payment details every time. Eftsure provides peace of mind and confidence throughout the entire payment lifecycle.

Seamless integration

Eftsure works with your existing accounting setup

Once you're live, connect Eftsure to your existing systems, including ERP and treasury platforms, through prebuilt connectors like Kyriba, Coupa, Esker and SAP. Every payment gets an added layer of protection in real time, without the manual verification work sitting on your team's plate.

Fraud & error prevention

See immediate risk indicators with Eftsure’s visual payment alerts

Our traffic light alert system helps finance teams quickly assess payment risk. A green thumbs up confirms a verified vendor. An amber thumb indicates that the payment details require closer review. A red thumbs down flags a clear mismatch in vendor information. With this simple visual system, it's easy to identify potential fraud or errors before funds are released.

FAQ

Eftsure is a leader in fraud detection and payment protection.

Our pioneering fraud-tech solution brings financial controls into the digital age and helps organisations of all sizes mitigate the risk of processing irretrievable payments to scammers.

Our global multi-factor verification platform boasts over 11 million verified businesses. This enables you to verify banking details in real time before processing payments to your suppliers. This helps mitigate the risk of human error and prevents modern cyber fraud tactics such as social engineering, phishing and fake invoicing from impacting you financially.

In a business landscape where instances of digital fraud are rising exponentially, Eftsure  enhances your payments controls and provide you additional peace of mind.

Digital transformation is changing how we do business, but it also brings new challenges, especially with the rise in digital fraud. Organisations face growing threats from offshore criminal syndicates aiming to defraud them through hacking and deception.

The risk is highest with payments because banks don't verify the payee's account name with the UEN or account number. This gap allows criminals to exploit organisations through methods like Business Email Compromise (BEC), Vendor Email Compromise (VEC), hacking ERP systems, and tampering with vendor master files and GIRO files used for online banking.

Accounts payable teams often lack the capacity and training to detect such fraud, and ERP and accounting software can only match new data to existing data, not against an independent source.

Modern cybercrime and fraud use identity theft and social engineering (manipulation) to impersonate trading partners and vendors. Vulnerabilities in vendor or partner organisations become your problem, too, allowing fraudsters to infiltrate their systems and deceive you using legitimate email accounts and documentation.

These impersonations rely on legitimate email accounts and are extremely hard to detect. Furthermore, fraudsters constantly adapt their tactics to circumvent most payment controls and AP measures.

A single factor of verification (be it your own records or a callback control) is insufficient in such an environment. That's why we've developed an approach that's fit for a digitally connected world: multi-factor verification.
