Daniel Corby, CEO iFindabusiness (dot) com to speak at Internet World
iFindabusiness.com, a leading UK directory service is speaking at Internet World show, London
Speaking about Internet World show, Daniel Corby CEO and Founder of iFindabusiness (dot) com said “We are delighted to have been asked to speak as a case study on how we have improved payment processing and implemented anti-fraud measures across the business. We moved to a secure processing environment in conjunction with our acquiring bank partner to handle the thousands of monthly payments that we process by UK credit and debit card.
The system that we have developed alerts our payment processing team to suspicious looking transactions and gains real time on-line authorisation.
We required a PCI compliant system that supported our automated rebilling solutions and we have seen an instant drop in decline rates and have reduced our staffing dedicated to processing transactions at the same time. To be asked to speak at Internet World show, London is an honour”
