Challenge

Sean and Chris built one of the largest get-paid-to marketing platforms in the world when at Prodege. There, they witnessed the rise of digital fraud, fake accounts, and bots trying to abuse Prodege’s reward system. To stop this, they paired multiple vendors and in-house tech with acquisitions and an internal fraud team: a complex and expensive toolset for combatting fraud.

As a lean team building another world-class user advertising platform, they needed to stop the increasingly sophisticated fake accounts without breaking the bank or requiring months of engineering work.

Pain Points

  1. Other vendors - like IP quality scoring products - had too many false positives, impacting their ability to onboard valuable users
  2. Past work building Prodege involved huge teams and acquisition costs - two things that the lean SplitDrop team knew they couldn’t afford
  3. Before Verisoul, sophisticated users were able to create multiple accounts to earn rewards while increasing Splitdrop’s chargeback rates
“You guys have an amazing product. Our fraud rates dropped >80% in just the first month."

CEO

Solution

Fake Account Detection data enables accurate scoring

Splitdrop runs Verisoul’s invisible Fake Account Detection product suite continuously while users are on their platform - and gets data from Verisoul before sign-up, sign-in, and withdrawal. Spltidrop uses granular data to take actions, like:

  • Analyzing geolocation data to enable precise geoblocking
  • Detecting proxy IPs and preventing those users from accessing partner offers

FaceMatch removes manual review processes

Splitdrop uses the Verisoul FaceMatch when accounts want to withdraw earnings. By ensuring users are real humans and also unique accounts, Splitdrop completely eradicated a manual review process before each withdrawal - enabling users to get paid faster while saving time and money.

AI Fraud Analyst saves hours per week

The Splitdrop team uses Verisoul’s AI fraud analyst to automatically investigate suspicious accounts in seconds - rather than spending hours manually reviewing users.

“Having used several other fraud prevention tools, I find Verisoul’s answer to have a higher degree of accuracy and fewer false positives on detection metrics than others.”
