Crew Clothing maximize revenue and reduce chargebacks via MNP Retail & ACI ReD Shield

Niche casual retailer, Crew Clothing has adopted defensive measures to help reduce retail fraud across their growing omni-channel operation. Using MNP’s appointed third party service provider ACI Fraud Shield, Crew Clothing can now screen web orders with both generic apparel and custom fraud rules. The fraud screening service applies a unique score to each order, which the MNP order management reviews and applies logic to determine if the order remains held or is sent through to fulfillment. Now with 78 stores and a growing omni-channel presence, Crew Clothing is planning significant growth and have a strong foundation platform upon which to grow sales confidently and one that delivers the customer experience. After only three months, the deny rate on transactions from rigid fraud rules had been reduced down to 12%. With further analysis and rules adaptation, this level has been further reduced to just 3% with no associated increase in fraud levels. Revenue has been maximized as a result.
