Application Fraud
Application fraud is escalating as fraudsters exploit stolen and synthetic identities to open accounts. Fraud committed at onboarding—when false, stolen or synthetic identities and misrepresented information are used to access financial products—costs institutions billions annually. Traditional systems verify documents in isolation, missing sophisticated fraud rings that operate across multiple applications through coordinated attacks.
ContexQ connects identity data, behavioral signals, device intelligence and external risk sources to assess applications in full context. By mapping relationships across applications—shared phone numbers, addresses, devices, and email patterns—ContexQ identifies fraud rings and synthetic identity networks before accounts are opened.

Higher Approval Confidence
Uncover coordinated fraud operations by mapping connections between seemingly unrelated applications, revealing the full scope of organized fraud attacks. Differentiate genuine applicants from fraudulent ones more accurately through comprehensive relationship analysis.
Reduced Onboarding Friction
Minimize legitimate customer friction by understanding the full context of applications through relationship analysis. Reduce false positives by up to 70% and lower unnecessary manual reviews while maintaining customer experience and security.
