`Decision Manager`

Contact Customer Support to enable the Decision Manager verbose data mode for your merchant account and to obtain detailed information regarding the device fingerprint.

Decision Manager is a hosted fraud management tool that enables you to identify legitimate orders quickly and that reduces the need to manually intervene in your order review process. You can accurately identify and review potentially risky transactions while minimizing the rejection of valid orders. With Secure Acceptance, you can use Decision Manager to screen orders containing travel data. Include the complete route or the individual legs of the trip, or both. If you include both, the value for the complete route is used.

Decision Manager obtains data about the geographical location of a customer by linking the IP address extracted from the customer's browser to the country and the payment card. Add the customer's IP address to the

customer_ip_address

field and include it in the request.

Verbose mode returns detailed information about an order, and it returns the decision of each rule that the order triggered. Rules that are evaluated as true are returned with the appropriate results and field names, but rules that are evaluated as false are not returned.

These are the optional Decision Manager fields:

consumer_id

complete_route

customer_cookies_accepted

customer_gift_wrap

customer_ip_address

departure_time

date_of_birth

device_fingerprint_id

—the device fingerprint ID generated by the platform overrides the merchant-generated device fingerprint ID.
