Protecting Millions in Revenue: How a Tier 1 Bank Strengthened Fraud Defenses and Elevated the Customer Experience

Three of the top 10 banks in the U.S. replaced legacy, in-branch identity checks with Socure – cutting fraud losses, reducing customer dropoff, and delivering a faster, more seamless branch experience that saves millions annually.

The Challenge

  • Tellers were rescanning documents up to three times per customer, adding more than 20 seconds with each retry as the line continued to grow
  • Legacy solutions were unable to efficiently capture fraud–approving fraudulent users while rejecting good users

The Solution

  • Deployed DocV across 2,200+ branches, automatically detecting the document’s orientation, flipping and rotating images without manual intervention
  • Reduced resubmit rates and end-to-end processing time to under 10 seconds using accurate scanning technology
  • Decreased customer friction and overall document decision time
  • Centralized fraud intelligence across digital, branch, and call center channels, so a fraudster who fails online can’t simply walk into a branch and try again
