Radar for PlatformsPrivate preview

Stripe has developed risk tooling for Connect platforms to help you more effectively prevent, detect, and mitigate both buyer risk and financially risky connected accounts (either fraud or credit risk).

Radar for Platforms helps your platform manage risk end-to-end:

• Identify potential financial risk using machine learning generated risk scores and customized rules engines
• Investigate connected accounts using risk metrics and indicators
• Gather additional information using document verification or a selfie confirmation
• Take action on transactions and connected accounts (including setting reserves).

Identify potential financial risk from your connected accounts

Stripe provides a finanical risk score for each connected account based on the risk-related signals that we collect.

Investigate a connected account

In your Dashboard, you can view the following information in the connected account details page:

• The risk score of the connected account
• Potential risk indicators, which provide you with suggestions for potential areas to investigate further
• Risk-related metrics, such as declines, disputes, and refunds, specific to that connected account

Gather additional information

To gather more information on the connected account, you can ask to verify a government-issued ID document and, optionally, a selfie. When you do so, you also set an enforcement that automatically occurs if the connected account doesn’t successfully complete the verification. This enforcement can either be to pause payouts only, or to pause both payouts and payments. This enforcement can occur either after a certain period of time or after a certain total lifetime volume.

Take action

You can pause payments, pause payouts, set reserves or reject a connected account using the API or the Dashboard.
