tell.money’s Cutting Edge Solution Eases Client Journeys Towards Compliance with CoP Specific Directive 17
London, UK - In a world where Authorised Push Payment (APP) scams and misdirected payments are on the rise, tell.money is proud to offer its state-of-the-art solution that enables Payment Service Providers to comply with the Payments System Regulator’s, Specific Direction 17 on expanding the Confirmation of Payee (CoP) system.
CoP has been an invaluable tool for consumers in reducing the risk of fraudulent activities. The figures speak for themselves: according to a report from UK Finance, the rise in fraud has reached catastrophic levels, with losses increasing by a staggering 30%. In a separate report from Finextra, it was found that 69% of businesses have experienced significantly or somewhat higher losses due to fraud in 2023 alone.
Now, under Specific Direction 17, CoP will be a game-changer for businesses. The PSR has directed 400 payment service providers in the UK to implement the CoP name-checking service for their customers. This directive aims to significantly reduce Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud and the occurrence of misdirected payments. With the deadline for PSPs to become compliant with CoP set for October 31, tell.money is ideally positioned to support firms in meeting this deadline while helping them to reduce the risk of fraud and misdirected payments
