Real-time fraud detection is only half the battle — acting fast is what protects revenue. We developed a lightweight yet powerful fraud alerting pipeline that sends instant notifications to internal Slack channels whenever suspicious payment activity occurs.

Our solution included:

• Integration with payment gateways’ fraud signals (e.g., Forter, Stripe Radar)

• Dynamic filters and thresholds to catch only high-risk transactions

• Direct Slack alerts with transaction context, user info, and risk scores

• Configurable alert channels per department (finance, support, compliance)

This enabled the team to respond to fraud attempts within minutes instead of hours — improving approval rates and reducing chargeback risk without slowing down genuine customers.
