High risk businesses attract sophisticated fraudsters and one thing any fraudster will do is to hide his tracks, in particular his IP address through the use of Proxies. Matching the country for the proxy IP with the country of the bank that issued the card is also used to foil fraud scanning tools such as employed within the Endeavour Gateway. Now, researchers at Endeavour have come up with another technology that can detect the actual IP address behind the proxy. For Endeavour merchants, doing business online is now even safer.
In addition to credit card payments, it is now possible to allow clients to pay for online services and products using only a mobile phones.
Operation is easy; the client chooses to pay via mobile phone and enters his mobile number on the payment page. He then receives an SMS to which he must reply YES or NO. If the reply is YES, the money will be deducted from the mobile phone credit and paid out to the merchant.There is no risk of fraud or chargeback to the merchant.

The Payment Gateway now fully integrates email delivery, enabling the merchant to see a confirmation that emails from gateway have been delivered to a client.
While emails sent by gateway are optional, emails play an important role: there is a clear link between fraud and emails and between disputes and emails. Allowing the merchant to get confirmation of email delivery - Directly from the Payment Gateway Interface allows merchants to offer a better service and detect fraud.
The new email functionality also opens up new paradigms for credit card processing. It now now possible to block a payment if the gateway detects that the email cannot be delivered.
A further option is now to send information via email only if a transaction was successful. For example, a password could be send via email only if the payment went through. Endeavour makes sure that information cannot be seen otherwise.
This functionality is a further addition to the many features already offered for email, such as Multi-lingual support.
