Wednesday, Visa Inc V announced the expansion of its value-added services by introducing three new AI-powered solutions within the Visa Protect suite aimed at enhancing fraud prevention for account-to-account and card-not-present (CNP) payments.
This suite is part of Visa’s extensive range of nearly 200 products across five key categories: Acceptance, Advisory, Issuing, Open Banking, and Risk and Identity.
Visa’s commitment to combating fraud and securing transactions is backed by a $10 billion investment in technology and innovation over the past five years.

The new additions to the Visa Protect suite include Visa Deep Authorization (VDA), designed to enhance risk scoring for CNP payments through advanced deep learning models; an expansion of Visa Advanced Authorization (VAA) and Visa Risk Manager (VRM) to include non-Visa card payments, making these AI-powered solutions accessible for a broader range of transactions; and a real-time protection service for immediate payments like P2P digital wallets and account-to-account transfers, utilizing AI to assess risk and prevent fraud instantaneously.
