minFraud Release Notes

Improvements to minFraud Interactive

We have made a number of improvements to the user interface for minFraud Interactive, the interface used to view minFraud transactions through your account portal.

The functionality of the interface is not changed, but some of the features now appear in a different place on the screen, and the transaction information is now displayed differently.

Learn how to navigate the new interface on our Knowledge Base.

Velocity Checking on User ID

We have enabled velocity tracking on the account/user_id input for all minFraud customers.

If you send a user ID associated with your transactions, minFraud will now factor the velocity of the user's transactions into the risk score.

The account/user_id input allows you to pass a unique identifier for each of your users so that the minFraud service can group transactions by user in order to identify fraud signals attached to specific users.

Learn more about the account/user_id input on our Developer Portal.

New License Key Format

We have updated the format of our license keys. New license keys will be longer, with a six character prefix.

The new license keys can be used in all current versions of our Client APIs and in version 3.1.1 and higher of our GeoIP Update program.

No action is required for minFraud users. Existing license keys will still be valid and will continue to function normally.

New license keys will have the following changes:

• The character set is changing from [a-zA-Z0-9] to [a-zA-Z0-9_].
• The length of the license key will now be 40 characters.
• License keys will have a _mmk suffix.

Please note that the length of license keys may be increased in the future.
