Mastercard Expands Fraud-Fighting to Stablecoins
Mastercard has unveiled a new tool at Money20/20, combining payment and blockchain intelligence to flag fraud, scams, and sanctions exposure in stablecoin payments before they move on-chain. The product, called Stablecoin Security, is available through a platform-agnostic API and analyzes signals like origin of funds and exposure to restricted parties to generate a risk score before a payment settles. The tool is launched with two initial participants, Borderless.xyz and Keyrails, and addresses the growing need for institutions to gauge risk across the full life of a transaction, which often involves complex, multi-step stablecoin transactions. The tool integrates with existing compliance and fraud workflows.
