What do you like best about Kount?

The user interface is easy to navigate, and with the addition of 3rd party data providers you have enhanced validation, and ability to improve your decisions. I'm also excited about product enhancements to leverage new AI decision science! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kount?

Some of the scoring, and terminology seem to be in conflict with each other, which is probably just a function of how the product evolved over time. Hi scores, vs low scores, before vs after for example when setting context related to proximity or time of purchase can be confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kount solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using the application to keep fraudsters at bay, create friction and prevent a free lunch. No solution is perfect, and with any solution there will be values you have to tolerate, business rules and decisions based on what your budget is for loss. The solution can be tuned by the end user to meet those needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Lauren Vanegas of Kount

We appreciate your thoughtful review of Kount! We're delighted to hear that our user interface and AI enhancements are making a positive impact. We value your support and are always here for you. Thank you for your business!

What do you like best about Kount?

The alerts help me catch chargebacks before they get processed. I get the alert, go into Kount and deal with it immediately before it reaches my merchant processor. Plus I have almost 3 days to get it taken care of. Just enough time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Kount?

Honestly, to be fair, the only thing I have seen and it is not really bad, but I have forgotten a couple of alerts because I get the alert email, but sometimes it hasn't reached my dashboard, maybe because I react too fast. So I wait a bit and it arrives maybe a few minutes later. However a couple of times I completely forgot about it and they timed out. They do, however, have an automatic setting to take care of it, I just like to see what the alert is. Nothing major, but just wanted to give a fair review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Kount solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am getting alerts before I get chargebacks. It has lowered our chargeback rate by almost 900 percent. Yes, I typed it correctly. We were at almost 9 percent, and I think we are alot closer to 1 percent if not lower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Lauren Vanegas of Kount

Your feedback made our day Estevan! Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. It's great to know that we've made a significant impact on reducing chargebacks for you. We're grateful for your business and look forward to continuing to assist you. Cheers!
