Introducing Flggd SafeLine: Scam Prevention Built for Financial Institutions

We started Flggd with a single belief: that scam prevention should happen before the money moves, not after the damage is done. Today, we're bringing that mission directly to the institutions best positioned to act on it — banks, building societies, credit unions, and fintechs.


Why Financial Institutions?

When a customer calls their bank in a panic after sending £3,000 to a fraudster pretending to be HMRC, the bank can try to recover the funds — but in most Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud cases, the money is already gone. The average APP fraud loss per victim is now over £2,400.

Under the UK's new mandatory reimbursement rules, banks are increasingly liable for these losses. The incentive to prevent scams before payment authorisation has never been stronger.


What is Flggd SafeLine?

SafeLine is a lightweight scam verification layer that sits in your customer communication flow. Here's what it delivers:

  • Zero Integration. We built SafeLine specifically to require no backend API access and no infrastructure changes. Most partners are live within two hours.

  • Multi-Channel Intake. Customers can submit suspicious messages, calls, or payment requests via SMS short code, a white-labelled web widget, or email. Your fraud team gets the results. The customer gets an instant verdict.

  • Whitelabelled AI Verdicts. Every scam analysis is returned as a plain-English risk verdict under your brand. Customers see your bank's name, not ours.

  • MI Dashboard. A real-time intelligence dashboard showing submission volumes, scam type breakdown, trends over time, and estimated fraud prevented.

  • Billing & Reporting. Clear usage reporting, monthly invoices, and CSV/PDF export for compliance teams.


Early Results

In our pilot with three UK financial institutions, we saw:


  • 67% of submitted transactions flagged as high-risk were subsequently cancelled by the customer

  • Average time from submission to verdict: under 3 seconds

  • Zero backend incidents or integration failures across 14,000+ submissions


If you're a fraud, compliance, or digital product lead at a financial institution, we'd love to show you Flggd SafeLine in action.
