Proven Against the Competition

Chart showing First Data achieving a 67% subscription billing authorization rate over four months, versus 60% from a different provider.

We went head-to-head optimizing subscription billing authorization rates for a shared multinational digital-gaming merchant.

 

We outperformed the other provider with a 7% increase in approval rates.

 

While the competitor’s solution meets industry standards, we discovered major processing flaws in their solution which resulted in massive increases in chargebacks.
