Dock introduced FICO CCS for Fraud in 2020 to combine the speed of fraud prevention with prompt and efficient customer communication.
FICO® Falcon® Fraud Manager which protects more than 2.6 billion cards worldwide flags the transactions as fraudulent and the customer can inform their lender using FICO® CCS when they didn’t perform the transaction.
Digio Enhances Fraud Communication
One of Dock’s customers, a digital bank called Digio, has seen a big improvement in engagement rates since introducing FICO CCS. Previously, when the bank called customers the average response rate was 25 percent. However, with the implementation of new SMS and email techniques through CCS, the engagement rate has risen to 67 percent, surpassing the current market average of 40 percent.
In addition to these metrics, the volume of transactions processed is much higher than the old manual approach, where it would be necessary to have an average of 60 operators handling alerts daily. By using FICO CCS, it’s possible to automate most of the work which was previously done manually and save significant operational costs.
The use of real-time omnichannel transaction confirmation has also delivered a fraud detection rate of 60 percent for Digio, twice as high as when they first started leveraging FICO CCS.
“The implementation of FICO CCS has significantly boosted the number of fraud cases that Dock is able to prevent for its customers, in conjunction with Falcon Fraud Manager,” said Pablo Morales, FICO’s managing director of global partner and alliances in

For its achievements, Dock won a 2023 FICO® Decisions Award for Fraud Management.
“The judging panel was impressed by the solution delivered by Dock, which was a very innovative business model by a partner that delivered significant benefits,” said Douglas Blakey, editor, Retail Banker International and one of the FICO Decisions Awards judges. “Fraud is a pervasive threat in the financial industry, but with Dock's solution, lenders can rest assured that they're taking proactive steps to mitigate risk.”
