EVO Payments and ReD Partner on Fraud Prevention

Payment service provider EVO Payments is partnering with fraud prevention company ReD to provide integrated fraud prevention to EVO's e-commerce merchants.

EVO's clients operate in the retail, hospitality, gaming and financial services industries. ReD's technology includes ReD Shield, an online fraud prevention service designed for e-commerce merchants. ReD has also provided fraud prevention services to Deutsche Card Services, which EVO acquired in 2013.

"As a natural outgrowth of our continued international expansion, it is critical for EVO to partner with service providers who are able to deliver leading solutions across EVO's geographic markets and verticals," says James Kelly, CEO of EVO Payments, in a Jan. 23 press release.

ReD also provides fraud screening services to clients of the Danish payments manager Pensio. ReD, formerly known as Retail Decisions, recently expanded its data management capabilities through a partnership with WhitePages. ReD also partnered with FIS to provide EMV migration services.
