vs fraud suites
Account protection without the suite tax
Full fraud suites shine when chargebacks, card testing, and checkout are in scope. If your pain is fake signups and risky logins, a focused account-protection API gets you to a defendable decision faster — with transparent pricing.

| AbuseGraph | Typical fraud prevention suites | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Account / auth risk | Payments + account + more |
| Time to first API | Minutes on Free | Often sales-led |
| Pricing | Public Free / $99 / $199 | Custom / annual contracts |
| Chargebacks | Out of scope | Core strength |
| Auth decision quality | Primary focus | Module — quality varies |
When specialists still win
Payment / chargeback depth
Card testing, ATO tied to payments, and chargeback workflows need a payment-fraud stack. We do not replace that.
One vendor for everything
If procurement demands a single suite across checkout and auth, evaluate suites — and still keep auth decisions explainable.
FAQ
Can AbuseGraph replace our fraud suite?
Not for payments. For signup/login risk, many teams run AbuseGraph alongside a payment suite — or replace a thin auth module with a focused check API.
Is this only for startups?
No. Scale is built for higher volume with lower overages. The point is focused scope and public metering — not company size.
