Forter

Forter is a fraud prevention and digital identity platform for online commerce. Its Decision API returns real-time trust-or-not decisions for orders, payments, account signups, and logins, drawing on a global identity graph and machine learning trained across a large network of merchants. Beyond fraud management, Forter covers chargeback recovery, abuse prevention, payment optimization, 3DS orchestration, and identity protection. Access is enterprise / contact-sales - API credentials (a per-account site ID and API key) are provisioned by Forter during onboarding, and requests are sent to a dedicated per-tenant host.

Forter publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Accounts API, Data Privacy API, Disputes API, and 1 more. Tagged areas include Fraud Detection, Fraud Prevention, Identity, Trust, and Payments.

Forter’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 8 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/forter: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
