BioCatch's Antifraud Measurement Gains Top Honor for Scam Mitigation
In a significant stride towards enhancing online banking security, BioCatch Trust has been protecting over 80% of Australia's online banking population since its launch in November 2024. The network, a joint venture between BioCatch and the Biometric Institute, has also expanded to Argentina, further bolstering its global impact.
The network has processed an impressive $320 billion ($500 billion AUD) in total payments in its first 10 months of operation. This impressive figure is a testament to its efficiency and reliability.
One of the key advantages of BioCatch Trust is its ability to reliably identify various types of scams, such as romance, investment, business email compromise, purchase scams, and more, which member banks previously struggled to detect. This capability has been recognised by a panel of fraud and AML industry experts, who selected BioCatch Trust for its world-class scam-detection rate.
Tim Dalgleish, SVP of Emerging Solutions & Network at BioCatch, highlighted the hard work and collaboration across the board that went into bringing BioCatch Trust to life. He stated, "BioCatch Trust represents a meaningful advancement in how financial institutions can collaborate to prevent fraud."
The solution's ability to provide visibility into institutional blind spots exploited by scammers and its capacity to create a collaborative framework for real-time, cross-institutional intelligence sharing while maintaining privacy protections, has been a game-changer in the industry.
In recognition of its groundbreaking work, BioCatch Trust has won the 2025 Fraud Impact Award for Best Scam and APP Fraud Prevention Solution. Datos Insights strategic advisors selected BioCatch Trust for the award, citing its ability to solve multiple industry challenges simultaneously.
BioCatch Trust is not just a standalone solution, but a network that strengthens the financial ecosystem. With the participation of founding members such as Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ), Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA), National Australia Bank (NAB), Suncorp Bank (Norfina Limited), and Westpac in Australia, and Banco Galicia, Naranja X, and Santander in Argentina, the network continues to grow and evolve, providing a robust defence against online banking fraud.
Every day, BioCatch Trust processes millions of transactions, delivering insights in less than 500 milliseconds, ensuring quick and efficient protection for its users. The network's expansion and continued success underscore its importance in the fight against online banking fraud and its role in strengthening the financial ecosystem.
