Download

Summary

One of the world’s most valuable companies as of July 2025, has redefined real-time payment screening at scale through its partnership with Napier AI. In support of the multi-trillion-dollar global footprint, Napier AI enabled the company to seamlessly screen every consumer transaction across its e-commerce platforms with accuracy – without interrupting customer experience or overloading compliance teams. The result is a fully automated, API-first compliance solution that matches the companies need for performance, precision, and growth.

Challenge

The Fortune 5 company was expanding internationally via e-commerce, which created trade finance regulatory obligations to screen payments against global sanctions lists. The company needed to implement a solution quickly, to protect the business from multi-million-dollar fines and to capitalise on the market opportunity without disrupting the e-commerce checkout process.

The company required:

• A high-throughput screening solution for millions of customer payments.

• The flexibility to block transactions to and from specific countries, regions, and individuals from purchasing high price items.

• Ultra-accurate risk decisions aligned to the company’s risk appetite.

• A headless, API-first design to slot directly into existing systems.

• Elimination of manual alert review through low false positive rates.

• Future-proof scalability to support exponential transaction growth.

Traditional transaction screening tools failed to deliver the accuracy and throughput the company demanded, especially when applied to real-time, global payments. The company needed a NextGen solution that could support its brand promise of speed and trust.

Solution

The company selected Napier AI Transaction Screening, deploying it via a headless API to fit its global e-commerce infrastructure with zero business disruption. Implementation was completed and fully performant in one week, ensuring readiness ahead of a major product launch, critical timing for a business forecasting record full-year revenue of $100+ billion USD in FY25.

Key benefits included:

• API-first integration into company’s e-commerce stack, with no need for case management or UI.

• Ultra-accurate name matching tuned to company’s specific risk tolerance, minimizing false positives.

• High-volume transaction screening with fully automated red-light/green-light decisions.

• Zero analyst review required, significantly reducing overhead and keeping compliance cost low.

• Scalability to meet global customer base.

Napier AI worked closely with the customer to ensurethat every payment – regardless of channel, region, or method – was screened in milliseconds, ensuring compliance at the speed of commerce.
