Upcoming Features
Phone Risk
Carrier line type override
In May 2026, we are introducing an improvement to phone line type classification for certain carrier-routed numbers.
For affected carriers, the line type will be overridden to Non-fixed VOIP.
This update improves the accuracy of line type signals. As a result, customers may observe a 0.5%–1.3% increase in Non-fixed VOIP classification rates.
Platform
New Payment Screening solution
In May 2026, we are excited to announce the upcoming launch of Payment Screening, a real-time solution designed to prevent sanctioned transactions before funds move. By moving beyond traditional batch processing, Socure enables financial institutions to evaluate every participant in a transaction—from beneficiaries and intermediary banks to crypto wallets—in under 200ms.
Why it matters:
Ensuring compliance shouldn't mean compromising the customer experience. Our Payment Screening solution closes compliance gaps by integrating sanctions checks directly into the payment flow, reducing regulatory risk without introducing latency.
Key Highlights:
- Comprehensive Screening: Use a single API request to evaluate all entities in a transaction (senders, intermediaries, and identifiers like IBANs or BICs).
- Identity-Driven Accuracy: Leverage Socure's Identity Graph to significantly reduce false positives and manual review fatigue.
- Granular Orchestration: Customize watchlist policies based on entity roles, jurisdictions, and specific risk thresholds.
- Unified Operations: Manage both onboarding and payment compliance within a single dashboard and audit trail.

In May 2026, we will introduce the following updates:
