To start using Kount for online payment fraud screening in X-Payments, complete the following steps:

  1. Sign up for a Merchant account with Kount at http://www.kount.com. You will be provided with some credentials that you will need to configure Kount fraud screening in X-Payments: your Merchant ID and your Site ID. Take note of this information.
  2. In the Kount Agent Web Console (AWC), create your API Key(s).

    API Keys are required to authenticate to Kount. Note that Kount has separate environments for testing and production, and API Keys must be created and used for each of the environments separately. Kount's instructions for creating API Keys can be found here: https://support.kount.com/s/article/Create-an-API-Key.
  3. In the Kount Agent Web Console (AWC), adjust credit card validation rules for your online store.
  4. Log in to X-Payments and locate the payment configuration for which you want to use Kount fraud screening. For the sake of example, we are going to enable KOUNT for the payment configuration "First Data Payeezy Gateway (ex- Global Gateway e4)".

After you provide the rest of the required settings (below) and save the changes, you will be able to use this setting to enable KOUNT for your current payment configuration.
      • Merchant ID: Specify your Merchant ID as was provided to you by Kount.
      • Site ID: Specify your Site ID.

      • Description of products: Common name of the products sold by your store.
      • Mode for RIS update request: Choose one of the available options (X: Update data and re-validate transaction against rules or U: Update transaction data only). Mode X is recommended if rules are based on the AVS information returned from the payment gateway. Note that additional charges may apply for Mode X.
    3. Once you are done adjusting the settings, click Save to save the changes.
      • Public certificate file name: Specify your public certificate file name.

  1. Enable Kount fraud screening for the selected payment configuration: On the 'KOUNT Antifraud screening settings' page for your selected payment configuration, click the Disabled button located near the top of the page close to the title "Payment configuration: <Payment configuration name> KOUNT Antifraud screening", and select the action Enable from the button menu:

    Once the button switches to Enabled, Kount screening for the selected payment configuration will be enabled.


Once Kount antifraud screening has been configured and enabled for a specific payment configuraton, any new payment transactions for this payment configuration will be screened by Kount, and you will be able to view the screening results on the Payment details page:
