Mail Order/ Telephone Order (MOTO) payments are a type of card-not-present transaction. As the name suggests, customers are not physically present at the point of purchase. Instead, they share sensitive card information by mail or phone for processing. But MOTO payments are exempt from authentication regulations, making them risky for both merchants and customers. And the ideal opportunity for fraud.
Fraudulent MOTO transactions in the UK totalled £63.7 million in 2021 alone.
At first glance, MOTO payments sounxd great. They’re cheap, easy to implement, and convenient. And removing the ‘additional step’ of authentication can reduce friction. But is it worth it? In 2021 alone, MOTO fraud totalled £63.7 million* in the UK. And the true cost of fraud is much further reaching.
Not only are you (as a business owner) wholly liable for costly chargebacks, but card processors charge higher per-transaction rates to offset their increased risk. There’s also an element of reputational risk.
With all this stacked against MOTO payments, there has to be a simpler (and safer) way to offer contactless payments. Enter Mollie Payment Requests.
