KYT (Know Your Transaction)

Know Your Transaction (KYT) complements KYC by monitoring user behavior and financial flows in real-time. While KYC verifies who the user is, KYT verifies what they are doing.

Behavioral Monitoring

PredictaID monitors transactions to detect anomalies such as:

  • Sudden Spikes: A user who normally spends R$50 suddenly spends R$5,000.
  • Velocity: Multiple transactions in a short time window.
  • Location: Transactions from a new or high-risk country.
  • Structuring: Multiple small transactions designed to evade detection.

Rule-Based Engine

KYT is powered by our Rules Engine. You define logic to flag suspicious activity:

"IF Transaction Amount > 2000 AND Account Age < 30 days THEN FLAG as High Risk"

Continuous Risk Scoring

Every transaction updates the user's risk profile. A user might pass KYC (Verified Identity) but later be flagged by KYT (Suspicious Activity), triggering a Step-Up Verification flow (e.g., asking for a new selfie).

Integration

KYT is automatically applied when you submit data via the Transactions API.
