Alterya is an AI-powered fraud detection and prevention platform that connects financial institutions — including banks, crypto exchanges, and fiat-to-crypto services — to identify and block authorized push payment (APP) fraud and money mule activity in real time. By enabling secure, privacy-preserving data sharing across institutions, Alterya surfaces fraud patterns that no single organization could detect alone.
Alterya is used by financial institutions of all sizes, including retail banks, cryptocurrency exchanges, neobanks, payment service providers, and fiat-to-crypto platforms. Any organization that processes payments or crypto transactions and needs to reduce fraud losses, protect customers, and meet regulatory requirements can benefit from Alterya.
Alterya detects authorized push payment (APP) fraud, investment scams, romance scams, impersonation fraud, money mule networks, and other payment-related fraud. The platform uses behavioral analytics, cross-institution network signals, and blockchain intelligence to identify both known fraud patterns and novel attack vectors.
Unlike traditional fraud tools that operate in silos, Alterya creates a federated network of financial institutions that share fraud signals in a privacy-preserving way. This network effect means that when a fraudster is detected at one institution, all participating institutions benefit — giving each participant access to threat intelligence they could never generate alone. Combined with Chainalysis's industry-leading blockchain intelligence, Alterya provides uniquely comprehensive fraud coverage across both fiat and crypto payment rails.
