With the growth of electronic commerce and mobile commerce, fraud is going to be a factor for all businesses that have a web presence. Online fraud takes a variety of forms but charge-backs appear to be the most preventable. Using a multi-layer strategy of various prevention and detection methods (fraud scoring model, device profiling, new type of authentication), merchants install a plug-in and do not have to worry about monitoring transactions for fraud.
Based on a few sources, fraud has been staying around 1% of e-commerce revenues.
As a part of my venture into user interface and user experience design (http://www.caseyash.com), I created a few concepts. It would be excellent if I could implement them, however technical individuals are rare in Tennessee.
Below are the concepts:
Pack - A travel planning tool that integrates weather information to stay alert on what to pack.
RQRES - A real estate search that uses a collaborative algorithm to quickly find a home. The application pulls 10 homes; user rates them and then are shown results that are highly relevant.
Pattern - A more difficult game of Simon. Instead of four tiles, there are nine. The game also features ways to manipulate the game board.
This is somewhat late for Screenshot Saturday, however I have been working on Retailius. The goal is to disrupt the retail industry through the point of sale.
The website (in the process of learning front end development) is viewable at www.retailius.com. As of right now, it is a static prototype consisting of Keynote-linked wireframes.
