Fast and secure crypto payments for e-commerce merchants

RMIT’s joint Cooperative Research Centre Project (CRC-P) with Novatti on Fraud Detection.

The global Cryptocurrency (Crypto) market is an emerging means of exchange, valued at $3.12 trillion, with a 21% increment in daily transactions (2020-21). Despite the size and growth, diverse security and operational impediments pertinent to the currencies’ liquidity and safety limit its usability.

In partnership with Novatti Group, thankQ Solutions Pty Ltd and Swyftx, RMIT University through this project will develop a digital platform consisting of novel anti-fraud and anti-money laundering techniques, to align Crypto transactions with traditional payment options such as credit cards.
