GetAnswers

This section describes one of the fraud screening methods used in the development of fraud screening plugins that allow CloudBlue Commerce to integrate with third-party fraud screening systems. For more information, refer to Overview and How to Develop Fraud Screening Plugins.

Method naming convention

Mandatory / optional
