The AI agents in depth — in order of execution
Intake Agent
Collects, validates, and organizes all merchant application materials at first touch. Flags missing documents, incorrect formats, and incomplete data fields before any reviewer sees the file.
KYB / Merchant Onboarding
Verifies legitimacy, ownership, and legal existence of the merchant
Runs pre-qualification and full KYB verification — applying a consistent standard across all submissions.
Key checks include
Underwriting Agent
Assesses financial risk, business model, and fraud/chargeback potential for payment processing approval
Scores every merchant file against bank-defined criteria — producing a structured approve/escalate/decline decision with full rationale and audit trail.
Key checks include
Concurrency & Closing
Auto-packages underwritten merchant files into the correct sponsor bank format. Each bank has different field requirements, document standards, and submission structure — Credio handles the translation layer automatically, eliminating manual reformatting and bank-level rejections.
Smart Routing Agent
Recommends the right sponsor bank or Super ISO for each merchant based on risk profile, MCC, volume, and compliance requirements — maximizing approval odds before submission.
Post-Onboarding Monitoring
Continuous chargeback triage, order fraud review, RFI evidence prep, policy circumvention detection, post-refund investigations, and portfolio drift monitoring — at scale, with full audit trails.
ISO Drift & Partner Visibility
Tracks submission quality by ISO partner — surfacing which partners consistently submit clean files and which show patterns of omissions, weak diligence, or exception-heavy behavior. Enables early intervention before portfolio risk compounds.
