Launched in July 2020, CoP is a fraud prevention system led by Pay.UK and operated with Open Banking, which confirms the recipient’s name matches the details held by the bank. This process addresses both payment errors and rising incidents of Authorised Push Payment (‘APP’) fraud, where a consumer or a business gets tricked into approving a payment to a fraudster’s account.
CoP supports payments to UK local accounts and checks the payee details when using Faster Payment and CHAPS systems or when setting up a Standing Order. LHV UK shall implement the CoP in two stages. Currently, other participants can check the names on the Company’s customer’s accounts matches their details. More functionalities will be added in the future, and LHV UK’s customers can check payee details for outbound transactions when making a payment.
