Methods and systems for providing a decision making platform
A computer-implemented method of providing enriched transaction data for a transaction requiring an authorization is provided, the transaction performed using a computer system having a processor and a memory device. The method includes storing transaction data received from an input channel, the transaction data including a transaction identifier. An execution plan is retrieved based at least in part on the transaction identifier. The transaction data is processed across an enrichment processor based on the execution plan to generate at least one fraud score for the transaction. The transaction data is enriched to include at least one of the fraud score and an enriched data object. The enriched data is transmitted to an authorizing party for authorization.
