Fraud protection refers to the tools and processes that prevent unauthorized transactions, fake bookings, and payment scams in an attraction or tour booking system. Because operators sell tickets online, on-site, and through OTAs, fraud protection safeguards both revenue and guest trust by ensuring every transaction is valid.

In an all-in-one booking platform, fraud protection may include:

• Secure payment processing → encryption, PCI compliance, and tokenized transactions across POS and online checkouts.

• Identity verification → confirming guest details, waivers, or digital signatures before entry.

• Ticket validation → scanning QR codes or barcodes to prevent duplicates and fake entries.

• API-level protection → blocking suspicious or bot-driven activity from third-party channels and affiliates.

• Monitoring & alerts → flagging chargebacks, unusual booking patterns, or high-risk transactions.

• Analytics → tracking fraud attempts to adapt security rules and minimize risk.

Fraud protection helps operators reduce financial losses, maintain smooth entry operations, and preserve the integrity of guest experiences.
