The Email Insights service in Kount 360 has been updated to utilize a new, more comprehensive dataset and is now called the Email Verification service. This update provides more accurate email data by including all native Payments Fraud orders, which were not part of the legacy Email Insights service.
Note
Policy updates can be made after upcoming holidays (Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Christmas) to avoid interrupting your current policy sets. If you wait to update your policy sets to the new conditions, use the Email Insights (DEPRECATED) widget in Order Details/Case Details to ensure you are seeing the correct data.
To implement this new service, you must:
-
Remove deprecated policy conditions in your policy sets.
-
Replace deprecated policy conditions (Billing Email Trustworthiness and Billing Email/Name Association [DEPRECATED]) with the new policy conditions (Billing Email Risk Score and Billing Email/Name Association).
Note
The new Billing Email/Name Association condition now includes an is partial value, enhancing its matching capability.
-
Add the new Email Insights widget to your Order Details/Case Details saved layouts.
Caution
There are two Email Insights widgets. The widget flagged as Email Insights (DEPRECATED) is the previous version of Email Insights and should not be used. If you are still using this widget, you must update your policy conditions with the latest Email Verification service conditions and add the Email Insights widget to your Order Details/Case Details page. Using nonequivalent conditions for either service will produce unexpected results.
For more information about the Email Verification service and the deprecated and updated conditions, go to Email Verification Service in Kount 360.

We have updated Case Queue to improve the user experience and speed-up batch actions and queue management. Previously, the checkbox and Assignee columns were coupled, preventing the user from configuring the Assignee column.
-
The clickable area on the selection checkboxes has been expanded.
-
The Assignee column is now configurable. You can resize, hide, or move the column as necessary.
Effective: 2025-11-17
We have added the ability to unassign cases from an agent.
Users can unassign a case that was assigned to them or another agent in Case Queue. The unassigned case is returned to the general queue and can be reassigned.
To unassign a case:
-
Log in to Kount 360.
-
Select the checkbox for the case you want to unassign.
-
Select Assign Agent.
-
Scroll or search for Unassigned.
-
Select Unassigned.
The case status updates to Unassigned.

In Case Management > Queue Manager > Ekata Service, we added the option to enable Ekata to inform automated or manual review decisions. You can set up conditions to run before calling Ekata service to minimize how often the service is called.
Caution
Ekata is a billable service. If no conditions are configured when Ekata is enabled, the Ekata service is called for all orders that are held for manual review.
Ekata conditions used in Policy Management and Queue Manager do not run if Ekata is disabled. You do not need to remove these conditions. When Ekata is enabled, the conditions run.
Note
If the Ekata call was already made in Policy Management, the system bypasses Queue Manager Ekata calls to avoid double charging the organization.
Refer to Ekata Service in Kount 360, for more information about the Ekata Service in Kount 360.

We added the ability to change your base currency in Payments Fraud to assist financial analysis by automatically converting all transactions to a single, user-defined currency. Base currency is visible across all Payments Fraud reports. This update eliminates manual conversions from one currency to another and reduces overall manual effort and conversion errors.
Note
The exchange rate is updated automatically every 24 hours.
Other changes with this update:
-
Conditions
The Order Amount condition is still available to use for the total order amount used by the customer (input currency), but we have added a new condition, Order Amount Base Currency, that must be used to see the total order amount in your base currency.
-
Event Analysis
We added a new column, Base Currency Amount, to the Event Analysis table. This column shows you the order amount in your configured base currency. The Amount column is still available and displays the order amount in the original currency (input currency) used by the customer.
-
Order Details
In order Details, the Payment and Shopping Cart widgets now display data in your base currency. If you want to see the input currency, you can add two new widgets (Payment Input Currency and Shopping Cart Input Currency) in Settings > Saved Layouts.
Base currency is set during the creation of your organization, but you can request an update if your business needs have changed. Contact support@kount.com to learn more about changing your base currency.
Effective: 2025-11-05
We have added the Auto Decision action to Case Management > Queue Manager > Triggers. With Auto Decision, you can create conditions to evaluate an automatic decision of Approve or Decline on all orders held for review. The Auto Decision action can help you:
-
Boost efficiency and reduce workload
Automate routine approvals to reduce the number of orders left in manual review. This gives your fraud analysts more time to focus on complex cases.
-
Make faster order decisions
Set up conditions with third-party data in sequence with Auto Decision actions to evaluate cases more accurately and more efficiently.

We updated the Web Client SDK to 2.2.3. In this update, we improved our library for accessibility. Developer tools, like Lighthouse, no longer flag the Device Data Collector during audits. This minor update does not change any functionality or features. Use the latest Web Client SDK to ensure the best development compatibility.
