Verification of Payee (VoP) plays a pivotal role in ensuring payments reach their intended recipients, significantly reducing the risk of fraud and misdirection.
By matching the name and IBAN in SEPA transfers, VoP minimizes instances where funds could be misrouted, ensuring only correct details lead to successful transactions.
The integration of VoP with PSD2 and SCA protocols enhances security around payments, utilizing advanced methods like biometrics for authenticating the identity of payees.
Despite the benefits, challenges such as varied adoption among banks and the high implementation costs hinder the widespread implementation of VoP systems in Europe.
