Case Study: Papara reduces fraud and operational costs with Approov

Papara stops fraudulent API traffic in 7 days with Approov

Papara, a major Turkish financial services provider, faced a significant challenge with automated fraud shortly after its launch. Fraudsters were using scripts and bots to open fake accounts, take over existing ones, and perform automated transfers through its mobile APIs, which increased processing costs and threatened revenue growth. To address this, Papara turned to Approov for its mobile app protection service.

By integrating Approov, Papara ensured that only genuine, unmodified instances of its mobile app could access its backend services. The solution was implemented in just seven days. After a testing period, Approov was fully enabled to block all illegitimate API requests. This instantly stopped all phishing activities and the vast majority of automated fraud, resulting in a dramatic drop in operating costs for Papara.
