MaxMind minFraud
Per-query fraud-risk scoring API — from $0.005/lookup, MaxMind's flagship paid product alongside GeoIP.
What it does well
- Predictable per-query pricing from $0.005 — no platform fee or annual minimum.
- Mature, stable JSON API used in production for two decades by major platforms.
- Bundles IP geolocation, proxy/VPN, email and device signals in one call.
Where it falls short
- API only — no dashboard, no case management, no rule editor UI out of the box.
- Risk score is a single number plus signals; no model explainability beyond the signals.
- Smaller signal graph than Sift / Forter — best as one input among several, not sole defense.
