## Questions about payments and fraud analysts and AI

Will payments and fraud analysts in Malta be replaced by AI?

Partly. About 6 in 10 working hours of a payments and fraud analyst go to tasks AI can already do, mostly reconciling deposits and withdrawals against provider reports and documenting fraud cases for audit. Matching records and drafting case notes are automated, while exceptions, account decisions and sign-off stay with people.

Which payments and fraud analyst tasks is AI taking over?

Reconciliation and audit documentation are the most exposed, with reconciliation scoring 80 and fraud case documentation scoring 72 on exposure. AI matches records across the gaming platform and provider reports and drafts case notes and decision logs, so analysts mainly review the exceptions and sign off.

Which payments and fraud analyst tasks stay with people?

Testing new payment methods in a live market scores lowest at 35 on exposure, and tuning fraud rules scores 40. Live market testing needs people watching real transactions, and analysts test and take responsibility for threshold changes because a wrong rule can block legitimate players or let fraud through.

How do payments and fraud analysts stay valuable as AI takes on more work?

Move toward the judgement tasks AI leaves behind, such as reviewing edge-case withdrawals in your rules engine and validating linked accounts flagged for bonus abuse. Build skills in Kount rule tuning, SQL queries on provider data, and presenting fraud loss ratios in Tableau to management.
