What’s the easiest industry for a fraudster to infiltrate? The travel industry processes billions in transactions across millions of anonymous users with minimal real-time validation. That’s a playground for account fraud, identity spoofing, and bot attacks.

Fraud losses in travel bookings crossed $1.6 billion globally in 2024 alone — and that’s just the reported part. Every step, from search to booking to boarding, creates surface area for fraudsters to exploit.

Stolen identities, fake accounts, abuse of loyalty programs, credential stuffing, device spoofing — it’s all happening under the radar. Worse? Most travel apps are designed for speed, not security, leaving platforms stuck cleaning up after refund fraud, chargebacks, and customer churn.

At CrossClassify, we’ve built a battle-tested platform to detect and stop a wide range of frauds and cybersecurity threats from account takeover attacks to bot abuse and device fingerprint evasion, tailored specifically for travel-related apps.
