How does the filter protect me?
Merchants with an especially high transaction volume can use this filter to reduce the number
of transactions that their staff must review—transactions below the specified price level are
accepted without further analysis.
Custom Filters
You create Custom filters by combining up to five existing filters. A well-designed Custom
filter can more accurately identify suspicious transactions because it is fine-tuned to the
unique needs of your business (for example, you can specify a particular combination of
amount, buyer location, and shipping location). For this reason, fewer legitimate transactions
are unnecessarily held for review.
For example, a Custom filter that triggers only when both the Card Security Code Failure and
AVS Failure filters trigger will set aside transactions that are quite suspicious.
NOTE: You can create a combined maximum (test plus live) of 15 Custom Filters. For
example, if you currently have 5 test Custom Filters and 10 live Custom Filters, you
cannot create any more Custom Filters until you delete one of the existing Custom
Filters.
See PayPal Manager online help for details on creating a custom filter.
