Payment incident response

Open a clear first-hour checklist, preserve evidence and keep unverified claims separate from confirmed loss.

How the incident response checker works

The check ends with one next action. Missing evidence stays visible and never becomes proof that a payment is safe.

  1. Stop

    Pause related payments and supplier changes.

  2. Recall

    Contact the bank through its established route.

  3. Preserve

    Keep messages, headers, approvals and payment records.

  4. Notify

    Follow the company’s insurer, legal and reporting process.

Keep the decision with the evidence

A structured payment decision moving through evidence, independent verification and approval

Start from the real request

Keep the supplier and payment context attached to the check.

Use a separate route

Do not verify a request through new contact details contained in that same request.

Record the person deciding

The result supports the approver; it does not replace them.

Return to history

Open the full result later from the company workspace instead of rebuilding the case from email.
