FinQub and Sardine: a signal source, on one record
If you landed here looking for a Sardine alternative, this is the honest answer: FinQub is not one. Sardine is a signal source, and FinQub is the record its signals land on. Here is how they fit together.
Sardine is a signal source
Sardine produces fraud and risk intelligence: device signals, behavioral signals, and risk scores that help you tell a good customer or transaction from a bad one. It is one of the vendors that feeds a risk decision, in the same family as your KYC, KYB, sanctions, and transaction-monitoring tools. Each of those produces a signal about a customer.
FinQub is the record those signals land on
FinQub is the single source of truth for fintech risk decisions. It does not produce fraud scores. It reconciles the ones Sardine and your other vendors produce onto one record per customer. So a Sardine signal is not read in isolation in its own dashboard; it sits on the record next to the KYC result, the sanctions screen, and the monitoring output, where the decision is actually made.
A score is a signal, not a decision. Your rulebook or your analyst makes the call on the whole record, and FinQub records the decision, the signals it stood on, and the policy version that applied.
How they work together
Run Sardine for fraud and risk, run FinQub beneath it as the record. Sardine's signals land on the customer record alongside every other vendor, so the decision is made on the full picture, and the look-back an examiner runs later draws on the same complete record rather than a single fraud console. You keep your Sardine account and contract. FinQub never resells signals.
Frequently asked questions
Is FinQub a Sardine alternative?
No. Sardine produces fraud and risk signals, device intelligence, behavioral signals, and risk scores. FinQub does not produce those signals; it is the record they land on, alongside the signals from your KYC, KYB, sanctions, and monitoring vendors. You keep Sardine and run FinQub beneath it.
How does a Sardine score fit on the record?
A Sardine score is a signal. It lands on the same record per customer as your other vendor signals, so the decision is made on the whole picture rather than on the fraud score alone. The score informs the decision; your rulebook or your analyst makes it, and FinQub records both.
Why not just use Sardine's own dashboards?
Sardine's view is excellent for fraud, but it is one view among several. The KYC result, the sanctions screen, and the transaction-monitoring output live elsewhere. FinQub reconciles them onto one record so the decision, and the later look-back, draw on all of it, not one console at a time.
