On Monday, November 4, 2024, we will be deprecating the risk factor scores/
subscores data in the minFraud Factors service. Risk factor scores/subscores
will be removed from the API response in March, 2025.

Risk factor scores have been replaced by risk score reasons, to help you more
deeply understand your risk patterns and make more informed decisions. Please
review the risk score reasons for specific and understandable insights into why
a risk score is high or low.
