Summary

Xendit, a leading payment gateway in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, has built a counter-fraud watchlist using Supabase to run automated checks against international sanctions lists. This helps verify the legitimacy of transactions and prevents delays on legitimate payments. The system was built and implemented within one week, leveraging Xendit's familiarity with Postgres technology. The solution has been in production for nine months without any issues.
