# Pre-requisites



 For setting up FRM, below are the pre-requisites:

* **Juspay Dashboard** **Access** 
  
  * Merchants are required to procure the Juspay merchant dashboard access by creating an account ([Sandbox](https://sandbox.portal.juspay.in/) / [Production](https://portal.juspay.in/)) or from Juspay Business SPOC.
  * This dashboard can be used for: 
    
    * Gateway setup
    * Enabling/Disabling payment instruments
    * Security key generation
    * Webhook URL configuration
    * Traffic monitoring and analytics
* **Fraud and Risk Management (FRM) Module** 
  
  Merchants must have the **FRM module enabled**  on the Juspay Merchant Dashboard. Contact your **Juspay Business SPOC**  to get the module enabled.
* `RISK_CHECK`**Merchant Config** 
  
  * The `RISK_CHECK`merchant configuration must be enabled to allow fraud risk evaluation for transactions.
  
  > **Note**
  > The `RISK_CHECK` configuration is mandatory for performing fraud risk checks with any FRM provider, including **JUSPAYFRM** . If this configuration is not enabled, risk check will not be triggered during transaction processing.
  > 
  > If these not already enabled, please contact your **Juspay Business SPOC**  to enable`RISK_CHECK` merchant configuration.
* **Client Id**  - This is MerchantID which is your identifier in the Juspay systems.
* **API Key**  - API Key is used to authenticate the FRM module while configuring the FRM logics.  It will be created during the FRM enablement at the Juspay team and shared it over mail.

> **Note**
> * **No changes are needed in the payload**  or API endpoint for configuring the static rules.
> * It is essential to **consume the FRM response**  provided in the Juspay **Order Status API**  or order/transactional **webhooks**  to capture and act on fraud-risk signals effectively.
