Maya Shield
Pause. Check. Protect what matters.
A consumer-first fraud protection experience designed to help people pause, check, preserve evidence and navigate recovery safely.
Designed forConsumers and communities
Governance state
CONTROLLED DEMONo live mobile money connection, and no real consumer data, behind anything on this site.
All boundariesThe challenge
Fraud is decided in the minute before money moves.
A convincing message, an urgent call, a payment request that looks right. The person deciding is usually alone, under pressure, with no one to ask. Maya Shield is designed to be that pause — a clear, neutral check before acting, and organized help afterwards if something has already gone wrong.
How it works
What happens when something feels wrong.
The Maya Shield journey is designed around one person and one decision.

Boundaries
What is not live
- No live mobile money connection, and no real consumer data, behind anything on this site.
- Journeys shown publicly are simulated.
- Initial language availability will be published only after operational validation. The preview does not claim Twi or other languages are live.
Real-time wallet visibility, transaction interception, SIM-change signals, automatic reversal and authoritative provider status require lawful provider integrations. Maya does not claim these are live.
