Abstract	As the world witnesses, Card fraud detection has become more and more crucial observes a rise in new and innovative techniques used by offenders. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are at the forefront of the various fraud detection technologies that credit card firms and financial institutions are utilizing. The Nilson Report's startling statistics demonstrate the scope of the issue. Global losses due to credit and debit card fraud increased to $40.6 billion in 2022, up from $34.7 billion the year before, with the United States being responsible for a large 36.8% of these losses. Additionally, younger people, especially those between the ages of 20 and 29, were disproportionately affected by credit card fraud. Our study is unique in a number of respects. We used a carefully controlled dataset to guarantee that the values after preprocessing were accurate and complete. We enhanced the detection of fraudulent transactions by our model by using a wide range of features. To find the most suitable machine learning algorithm for our dataset, we also investigated a range of other techniques. Our study used a dataset with the transaction histories of over 300,000 people from the UCI Machine Learning Repository. We determined the best methods through a multi-step procedure that included data pretreatment, dataset division, and model selection. Our study is unique in a number of respects. We used a carefully controlled dataset to guarantee that the values after preprocessing were accurate and complete. We enhanced the detection of fraudulent transactions by our model by using a wide range of features. To find the most suitable machine learning algorithm for our dataset, we also investigated a range of other techniques. The Stacked Ensemble model, SN Algorithm (SVM + Naive Bayes), beat other models according to the results in terms of important metrics. Impressive AUC, CA, F1, accuracy, and recall ratings demonstrated the system's effectiveness in preventing card theft.
