# What is Confirmation of Payee (CoP)?

Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is an account name-checking service that aims to reduce the risk of accidental or fraudulent payments being sent to the wrong account for UK domestic payments. It operates by verifying the name of the account holder you're intending to pay (payee) against the details held by their accounts service provider.
