Riskified

What is Riskified?

Riskified is a fraud and risk intelligence platform for ecommerce merchants. Founded in 2013 by Eido Gal and Assaf Feldman, the company officially launched on February 21, 2016. Its goal is to improve the ecommerce experience for both merchants and shoppers by using big data and machine learning to approve more orders that other systems might flag as risky — removing guesswork from fraud decisions and helping businesses grow revenue, cut costs, and improve the customer experience. The platform also addresses account takeover attacks, payment failures, and policy abuse.

What is Riskified used for?

Riskified’s platform covers the main fraud and risk challenges ecommerce businesses face:

• Chargeback protection — real-time decisions on orders, with liability shifted for fraud chargebacks and automated chargeback management and dispute resolution.
• Account security — protection against account takeover attacks, safeguarding customers from malicious attempts.
• Policy abuse prevention — blocking abuse while keeping the experience consumer-friendly.
• Payment optimization — helping prevent payment failures at checkout and supporting PSD2 compliance requirements.
• Revenue growth — approving more legitimate orders to maximize revenue and profit, while lowering operational costs.
• Flexibility — decisions adapt as the business grows, and performance can be fine-tuned based on risk tolerance and business goals.

Who is Riskified for?

Riskified is aimed at ecommerce teams and leaders responsible for risk and fraud, including fraud prevention managers, ecommerce risk managers, CFOs, financial officers, VPs of Product, and directors or senior managers overseeing fraud prevention and ecommerce risk management.
