Building a safer ecommerce world through the power of AI
Our Mission
Riskified aims to empower your business to unleash ecommerce growth by outsmarting risk. Ecommerce fraud teams play a crucial role in enabling their company’s growth and profitability. To do so, you require an enterprise-grade fraud and risk intelligence solution that can efficiently combat fraud, curb policy abuse, and boost revenue to the max. The problem is, the speed, scale, and sophistication of fraud and abuse can stretch the team and profit margins thin.
We believe risk should never keep you from growing your business with confidence.
That’s why we don’t just promise great business outcomes–we are accountable for them. As part of the strongest network of merchant brands that rely on our accurate machine learning approach, you can shift fraud chargeback liability and optimize performance according to your risk tolerance and business goals. Instead of feeling uncertain, you gain confidence and an accountable partner to your success. Take risk off the table with Riskified, and put your business on the sure path to growth and profitability.
Our Story
In 2013, Eido Gal and Assaf Feldman founded Riskified with the aim of enhancing the ecommerce experience for both merchants and consumers. As the landscape of shopping underwent significant transformations, traditional methods struggled to adapt. Their conviction in a more tech-forward approach drove them forward.
Riskified is a pioneer in using AI to fight fraud, leveraging big data and machine learning to approve more orders that merchants might otherwise decline. We now also protect customers from malicious account takeover attacks, combat payment failures at checkout, help merchants block abuse while upholding consumer-friendly policies, and more.
Our global team merges expertise in ecommerce fraud, payments, and customer insights to support pioneering ecommerce merchants worldwide. We help eliminate risk and uncertainty from their operations, empowering them to thrive in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
