Riskified, headquartered in Tel Aviv, helps businesses to realize the potential of eCommerce by making it safe, accessible, and frictionless. Their eponymous platform allows online merchants to create trusted relationships with their consumers. Leveraging machine learning that benefits from a global merchant network, the platform identifies the individual behind each online interaction, helping merchants eliminate risk and uncertainty.
In our specific case, NameScan is an interesting piece of software for administratively verifying the identity of those who have to enroll in courses or discuss a Thesis. The fact that NameScan can be integrated with other software (anti-plagiarism, for example, Turnitin) guarantees greater use efficiency. In this case, the integrated verification of identity and possible plagiarism helps us significantly limit fraud.
It is very appropriate when customers are placing orders using their credit cards instead of using PayPal. We work very hard to make sure that we are protected when orders are placed, as well as customers, and Riskified helps us to make that happen. It is an organized system that is easy to understand and navigate, and I would recommend it to other businesses!
Collaboration; Riskified builds strong relationships with their clients and works to always meet the clients' needs
Ascend; This is a great way for Riskifieds clients to meet, collaborate and learn from each other
Innovations; Riskified puts a huge emphasis on listening to their clients and finding a way to meet their needs, whether it's chargeback related, fraud screening related or abuse related.
The software still generates confusion, especially in the case of Asian names, often repetitive or similar to each other. In this case, the information it returns is not very accurate.
The numerous integrative databases that can be purchased are really very expensive.
Missing functionality/ explanation: not having full understanding why some orders with multiple "red flags" are accepted/approved by Riskified
Missing functionality: It would be great if there was an option to resubmit an order after approving a second look (so that the customer doesn't have to place a second order)
The support I've received isn't always uniform (sometimes the agent will ask me to provide additional information about an order, sometimes they won't. It seems to be random?)
We are likely to renew our use of Riskified. Their solution has become a critical component of our fraud prevention strategy and day-to-day operations. The combination of increased approval rates, reduced chargeback risk, and operational efficiency has delivered consistent value. Additionally, their collaborative approach and alignment with our customer experience goals reinforce our confidence in continuing the partnership long term.
Its very intuitive and I blieve that its well build ,someties I hae to train new colleagues at the team and I have to show them the tool and how they can work with it and normally they have no problem at all to work with it only with one fast and simple explanation
One of the most impressive things about Riskified, that really sets them apart from their competitors, is their client service. We have a dedicated account manager who is highly knowledgeable about both Riskified and our business and is very easy to work with. Riskified has supported us as our business has grown and evolved.
NameScan well integrated with our existing system, with less false positives results, where as with AuditGenius we get search results are not that great & sanctions list such as WorldCompliane, Dow Jones not up to mark, we have also issues with integration with our system . NameScan also offer us best competitive price .
We decided in favor of Riskified since cost/benefit wise was the best product. It is maybe less complete than its competitors, but you don't always need to be the "ultimate universal" solution to everything if you do your job well
Since implementing and working with Riskified we have seen a steady decrease in our fraud losses on our e-commerce orders. Riskified is able to quickly adjust its models to mitigate new trends
By eliminating the need to "challenge" orders we have been able to save on staffing needed for manual review and we have seen a decrease in callback rates for our fraud reviewed orders.
