Our take
The growth in eCommerce over the last 20 years has also caused a large rise in consumer fraud. To combat this, Signifyd provides an end-to-end platform for commerce protection.
Its solution targets issues such as money lost to chargebacks, customer dissatisfaction from mistaken declines, and operational costs due to tedious and manual transaction investigations. Its machine learning, data-driven approach helps businesses reduce false positives and wrongly declined orders, permitting them to make instant ship/don’t ship decisions and improve the experience for legitimate customers.
The company has raised significant funding in the past which has supported its development thus far. It has also secured impressive customers such as Samsung, Lenovo and Walmart.
