Businesses are estimated to lose $206bn by 2025 as a result of payments fraud.

Checkout.com VP of risk and identity product Ido Lustig said: “With billions of dollars being spent online every year we are seeing payments fraud becoming increasingly sophisticated, making robust online fraud prevention and identity verification critical.

“As one of the leading payment service providers to global businesses, we are continuously investing in deep capabilities dedicated to mitigating fraud risk and enhancing authentication. Our innovative solutions allow merchants to take complete control of their customer journeys to deploy either rules-based or dynamic machine-learning authentication strategies.

“Our recent acquisition of Ubble, a leading identity verification provider and continued investment in this space will add significant value to our fraud management suite over the coming years.”

Last month, a Bloomberg report stated that Checkout.com will axe nearly 100 jobs to concentrate on ‘priorities’.
