Ravelin research reveals that the average marketplace loses to fraud $11.4 million every year.

Marketplaces are multi-sided ecosystems, and fraud exploits every edge of the network.

Relationship-driven fraud can be difficult to deal with. On-demand ordering, aggregation, hundreds of partners and dozens of locales add to the challenge, while social media exposure presents a real threat to your brand image, from spreading fraud techniques to disgruntled customer amplification.

Ravelin helps online marketplaces maximize opportunities and minimize threats with AI-native decisioning and link analysis ideal for high-volume, complex online marketplaces.

We take a holistic view of marketplace risk, detecting dishonest behavior in real time across your ecosystem while keeping things smooth for legitimate customers.
