LISBON, Portugal and SAN MATEO, Calif., Dec. 14 (Korea Bizwire) – Feedzai, the leading RiskOps platform, today announced that has experienced a 125% year-over-year growth in new Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) in Q3. Large multi-year enterprise deals closed in the US, EMEA, APAC, and LATAM with 100% year-to-date growth in new logos.
Feedzai recently announced the evolution of financial risk management, with the introduction of the world’s first RiskOps Platform in a single, comprehensive cloud-based platform to manage multiple forms of risk and compliance. Today, more than 20 percent of the world’s money flows through Feedzai while the company secures the bank accounts of 1 in every five people. In August 2021, Feedzai acquired Revelock and became the world’s largest Financial Intelligence Network (FIN), a vault of more than a trillion data points, sessions, and profiles of both good and bad actors.
“Feedzai keeps growing at a steady rate and we are winning the most important deals in this space. The partnerships we’re forging mean that we will be redefining the way companies operationalize risk in the years to come, with a long-lasting positive impact for hundreds of millions of people every day,” said Nuno Sebastiao, Co-founder, and CEO of Feedzai. “It was also time to step back and reevaluate not just the tools we use to fight fraud or money laundering, but the overall approach we take to developing risk management solutions. RiskOps is a unified theory that allows teams to move from reactionary, one-off point solutions to a comprehensive platform that removes the silos and adds real substance and meaning to their work.
As part of the growth, Feedzai has achieved several important milestones, including:
