The global e-commerce market size grew to a record $2.2 trillion in 2017, and there are no signs of a slowdown in 2018, as more and more people turn to the virtual marketplace for their shopping needs.
But this tremendous exponential growth also has a dark side. As digital channels are opening, and international brands are diversifying their offerings, fraudsters are seeking new, or rediscovering old, ways to capitalize on global opportunities.
MaxMind is heading to ad:tech New York, one of the world’s largest conferences for digital brands and technology leaders. Come visit us at our booth and learn more about our GeoIP and minFraud products, and stick around for a speech hosted by our Director of Business Development Jenn Sessler.
Deciding on the right fraud prevention and IP intelligence provider can be a daunting task. With worldwide internet usage projected to grow every year, your choice matters now more than ever. So, make an informed, educated one with MaxMind’s Paladin Report.
In the battle against e-commerce fraud, it is incumbent upon online merchants to know the enemy and the tactics they employ. When it comes to account takeover, online merchants face the added challenge of recognizing a fraudster masquerading as a valued and trusted customer.
In this blog post, we will provide you with information on what account takeover is, and how to combat it.
Every year, more than a billion consumers shop on e-commerce websites. And in 2016, a new startup called Fomo set out to help merchants reach that audience. To do that, Fomo first needed to find a service partner with expertise in geolocation. They chose MaxMind. “We’re a relatively new company, but our growth has been phenomenal since we added MaxMind’s GeoIP2 Precision services,” said Fomo’s co-founder Ryan Kulp.
MaxMind, the industry-leading provider of IP intelligence and online fraud detection tools, has been invited to present at the 2015 Merchant Risk Council (MRC) eCommerce Payments & Risk Conference in Las Vegas. Our co-presenters will include two of the world’s most prominent eCommerce companies: Orbitz, a leader in the online travel industry, and Western Union, a global money transfer giant. MRC’s own Global Director of Programs and Marketing will bring his extensive industry experience to the presentation as well. Whitepages Pro, one of the major providers of contact information in North America, will moderate our lively presentation.
We invite you to attend this panel discussion to learn more about best practices for preparing for, executing and evaluating your manual review processes. You’ll benefit by hearing specific examples of unique situations and fraud trends that caused online merchants to alter their tools or procedures. You’ll also have the chance to review some questionable transactions and engage in discussion about whether to approve or reject them.
