Welcome to
RISK IDENT

Our vision is to create a world where online fraud no longer exists!
We are working to achieve this vision with our team of more than 80 employees. We believe in what we do and are proud to be the experts in fraud prevention. Fraudsters are fast and well connected. They learn over time to overcome the weaknesses of traditional fraud prevention tools, but our self-learning and adaptable fraud prevention system prepares software companies for new fraud scenarios, both now and in the future.
We do not see ourselves as just a technology provider, but more as a partner in the fight against online fraud.

We secure more than 80 billion euros of annual turnover against fraud for our customers. We have an excellent market position and are financially backed. Today, our team consists of 80+ people at our HQ in Hamburg, with every single one of them loving what they do. We are always on the lookout for new challenges and for smart people to accompany us along the way!

Where Do We Come From, What Is Our Background?

RISK IDENT Origin - Icon

How RISK IDENT Was Born

RISK IDENT materialized from Liquid Labs in 2012 and has been financed and supported by the Otto Group. We consider ourselves a “mature startup,” meaning we have held onto the startup vibe and mindset but are financed by one of the world’s largest e-commerce companies — which provides us much more financial security compared to other startups, while leaving us enough space for innovation and new work. Our vision at RISK IDENT is to create a world where online fraud no longer exists.

How We Develop Our Software

At RISK IDENT, we love technology. We use the latest software components and look for the ideal technical component for every task. The complete development of our tools takes place in-house in our Hamburg office. This means we have short paths and can quickly identify and stop constantly-evolving types of fraud.
