Chargebacks don’t often make headlines, but their impact is growing. By 2028, annual global chargeback volume is expected to reach 324 million transactions. The financial hit is only part of the story. Fees and penalties from processors, time and resources tied up in disputes and the risk of frozen accounts or even lost merchant relationships are all at stake. And with 61% of disputes linked to friendly fraud, retailers are left carrying the burden of proof against their own customers. Here’s what can be done: 🔍 Real-time monitoring to flag anomalies 📁 Automated evidence collection to strengthen cases ⚖️ Dispute management strategies that reduce volume at the source Fraud may be inevitable, but losing revenue to chargebacks doesn’t have to be. Retailers that get ahead of this challenge will protect not only margins but also long-term customer trust.

Five years ago, we watched businesses make an impossible choice: strong fraud prevention that killed user experience, or smooth onboarding that invited losses. We knew there was a better way. Today, our clients integrate SEON in as little as a few days, cut manual reviews by 75% and see higher approval rates alongside lower fraud. Thanks to Sixth Street Growth for leading our Series C, and to IVP, Creandum and our new investors for believing in this vision. We're just getting started. 🚀 Read about our journey and the company milestones that brought us to this point! https://lnkd.in/djkpGVRR 

💰$400 billion. That's what businesses lose to fraud every year. Traditional point solutions can't keep up. Fraudsters adapt across channels and geographies in hours, while most companies take months to deploy new defenses. That's why we built SEON to be something different: a unified platform for fraud and risk with 900+ real-time signals that deploys in days, not months. Our Series C, led by Sixth Street Growth, with IVP, Creandum and others, fuels the next chapter: smarter AI, global expansion and deeper integrations. Because in the race against fraud, speed and intelligence win. “With this new investment and our team's relentless focus, SEON's command center for fraud prevention and AML compliance is helping organizations move faster, safer and with greater confidence.” Read the full blog post from Tamas Kadar, CEO and co-founder here: https://lnkd.in/dPEbDhPN

We just closed $80 million in our Series C, led by Sixth Street Growth. This round will be used to accelerate our global expansion, advance AI-powered product development and support strategic talent acquisition. But the real story is what our clients are achieving. One eCommerce platform told us: "SEON helped cut fraud by 99% while our conversion rates actually improved." Another financial services client saw 87% fewer fraudulent transactions within weeks of deployment. Five years ago, this seemed impossible. Today, it's standard. To date, we’ve protected over 5,000 businesses globally and have prevented more than $300 billion in fraud losses. And with this funding, we can bring these results to more businesses worldwide, because growth and security shouldn't be a trade-off. 🚀 Read our full announcement here:  bit.ly/48gksq2

Once designed as consumer protection, chargebacks have morphed into a loophole increasingly exploited by… genuine customers. This “friendly fraud” often looks like: ➡️ A forgotten subscription mistaken for fraud ➡️ A child making an unauthorized family purchase ➡️ A customer claiming non-delivery despite confirmed delivery Recent reports show that 62% of businesses have faced this type of dispute. Merchants lose revenue, products and trust, even when they win the case. As digital commerce grows, the line between confusion and abuse is blurring. Prevention, not reaction, is becoming the only sustainable path forward. 💡

Full audit-readiness. #RegTech #AMLReporting #ComplianceEfficiency

In Brazil, synthetic fraud and user friction often share the same signals. Operators are learning the hard way that global fraud models can’t interpret local complexity: ❗ CPF errors look like fraud but are often just formatting issues. ❗ Liveness checks fail because of device fragmentation, not deception. ❗ Domestic payment limits expose more spoofing attempts, not fewer. The main lesson is that “suspicious” behavior must be redefined for each market. Success lies in identifying what legitimate activity actually looks like under Brazil’s infrastructure and training fraud systems accordingly. Treat local friction as a signal, not noise.
