• Celent recognized Feedzai’s AutoML solution, which enables streamlined model creation and maintenance across different fraud typologies.

Setting the Standard in AI-native Fraud Prevention

Feedzai’s AI-native RiskOps platform analyzes every individual’s unique behavior over extended time periods to deliver the most precise risk decisions available. Our hybrid approach blends supervised and unsupervised machine learning with proven rules-based methods, delivering highly accurate detection while minimizing false positives and maintenance overheads.

The Celent Solutionscape Matrix highlights Feedzai’s AutoML solution, which enables streamlined model creation and maintenance across fraud typologies. This adapts rapidly to evolving fraud patterns without requiring deep in-house data science expertise.

Most recently, we launched Feedzai IQ™, a network intelligence solution that incorporates privacy-preserving shared intelligence and fraud outcomes from across the global Feedzai community. This federated learning approach to fraud prevention is designed to help financial institutions make more informed risk decisions, thereby strengthening protection for banks, payment processors, and merchants at every customer interaction.

“Feedzai provides a transaction fraud detection platform that is differentiated by its granular analysis focusing on the behavior of individual entities rather than group profiling. Feedzai leverages AutoML to support streamlined model creation and maintenance.” — Celent’s 2025 Anti-Fraud Solutionscape and Technology Capabilities Matrix.

Comprehensive Fraud Coverage Across Channels and Modalities

Fraud attacks are not limited to a single point in the customer journey. They can occur at any point, from login to the end of the customer journey. Attacks can also happen on any digital channel, making it essential to have a holistic view of customer behavior and risk.

Feedzai protects financial institutions and their customers against a wide range of threats, including:

• Authorized Push Payment (APP) fraud
• Card-not-present fraud (CNP) & point-of-sale (POS) fraud
• Check and transfer fraud
• Account takeover (ATO) fraud and synthetic ID fraud
• Merchant bust-out fraud and chargeback risk
• Scams and social engineering fraud
• Malware, bot attacks, and money mule activity

This end-to-end coverage spans the entire fraud lifecycle, including transaction monitoring, investigation, case management, data orchestration, and reporting.

The use of a cloud-native, low-code/no-code platform enables flexible deployment across environments. Built for scalability, Feedzai enables banks and payment providers to make real-time decisions in milliseconds, allowing them to stop fraud without disrupting customers.

The Feedzai RiskOps Platform maintains the highest levels of customer trust by combining cutting-edge AI with explainability, fairness, and speed.

Adding to Feedzai’s Impressive Accomplishments

It’s both an honor and a privilege to be recognized as a Luminary vendor by Celent, adding to our string of proud accomplishments. In October, we reached $2 billion in valuation following a new round of investment. Earlier this year, we were also named a Behavioral Biometrics and Device Intelligence Leader in the SPARK Matrix™. 

These achievements demonstrate why Feedzia is the trusted partner of many of the world’s most innovative financial institutions, including Lloyds Banking Group, Fiserv, Jack Henry, and others. Together, we prevent billions of dollars in potential fraud losses each year and safeguard customer confidence.
