Overview
Feedzai is a financial crime prevention company, founded in 2011 in Coimbra, Portugal, that builds an AI-driven risk management platform used by banks, payment service providers, merchant acquirers and core banking providers to detect fraud and financial crime in real time. The company reports its RiskOps Platform processes around 120 billion events per year, secures roughly $9 trillion in payments annually, and protects about 1 billion consumers, with customers including Mastercard, Fiserv, BTG Pactual and CaixaBank.
The platform combines transaction fraud detection, scam and authorized-push-payment (APP) fraud prevention using behavioral biometrics and device intelligence, new-account fraud screening at onboarding, and AML transaction monitoring and watchlist screening. Feedzai IQ adds network intelligence for cross-institution risk analysis, and Feedzai Orchestration automates account-opening decisioning. The company also publishes FairGBM, a patented technique for reducing algorithmic bias in machine-learning fraud models.
Feedzai is built for financial institutions rather than corporate back offices, and its public site and documentation do not describe a certified ERP connector (NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage Intacct or Acumatica). Integration is via API, aimed at banking, payments and core-banking platforms rather than an ERP payment run. In 2025 the European Central Bank selected Feedzai, partnering with Capgemini Germany, to provide fraud and risk management for the Digital Euro project.
