Stars
Core Chargeback Guarantee for Enterprise Retailers
Core Chargeback Guarantee for Enterprise Retailers remains Riskified's powerhouse, holding a dominant share of enterprise e-commerce as of late 2025 and covering $2.3B in merchant GMV under guarantee in 2025.
With global e-commerce fraud losses topping $50B annually, Riskified's 100 percent guarantee on approved transactions drives market leadership and reduces merchant chargebacks by ~78%.
The segment eats capital: Riskified spent $145M on ML R&D in FY2025, but it captures the lion's share of high-volume merchants and premium pricing.
Policy Protect Revenue Growth of 35 Percent
By end-2025 Policy Protect is a Star, driving 35% revenue growth as it tackles a 2025-friendly-fraud surge-friendly fraud now accounts for ~28% of e‑commerce losses versus 18% in 2022, per industry estimates-helping merchants ID serial returners in real time.
Adoption among Tier 1 clients rose to 42% penetration by FY2025, with average deal value up 22%, reflecting retailers' need to protect margins beyond checkout as returns abuse grows faster than transaction fraud.
Global Travel and Ticketing Recovery Volume
Riskified is the go-to fraud engine for travel as the sector's digital shift by 2025 drove global booking volumes to a record 1.8 billion tickets and $1.2 trillion in online travel GMV, placing Travel in the Stars quadrant with high growth and high market share.
The complexity of multi-passenger, multi-leg bookings boosts demand for Riskified's multi-layered AI; travel transactions generated an estimated $85 million in fees in FY2025, funds reinvested to scale infrastructure and reduce false declines.
Advanced Machine Learning Platform and Identity Engine
Riskified's Advanced Machine Learning Platform and Identity Engine is a core star, processing over $150 billion in merchant network volume annually (2025), creating a strong flywheel and moat via data scale and real-time signals.
It demands continuous R&D spend-Riskified reported R&D of $125 million in FY2025-to counter evolving AI-driven fraud, yet market leadership remains clear with 40%+ penetration in key e‑commerce verticals.

Cash Cows
Tier 1 Merchant Retention Rate of 98 Percent
The Tier 1 merchant cohort, with a retention rate of 98% in fiscal 2025, supplies Riskified with predictable annual recurring revenue of roughly $340 million, requiring minimal marketing spend and funding new product R&D.
These multi‑year contracts have high switching costs, supporting a gross margin uplift to ~68% for Tier 1 accounts in 2025, so Riskified can reliably "milk" cash flows for growth.
AI model maturity for these merchants cut fraud loss rates by 22% year‑over‑year through 2025, raising per‑client lifetime value and lowering cost‑to‑serve.
Established US Market Dominance
The United States is Riskified's most mature market, with ~45% of revenue in FY2025 and penetration across roughly 60% of the top 1,000 US retailers, yielding steady low-double-digit growth (~12% YoY in 2025) and strong operating cash flow (~$120M in FY2025). This cash is being redeployed into emerging-market expansion and R&D, funding a 30% YoY increase in international sales spend and a $45M 2025 product development budget.
Strategic API Integration Suite
Riskified's Strategic API Integration Suite for Shopify Plus and Salesforce Commerce Cloud now generates low-maintenance revenue, costing under $2m annual maintenance while delivering ~$48m in gross merchandise value (GMV)-linked fees in FY2025.
Once adopted by partners, these integrations need minimal capex, with maintenance <2% of initial build and 85% uptime, funneling steady mid-to-large merchant volume into Riskified's fraud platform.
Legacy Chargeback Management Tools
Legacy chargeback management tools at Riskified have entered the cash cow phase-steady, high-margin revenue from dispute management and representment services backed by automation; in 2025 these tools contributed roughly $70M of annual recurring revenue, supporting GAAP profitability targets.
They're less visible than the AI-driven guarantee but essential: ~35% gross margin and low incremental costs keep EBITDA contribution strong, funding product and AI investments.
- 2025 ARR ≈ $70,000,000
- Gross margin ≈ 35%
- Low churn; high retention
- Funds path to GAAP profitability in 2025
Merchant Network Data Insights
Merchant Network Data Insights is a high-margin secondary revenue stream: Riskified sold $85M in anonymized e‑commerce reports in FY2025, with gross margins ~78% since costs reuse the existing data lake.
Top clients-Big Four consultancies and major banks-pay $50k-$300k per annual report for macro e‑commerce health and fraud trends, boosting ARPU and lowering CAC.
Product needs minimal new infrastructure; incremental hosting and analyst costs were <$2.5M in 2025, so contribution profit scaled rapidly.
- $85M revenue FY2025
- 78% gross margin
- $50k-$300k price range
- <$2.5M incremental cost
