Sumsub, a global identity verification and fraud prevention platform, has joined the Merchant Risk Council (MRC), a leading international non-profit serving payments, fraud, and risk professionals.
The membership sees Sumsub align itself with a network focused on tackling some of the most pressing threats in digital commerce, including AI-driven fraud, account takeovers, synthetic identities, and payment abuse.
Through its participation in the MRC community, Sumsub will engage with fraud, payments, and risk professionals navigating challenges such as fake accounts, stolen identities, seller fraud, promotional abuse, chargebacks, mule accounts, and payment-related risks. The company says the membership will also deepen its expertise in e-commerce and marketplace fraud prevention and broaden its role within the wider digital trust ecosystem.
Sumsub provides identity verification, fraud prevention, and risk management solutions, operating across e-commerce, marketplace, and digital platform environments where user safety and payment risk are increasingly intertwined.
The move reinforces Sumsub’s commitment to supporting online businesses in combating fraud, reducing risk, and building trusted user ecosystems, as businesses seek more integrated approaches to managing identity and fraud in tandem.
Sumsub chief product officer Andrew Novoselsky said, “As fraud becomes more sophisticated, businesses need to think beyond compliance and focus on protecting trust throughout the customer lifecycle. Joining MRC allows us to collaborate more closely with merchants, marketplaces, and risk leaders around the world to better understand emerging threats, share best practices, and help build safer digital experiences.”
