Sift · FinOps Profile

Sift Finops

FinOps view of Sift spend. Sift is a commercial digital trust and safety platform billed under a custom, sales-negotiated agreement rather than public usage rates. Cost is typically driven by the products enabled (Payment Protection, Account Defense, Content Integrity, Dispute Management, plus add-ons like PSP Merchant Management and Verification) and by assessed volume - events, transactions, or users scored. Because pricing is bespoke and not published, the meters and columns below are modeled to structure cost tracking, not reconciled against a Sift rate card.

Sift Finops is the FinOps profile for Sift on the APIs.io network, aligned with the FinOps Foundation Framework.

It defines 4 billable meters, billed in USD, on a monthly cycle, and pricing category committed-use.

The profile maps 8 FOCUS columns for cost-allocation reporting.

Tagged areas include Fraud Detection, Trust and Safety, Machine Learning, FinOps, and Cost Management.
