Forter

Forter is a New York City-headquartered ecommerce fraud prevention and digital identity platform founded in 2013 by Michael Reitblat and Alon Shemesh. The company operates an AI-powered decision platform for digital commerce that helps merchants approve more legitimate transactions while blocking fraud, account takeover, payment abuse, policy abuse, and return/refund abuse. Forter's products include Fraud Management, Payment Optimization (3DS, card vaulting, network uplift, payment orchestration, predictive routing), Dispute / Chargeback Recovery, Account Protection (sign-up, login, session), Abuse Prevention (checkout and post-purchase), Element for Payment Service Providers, and an Agentic Commerce suite for AI-agent-initiated transactions. The platform is built on what Forter describes as the world's largest first-party identity network, derived from real consumer interactions across hundreds of leading retailers, marketplaces, and food-delivery brands such as Adidas, eBay, Instacart, Nordstrom, Priceline, Sephora, and Wayfair. Forter exposes a public Core API (orders, 3DS, disputes, accounts, merchants, compensation, data privacy) and an Evidence API documented at docs.forter.com, alongside prebuilt integrations for Magento/Adobe Commerce, Salesforce B2C Commerce, commercetools, Adyen, Braintree, Checkout.com, Paysafe, Worldline, Worldpay, and others. Forter is also the sponsor of the open-source Trusted Agentic Commerce Protocol, a secure authentication and data-encryption protocol for AI agents, merchants, and merchant vendors. The company has raised approximately $525M in venture funding from Sequoia Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, NEA, and others, and has been valued at roughly $3B at last public reporting.
