Mangopay, a provider of modular payment infrastructure, has announced the addition of Bertrand Dezard as the new Head of Sales for Fraud.

Dezard’s arrival is set to bolster the company’s global fraud prevention initiatives, particularly across Europe and Latin America, as part of Mangopay’s strategic expansion to broaden its client base with its acclaimed cybersecurity solutions.

Mangopay has been at the forefront of offering cutting-edge payment infrastructure solutions to premier European and global marketplaces since its inception in 2013. The company recently augmented its capabilities by acquiring Nethone, a renowned fraud detection and prevention specialist, in 2023. This strategic move has significantly enhanced Mangopay’s service offerings to its clients by integrating advanced cybersecurity technology, expertise, and intelligence.

At the heart of Mangopay’s service offerings is its AI-driven cybersecurity solution, developed by Nethone. This state-of-the-art technology provides comprehensive protection against a wide array of threats, such as account takeovers, reseller fraud, payment fraud, chargebacks, and return abuse. With features like real-time fraud detection, darknet insights, and device fingerprinting, Mangopay leverages years of darknet experience to safeguard businesses against sophisticated fraudulent techniques and behaviours.

Bertrand Dezard, with over 15 years of experience in the payment and fraud prevention industry, brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to Mangopay. His previous roles at Ravelin, Payplug, Braintree, and Visa Europe have endowed him with a deep understanding of the European payments landscape and the implementation of commercial optimisation tools to combat fraud. Dezard’s primary mission at Mangopay will be to drive the international expansion of the company’s fraud prevention solutions, focusing on serving eCommerce businesses, platforms, and the financial services industry during a period of significant growth.

Romain Mazeries, CEO of Mangopay, expressed his enthusiasm about Dezard’s appointment, highlighting his extensive experience and the positive impact it will have on the international expansion of Mangopay’s fraud prevention solutions. Dezard’s commitment to innovation and his keen insight into the needs of marketplaces and platforms are expected to significantly contribute to the company’s ongoing success.

Dezard shared his excitement about joining Mangopay, praising the company’s modular solution and its tailored approach to meeting the specific needs of marketplaces and platforms. He is eager to collaborate with CEO Romain Mazeries and the dedicated team of fraud prevention experts to further Mangopay’s international growth and innovation in anti-fraud solutions.
