Riskified promo abuse detection review
Riskified Policy Protect focuses on ecommerce policy abuse, including promotions and referral incentives. It examines identity relationships and merchant policy context; it is distinct from the company’s Chargeback Guarantee product.

- Product boundary

Strengths

- Ecommerce context connects incentive use with broader policy behavior.
- Investigation tools help review ambiguous linked-account cases.
Limitations
- Chargeback Guarantee does not establish reimbursement for every promotion loss.
- Confirm required merchant events and Policy Protect entitlement.

What the score means
The 7.7 out of 10 score is an editorial assessment under the same 40-criterion, seven-category framework. The rubric emphasizes account linkage, promotion eligibility, legitimate-user handling and intervention before a reward is granted. A score is not a measured detection percentage.
The award and score are distinct. Read all criteria and relative weights and verify the required signal and integration for your traffic.
How to evaluate it

FAQ
Is Policy Protect the same as Chargeback Guarantee?
No. They address different risks and require their own product and contractual scope.
Can a valid payment still involve promo abuse?
Yes. A genuine payment method does not establish that the customer is eligible for another welcome or referral reward.
Does the review promise reimbursement for promo losses?
No. Confirm any financial coverage in the specific contract rather than inferring it from a separate payment product.
