Riskified Alternatives: 5 Fraud & Risk Tools Compared for 2026
Looking for alternatives to Riskified? The top Riskified alternatives in 2026 are Signifyd (closest direct competitor with similar chargeback-guarantee model), Sift, Kount, and Shopify-native fraud tools, plus Agentis (which addresses checkout margin risk rather than fraud). Riskified remains a strong choice for enterprise merchants in luxury, electronics, and travel verticals. For mid-market merchants whose checkout-risk profile is more about below-margin orders than chargebacks, Agentis is a more direct fit at substantially lower cost.
Why Merchants Look for Riskified Alternatives
Riskified focuses on fraud prevention and chargeback liability shift. That works well for enterprise merchants in high-fraud-risk categories (luxury, electronics, travel), but it leaves gaps that matter for high-volume Shopify Plus operations:
- Same as Signifyd — fraud-focused, not margin-aware; below-margin orders that pass fraud screening still confirm
- Enterprise-tier pricing structure typically inappropriate for sub-$10M GMV merchants
- Approval decisions are blackbox to merchants in some configurations, complicating margin attribution
- Integration effort is substantial; not designed for self-serve setup
Agentis is purpose-built for what Riskified cannot do: enforcing your profit floor at checkout in real-time. While Riskified reports on margins after the fact, Agentis evaluates every order against live COGS from NetSuite, freight zone costs, and FX rates — in under 10ms — before the order is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Agentis and Riskified?
Riskified is a fraud-prevention and chargeback-guarantee platform — it evaluates each order's fraud risk and either approves with chargeback liability shifted to Riskified, declines, or escalates. Agentis is a margin-governance platform — it evaluates each order's resulting margin given live COGS, freight, and FX, and blocks or adjusts orders below the configured profit floor. Fraud risk and margin risk are separate concerns; both need protection at scale.
Does Riskified enforce margin floors on approved orders?
No. Riskified's decisioning is fraud-based. A fraud-clean order with a stacked discount that pushes margin below floor will pass Riskified's checks and ship at a loss. Margin enforcement requires real-time access to product cost data, which is outside Riskified's scope. Agentis fills that gap as a parallel checkout-time decision.
Should I choose Signifyd or Riskified for fraud prevention?
Both are strong; the choice typically comes down to vertical specialization (Riskified has historic strength in luxury and travel; Signifyd has strength in mass-market retail), pricing structure, and ML model performance on your specific traffic. Either can be paired with Agentis for the margin layer — the combined fraud + margin stack is what most enterprise merchants converge on.
Can mid-market Shopify Plus merchants use Riskified?
Riskified can technically be deployed at mid-market scale but its pricing and integration effort are typically not justified below $20M+ GMV. For mid-market Shopify Plus merchants, Shopify-native fraud screening plus Agentis for margin governance is usually a more cost-effective combination. Larger high-fraud-risk merchants benefit more from the full Riskified deployment.
