ISO-TECH High-reliability and Cost-effective Clamp Meters from RS Components Enable Safe and Fast Current Measurements
HONG KONG, Aug. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- RS Components <http://hken.rs-online.com/> (RS), the trading brand of Electrocomponents plc <http://www.electrocomponents.com/> (LSE:ECM), the world's leading high service distributor of electronics and maintenance products, has announced availability of two new high-reliability clamp meter products that are designed for making safe and non-intrusive current measurements in a range of electrical, panel and equipment maintenance applications.
Clamp meters are ideal tools for making spot checks and verifying system conditions before deploying more specialised tools and incurring additional costs. The compact and ergonomically designed ISO-TECH ILCM03A and ICM30R clamp meters come at prices that are approximately 30% cheaper than leading brands and are must-have devices for any electrician's or maintenance professional's toolbox.
The ILCM03A <http://hken.rs-online.com/web/p/clampmeters/7794692/> is primarily geared toward current leakage detection, while a key feature of the ICM30R is its ability to make true-RMS AC current readings. Both devices also offer reliable and accurate voltage and resistance measurements as well as continuity testing for circuit breaks.
The ILCM03A clamp meter is a highly portable device with compact dimensions of only 210 x 62 x 35.6mm. It also has a single large rotary function-selection switch enabling one-handed measurement and a large backlight 3.75-digit LCD with an analogue bar graph, making it a tool that is easy to use and easy to read in any environment. The meter also offers a large-jaw design that enables non-intrusive current measurement on cables and wires that are up to 30mm in diameter.
The ICM30R <http://hken.rs-online.com/web/p/product/7870499/> clamp meter integrates dual Hall sensors to provide reliable and accurate current measurements, and provides the true-RMS AC current value of both pure and distorted waveforms. The meter is also a highly portable and easy-to-use and -read device that features a special hand-guard design, which provides additional user protection that prevents direct contact with electrical conductors.
Manufactured and tested to international standards, both ISO-TECH clamp meters are rated to CAT II 600V and CAT III 300V, according to IEC 61010. The meters come with a three-year warranty and are available to purchase direct from RS stock globally. For more information please visitwww.iso-techonline.com <http://www.iso-techonline.com/>.

ProTek Devices' Newest TVS Array Provides Overvoltage Protection in High Speed Applications
TEMPE, Ariz., Aug. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ProTek Devices has introduced a new transient voltage suppressor array (TVS array) for overvoltage circuit protection in a variety of high speed applications such as Gigabit Ethernet, LAN / WAN equipment, notebooks and desktop computers, and more. The new PLR2512 is an ultra-low capacitance (3pF typical) TVS array with 100 watts peak pulse power per line (typical = 8/20 micro seconds).
The PLR2512 is also ideal for integrated magnetics / RJ-45 connectors, security cameras, and industrial controls applications. The device meets IEC standards requirements for 61000-4-2 covering electrostatic discharge (ESD) and 61000-4-4 covering electrical fast transients (EFT). ESD protection is > 25 kilovolts. The PLR2512 protects two line pairs and delivers low leakage current (10nA) and a low stand-off voltage of 2.5 volts. The minimum and maximum breakdown voltages are 2.7 and 3.6 volts, respectively. The maximum snapback voltage is 2.8 volts. The component is RoHS and REACH compliant. Operating and storage temperatures are -55 to 150 degrees Celsius.
This device is available in the space-saving molded DFN-8 package configuration. The package minimizes lead inductance to prevent overshoot voltages during high ESD current events. It has an approximate weight of just seven milligrams. It features lead-free nickel palladium gold plating and a solder reflow temperature of 260 â 270 degrees Celsius. The PLR2512 has a flammability rating of UL 94V-0.
Pricing and Availability ProTek Devices' PLR2512 TVS array series is now available in mass quantities. Pricing varies by the number of units per order. The TVS array is available in eight millimeter tape and reel, per EIA standard 481. A data sheet for the PLR2512 can be download from the ProTek Devices website.

runScribe Fitness Wearable Exceeds 200% of Kickstarter Goal in First Week

runScribe Fitness Wearable Exceeds 200% of Kickstarter Goal in First Week
Advanced kinematic metrics help runners assess performance and make smarter training decisions
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Scribe Labs unveiled its first product, runScribe(TM), on Kickstarter last week and saw its campaign surpass the $50,000 funding goal in 52 hours. The fitness wearable provides kinematic metrics that help an athlete understand how factors like shoe selection, terrain and fatigue impact their running mechanics. Built with an advanced 9-axis integrated motion processor, runScribe's kinematic engine delivers the most advanced set of running metrics available outside of a professional lab environment.
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20140825/139095
The metrics offered in today's sports wearables are too limited to help athletes make meaningful change to improve their performance or reduce injury. While most wearable technology merely tracks steps, distance and speed - runScribe makes thousands of calculations for every stride and reports on 13 detailed metrics using kinematics - the study of the geometry of motion. The scale and detail of data available through runScribe has never been captured in a consumer device, giving athletes, trainers and coaches real-world data to make informed training decisions.
"The response from runners, both casual and professional, has been rewarding because they understand that running is a sport with an incredibly high injury rate. The metrics that we use today to assess our performance only tell part of the story," explains Tim Clark, CEO and co-founder of Scribe Labs. "As a community, we need to be smarter about how we run, and with runScribe, runners can have a deeper understanding about how the decisions they make impact their running mechanics."
To learn more about runScribe and new features being offered as the campaign exceeds its target, visit Kickstarter.
About Scribe Labs
Scribe Labs founders Tim Clark and John Litschert met in 1993 at the US Olympic Training Center (USOTC), where they were part of a team that developed a cycling model using power pedals and 3D video. Their shared passion for technology and sports science resulted in their first product, runScribe, a lightweight, convenient running wearable that provides a 3D view of how an athlete runs. Scribe Labs products are driven by the belief that capturing real world performance data will advance the field of sports science, and help athletes, coaches and trainers make smarter training decisions. http://www.runscribe.com

Tablet TV Sees Huge Opportunity Ahead Of San Francisco Launch

Tablet TV Sees Huge Opportunity Ahead Of San Francisco Launch
New data from Magid Associates: Tablet TV Strongly Desired By Tablet Owners in the U.S.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Tablet TV is nearing its San Francisco-area beta launch in partnership with the KOFY-TV station, owned by Granite Broadcasting - and the timing looks to be ideal. There is extremely strong market demand for an untethered tablet live television solution, and the demographics of this market are the kind that advertisers love. By putting the ability to watch and record all subscription-free, live HD television anywhere directly onto tablets (through an over-the-air signal transmitted to a small antenna), Tablet TV looks well-positioned to capitalize on consumers' unmet needs.
That's according to new data from Frank N. Magid Associates, a research-based strategy consulting firm. Magid's latest research finds a clear market opportunity for Tablet TV, as 33% of all tablet owners consider themselves very likely to use Tablet TV. Given that almost half of the current US population with Internet access owns a tablet, or about 110 million people, the scale of the opportunity is clear.
"The data from Magid Associates confirms our belief that there is a strong appeal to have a simple TV destination on tablets that makes it easy to watch and record live, free, HD broadcast TV without needing an internet connection, video-on-demand movies and programs, integrated social networking, and access to everything available on the internet," says Leonard M. Fertig, CEO Motive Television. "Providing a low-cost way for tablet viewers to watch the most popular programs with measurable viewing information for the industry on the fastest growing screens in America is our goal."
Furthermore, the demand for tablet television content is overwhelming - and continues to increase. Tablet owners spend two-and-a-half hours per day on their tablets, and one-third of them watch video on the devices daily. More than half of tablet owners would watch additional television content on their tablets if it were available, and this is far higher for those that are very interested in Tablet TV.
Tablet TV will allow consumers to watch free over-the-air television any time, anywhere they want. Tablet owners interested in Tablet TV plan to spend nearly half of their viewing time watching television on their tablets away from home, at places like sporting events and airports. And at home, Tablet TV would offer a robust second-screen viewing option, which has become of particular importance to advertisers.
Yet even more attractive to advertisers may be the market that Tablet TV is set to capture. Consumers very interested in Tablet TV are largely 25-54 year-olds with a broad ethnic representation, especially among Hispanics, are more likely to be parents, and are heavy media consumers across the board. Given that watching local news content on tablets is of primary interest to this group, media companies will surely take note as well.
"We have watched video viewing on tablets climb steadily for years now, but it has remained clear that a huge opportunity existed around letting consumers watch live television content on tablets," says Andrew Hare, Magid's Director of Research. "Consumers essentially want to be able to watch whatever they want, whenever they want, wherever they want, and we haven't seen anything that offered this until now - clearly Tablet TV could fulfill a huge market need," added Hare.
For more information, contact Andrew Hare at ahare@magid.com.
How Tablet TV Works
Tablet TV is a video television service that will enable the viewing of free, live, high definition Broadcast Television (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS, Univision, etc.) over-the-air television channels on your tablet. Tablet TV also enables you to record broadcast television content for later viewing such as live network prime time programming, local news, major sporting events and more. All these features are available without the need for a cable, satellite, Internet connection or cellular phone data plan.
Second, in addition to watching Broadcast Television for free on your tablet regardless of whether or not you have a pay TV subscription, Internet connection, or cellular phone data plan, you can also watch premium movies or TV shows on demand through Tablet TV.
Third and finally, Tablet TV enables internet connected viewers to access social media capabilities such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. where you can learn and exchange information about the video content of interest.
The Tablet TV startup kit consists of a T-Pod, powered by ePICT (which acts as an antenna), and an app which is downloaded to your tablet. The T-Pod connects wirelessly with the tablet and the app enables the Tablet TV user to navigate Broadcast TV channels, record programs, and access Video On Demand (VOD) offerings.

The new PLR2512 is an ultra-low capacitance (3pF typical) TVS array with 100 watts peak pulse power per line (typical = 8/20 micro seconds).
The PLR2512 is also ideal for integrated magnetics / RJ-45 connectors, security cameras, and industrial controls applications. The device meets IEC standards requirements for 61000-4-2 covering electrostatic discharge (ESD) and 61000-4-4 covering electrical fast transients (EFT). ESD protection is > 25 kilovolts. The PLR2512 protects two line pairs and delivers low leakage current (10nA) and a low stand-off voltage of 2.5 volts. The minimum and maximum breakdown voltages are 2.7 and 3.6 volts, respectively. The maximum snapback voltage is 2.8 volts. The component is RoHS and REACH compliant. Operating and storage temperatures are -55 to 150 degrees Celsius.
This device is available in the space-saving molded DFN-8 package configuration. The package minimizes lead inductance to prevent overshoot voltages during high ESD current events. It has an approximate weight of just seven milligrams. It features lead-free nickel palladium gold plating and a solder reflow temperature of 260 - 270 degrees Celsius. The PLR2512 has a flammability rating of UL 94V-0.

Williams Helde Introduces The Mobius Cycle(TM) To Explain Considered Purchase Behavior And Flow Of Information
Non-linear consumer lifecycle model replaces antiquated purchase funnel
SEATTLE, Aug. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Williams Helde Marketing Communications has announced the official release of an innovative marketing and consumer behavior model to explain how customers receive information and make considered purchase decisions in the current multimedia environment.
Known as The Mobius Cycle(TM), the philosophy is a departure from the classic purchase funnel marketers have used for years to map the buyer's journey. Whereas the funnel is tidy, logical and linear, with a clearly defined beginning and ending, customers can enter The Mobius Cycle at any stage. It is a non-linear model with multiple segments running in perpetuity. A whitepaper on the Mobius Cycle can be found at http://www.williams-helde.com/mobius.
The Mobius Cycle describes how customers are influenced by a variety of sources and how they turn information into not just one finite purchase decision, but an ongoing and ever-evolving relationship with a product or brand.
"Instead of looking at the lifecycle with a single point of entry, we looked at the entire process holistically. This gave us the ability to see how one segment affects and overlaps with the others, and determine the strengths and weaknesses within that cycle," Williams Helde president Marc Williams said. "We created six main areas of focus and looked at each element individually, analyzing the cycle as a whole to inform a complete marketing plan for any business model."
"Today, people can interact with a brand at any point within the purchase lifecycle. Not to mention, there has been a major convergence of paid, owned and earned media to add to the decision process," Williams said. "In fact, mass media is no longer the driving factor in awareness and brand perception. And even 'new' media is no longer considered 'new' -- it's all just media these days. For advertisers, this means that those influences we tried to control for so many years need to be rethought."

How to Pimp Your Practice Room: German Music Producer's Tips for Successful Live Recordings
Star producer Moses Schneider, inspiration for the Strokes founder Gordon Raphael, is releasing a second edition of "the alternative workbook" as an e-book with sound samples
BERLIN, August 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
German star producer Moses Schneider is now publishing his book "The alternative
workbook or how to pimp your practice room." Schneider is one of Germany's most
influential music producers. Under his influence, Gordon Raphael recorded two Strokes
albums. Schneider passes on his knowledge with "The alternative workbook". It is now
mandatory reading for live recording. He explains techniques to produce the best possible
recordings without great expense as well as descriptions and sound samples. Schneider
comes out with visual expressions like "The sound is bone dry, the vocals sound like they
are beginning to spit" which present his musical understanding with pictures you can
imagine.
He shares his personal approach to producing and his practical experience, including
recording the metal band Kreator.
Schneider gives insight into his approach to what is essential for successful
recordings. "Anyone who prefers live recordings knows that the total is more than the sum
of their parts. Since bands play together, they have to hear each other when they record."
Schneider is revered by international producers because of his structured and at the
same time emotional approach. Gordon Raphael has worked with Schneider for a long time.
"Moses is the Albert Einstein of music production. I would not have been able to build up
Transporterraum in New York without Moses' help. He understands how to discover the
individual sound and recording approach of every band. He talks about these experiences in
his book - everyone who plays in a band can use this information."

Maximise VMware Investment with BRidgeIT, Bringing iSCSI Simplicity Whilst Sweating Fibre Channel Assets
BOULDER, Colorado and CHRISTCHURCH, England, August 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Bridgeworks, innovator and provider of the world's largest family of storage gateways

Storage Gateway, the world's first. Building on the success and customer demand for the
Oresund EFC102200 10Gb iSCSI to Fibre Channel Storage Gateway, coupled with the falling
prices for 40Gb within the Data Centre, Bridgeworks enables organisation to capitalise on
the next level of performance without reconfiguring the underlying Fibre Channel
infrastructure.
Many organisations made a Fibre Channel decision, however with the implementation of
VMware (or Hyper V) the installation, quoting VMware, is "difficult" requiring constant
rezoning and rerouting. Blogs are full of comments regarding organisations wishing they
had a dual strategy but due to investment in Fibre Channel equipment existing assets
cannot be jettisoned.
The Oresund Gateways solve this business dilemma, simply.
An easy 15 minute install of an Oresund Gateway, allows organisations to continue to
sweat their existing Fibre Channel environment while reaping the benefits of iSCSI in a
VMware environment. In simple terms the Fibre Channel environment works as if it were
iSCSI, removing the inhibitors and providing price performance, failover capability, ease
of administration, agility, performance and an excellent migration strategy. The Oresund
Gateways are non-intrusive therefore there is no disruption, no blackout during data
transition and no procedural change.
The investment into virtualisation normally is justified on the grounds of a reduction
in capital and operational expenditure, lowering the environmental footprint along with
providing high availability for Disaster Recovery. The Oresund Gateway compliments those
ideals, allowing organisations to leverage the value of virtualization with their existing
investment in Fibre Channel.

Clear Strength: OtterBox Introduces Alpha Glass Fortified Glass Screen Protectors
FORT COLLINS, Colo., Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- When it comes to screen protection, smartphone users must choose between a scratch protector that covers the screen with a foggy, bubble-filled film or opting for a naked, scratched touch screen. These flawed options are made obsolete with OtterBox(®) Alpha Glass((TM)), the toughest screen protector yet, boasting flawless clarity, reactive touch, anti-shatter glass and precision application.
To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.multivu.com/players/English/7279451-otterbox-introduces-alpha-glass-fortified-glass-screen-protectors-for-smartphones/
From the No. 1-selling case brand for smartphones in the U.S., OtterBox Alpha Glass offers a pure touch screen experience with maximum protection against scratches and impact.(*) Alpha Glass is quick and simple to install, does not affect display clarity and is available now for Apple(®) iPhone(®) 5/5s, iPhone 5c and Samsung(®) GALAXY S(®) 5.
"Alpha Glass was designed for smartphone users who want a truer touch screen experience with the benefits of protection from scratches and drop," said OtterBox CEO Brian Thomas. "The unique properties of our shatterproof glass bring a completely new experience to our customers. Alpha Glass is so clear and smooth, most people will forget they even have a screen protector on. The tactile experience is second to none, with no 'sticky' or 'tacky' texture."
Installing the GALAXY S 5 and iPhone 5/5s/5c glass screen protector is simple. Lightly coat the glass with the provided alcohol wipe, clean the display with the included microfiber cleaning cloth to remove fingerprints and dust, and align the screen protector with the Alpha Glass application card. Gentle pressure safely secures the screen protector and pushes out any air for bubble-free coverage. Alpha Glass can be easily removed at any time with no leftover residue.
Alpha Glass can be used as a standalone screen protector or be combined with premium protective cases from OtterBox for a complete solution. Compatible versions of Alpha Glass are available for Commuter Series(®), Commuter Series Wallet, Symmetry Series((TM)) and Resurgence((TM)) Power Case.
For more information on Alpha Glass, visit otterbox.com.

Elephant Talk Completes Next Migration of Iusacell Subscribers in Mexico
1.75 million Iusacell subscribers migrated onto ET's Software DNA® 2.0 Platform to date
MEXICO CITY and OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Elephant Talk Communications Corp. (NYSE MKT: ETAK) ("Elephant Talk" or "the Company"), a global provider of Software Defined Network Architecture (ET Software DNA® 2.0) platforms and cyber security solutions, today announced that it has successfully migrated the next phase of Grupo Iusacell ("Iusacell") existing subscribers in Mexico onto its dedicated platform. Elephant Talk plans further migrations over the next two quarters, as Iusacell completes its transition by rolling out new services for its Mobile Network Operator ("MNO") and Mobile Virtual Network Operator ("MVNO") clients in the Mexican market.
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20120917/MM75872LOGO
"With this migration completed we now have approximately 1.75 million Iusacell subscribers migrated onto our platform," commented Steven van der Velden, Chairman and CEO of Elephant Talk. "Based on the first three successful migrations we have completed, we are confident that we will remain on course with our planned migration of approximately five million pre-paid GSM subscribers and almost three million other Iusacell subscribers."
Martin Zuurbier, Chief Technology Officer of Elephant Talk, added, "In close cooperation with Iusacell, we have successfully migrated another group of Iusacell subscribers without a single SIM-module having to be changed. This performance confirms our confidence in completing all migrations as planned."
Elephant Talk's ET Software DNA® 2.0 platform incorporates virtualized software technologies and a hosted, outsourced cloud-based architecture that enables MNOs to manage all of their core network and service management functions in a single software solution. We believe it is the only single software platform designed to support a capacity of over 10 million mobile subscribers and seamlessly provisioning of 2G/2,5G/3G/4G (LTE) and CDMA standards. While being hosted on the Elephant Talk platform, mobile carriers can significantly reduce capital investments in new hardware, eliminate the use of legacy software and hardware as well as reduce network operating and maintenance costs while benefiting from greatly improved flexibility and the ability to quickly deploy new services. Elephant Talk's ET Software DNA® 2.0 platform is currently providing services to MNOs in four different countries.

1.75 million Iusacell subscribers migrated onto ET's Software DNA® 2.0 Platform to date
MEXICO CITY and OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Elephant Talk Communications Corp. (NYSE MKT: ETAK) ("Elephant Talk" or "the Company"), a global provider of Software Defined Network Architecture (ET Software DNA® 2.0) platforms and cyber security solutions, today announced that it has successfully migrated the next phase of Grupo Iusacell ("Iusacell") existing subscribers in Mexico onto its dedicated platform. Elephant Talk plans further migrations over the next two quarters, as Iusacell completes its transition by rolling out new services for its Mobile Network Operator ("MNO") and Mobile Virtual Network Operator ("MVNO") clients in the Mexican market.
http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnvar/20120917/MM75872LOGO
"With this migration completed we now have approximately 1.75 million Iusacell subscribers migrated onto our platform," commented Steven van der Velden, Chairman and CEO of Elephant Talk. "Based on the first three successful migrations we have completed, we are confident that we will remain on course with our planned migration of approximately five million pre-paid GSM subscribers and almost three million other Iusacell subscribers."
Martin Zuurbier, Chief Technology Officer of Elephant Talk, added, "In close cooperation with Iusacell, we have successfully migrated another group of Iusacell subscribers without a single SIM-module having to be changed. This performance confirms our confidence in completing all migrations as planned."
Elephant Talk's ET Software DNA® 2.0 platform incorporates virtualized software technologies and a hosted, outsourced cloud-based architecture that enables MNOs to manage all of their core network and service management functions in a single software solution. We believe it is the only single software platform designed to support a capacity of over 10 million mobile subscribers and seamlessly provisioning of 2G/2,5G/3G/4G (LTE) and CDMA standards. While being hosted on the Elephant Talk platform, mobile carriers can significantly reduce capital investments in new hardware, eliminate the use of legacy software and hardware as well as reduce network operating and maintenance costs while benefiting from greatly improved flexibility and the ability to quickly deploy new services. Elephant Talk's ET Software DNA® 2.0 platform is currently providing services to MNOs in four different countries.

Big Fish Launches "Panda PandaMonium(TM)" on Mobile Smartphones and Tablets
Free-to-Play mobile game, Panda PandaMonium is a Puzzle Game Loosely Inspired by Mahjong
SEATTLE, Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A strategy puzzle game like no other, Panda PandaMonium(TM) from Big Fish is available today for free on mobile devices. Equal parts adorable Pandas, angry Dragons, hand-crafted levels, and strategic depth - Panda PandaMonium is a game that is accessible to all types of players.
Panda PandaMonium reinvents the challenge of matching tiles and gives players new strategies to pursue. By matching pairs of magic tiles, players crash through obstacles, trigger bonuses and ultimately save cute and loveable pandas from very hungry dragons.
Made by the same award-winning team that brought you Fetch and the Drawn series, Panda PandaMonium was created with an eye for detail. Each element of the game has personality -- rocks frown, ice chomps, sand grimaces and fire celebrates as he burns neighboring tiles. Featuring a star achievement system, Panda PandaMonium challenges players on each level to complete three different objectives. Can you collect 30 leaves while extinguishing 10 Fires in addition to saving the Pandas? Collect enough stars, and players can advance to the next environment.
Panda PandaMonium will have regular updates with new lands, characters, and obstacles to overcome. If players do get stuck on a puzzle, there are a variety of boosts that they can employ to help them out. Plus, up to four daily tile match games help players by giving out free Jade, the in-game currency. With more worlds coming, more hazards in the hopper and many more Pandas to be saved, Panda PandaMonium is an almost unlimited amount of fun!
Panda PandaMonium can be downloaded for free today here, and will be coming to Android in the future.

Riskified Eliminates Chargeback Fees For Online Merchants

Riskified Eliminates Chargeback Fees For Online Merchants
Operational Efficiencies Enable Riskified to Lower the Price for its Flagship Shop Protection Service to Below the Cost of What Merchants Pay for Chargebacks Annually;Riskified Raises $4 Million Series A Round
TEL AVIV, Israel, August 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Riskified [http://www.riskified.com ], a leading online fraud and risk management
solution that reviews, approves and guarantees e-commerce transactions, today announced
that it has lowered the price for its flagship Shop Protection service by 50% to 0.7% per
transaction. With merchants losing an average of 1% of their total sales due to
chargebacks, the new lower price for Riskified's Shop Protection service represents
significant cost savings for most online merchants. In addition, every approved
transaction is backed by Riskified's 100% chargeback guarantee, which shifts the liability
for any chargeback to Riskified and thus eliminates chargeback fees for online merchants.
To encourage new merchants to try Riskified's flagship Shop Protection service, the
company is offering to review, approve and guarantee the first $50,000 in sales for free.
Shop Protection proactively analyzes all of a merchant's online orders, and on average
approves 99% of them - including up to 74% of transactions that might normally be declined
due to possible fraud. Simultaneously, Riskified's global fraud network identifies fraud
patterns and blocks fraudulent transactions originating anywhere in the world. By doing
so, Riskified helps merchants increase conversions and recapture lost revenue, while
decreasing risk and fraud, chargeback fees and other operational costs associated with
manually reviewing borderline transactions.
Since its launch in late 2012, Riskified has signed on more than 1,000 merchants from
over 20 countries for its online risk and fraud solutions, which include its flagship Shop
Protection service, individual transaction review, geographic monitoring, and an on-demand
service that scales up to support internal risk teams during peak sales periods.
Riskified's customers include Viagogo, Reed's Jewelers, SSENSE, and others.
"Riskified's Shop Protection service represents the end of chargebacks for online
merchants," said Eido Gal, founder and CEO of Riskified. "Over the past two years,
technology improvements and operational efficiencies have enabled Riskified to reduce the
price of our flagship service and pass along the saving to our customers. Combined with
Riskified's 100% chargeback guarantee and our ability to recapture lost revenue, the new
lower price for Shop Protection makes e-commerce more cost effective, profitable and
secure."
According to eMarketer
[http://www.emarketer.com/Article/Global-B2C-Ecommerce-Sales-Hit-15-Trillion-This-Year-Driven-by-Growth-Emerging-Markets/1010575 ]
, global B2C e-commerce will hit $1.5 trillion in
2014. Based on past industry trends, Riskified estimates that online merchants could
incorrectly decline $45 billion in sales globally due to the fear of fraud (3% of total
transactions) and potentially lose $15 billion globally to actual fraud (1% of total
transactions) in 2014.
"Having Riskified instantly review, approve, and guarantee orders has really moved the
needle for our business," said Attila Dogan, Head of Revenue Protection and Payments at
Viagogo. "Riskified's 100% chargeback guarantee gives us great peace of mind that our
business is well protected."
In February, Riskified closed a $4 million Series A round from international investors
including Genesis Partners, Founder Collective and Entree Capital, bringing its total
funding to $5.65 million.
About Riskified
Headquartered in Tel Aviv, Riskified is a leading provider of turnkey risk and fraud
solutions for e-commerce merchants. Its proprietary technologies help increase conversions
and recapture lost revenue from declined transactions due to fear of fraud, while
simultaneously protecting merchants from actual fraud from anywhere around the world.
