Mangopay, a Paris-based global payments firm, has hired a new Head of Sales for Fraud in an effort to boost its anti-fraud kit. Bertrand Dezard will now look to grow the company’s international fraud business worldwide, with a focus on Europe and Latin America, as the company expands the client base of its cybersecurity solution.
Most recently, Dezard managed the commercial organization at Ravelin, a business specializing in fraud detection. He previously held senior positions at Payplug, Braintree, and Visa Europe.
Mangopay acquired Nethone in 2023, a fraud detection and prevention specialist, to strengthen its offering to clients. Fraud in financial services has become ubiquitous as financial services have migrated to the internet.
Romain Mazeries, CEO of Mangopay, said Dezard is joining Mangopay at an exciting stage in their journey.
Mangopay stated that it will boost its fraud prevention product offering to address the needs of eCommerce businesses, platforms, and the financial services industry.
