By working with Sift, Nexo will be able to revolutionize its approach to fraud prevention, enhancing measures and ensuring a safer, smoother, quicker, and more reliable experience for the company’s over 6 million users.

Nexo will utilize Sift's industry-leading Payment Protection and Account Defense products, leveraging their advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) technology, and real-time intelligence to provide robust protection against a wide array of account and payment fraud challenges.
