Atlanta, September 12, 2022 – Featurespace has been named a winner of the 2022 IDC Fintech Rankings Real Results Award for Digital Trust & Stewardship. 

The Real Results Awards are published in conjunction with the most comprehensive vendor ranking in the financial services industry, the annual IDC FinTech Rankings, based on 2021 calendar year revenues attributed to financial institutions.  

Featurespace has also been named in the rankings, which represent the leading hardware, software and service providers to the financial services industry from around the world. 

Now in its 8th year, the IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Awards recognize IT providers that have enabled a genuine, measurable, and future-enabling change at a client financial institution in the worldwide financial services industry. The quantifiable results from Contis – a Banking-as-a-Service platform which utilizes Featurespace’s ARIC™ Risk Hub technology to deliver industry-leading fraud detection rates and well-below industry threshold numbers of chargeback transactions – demonstrated the accuracy and speed with which Contis instantly flag, detect and stop bad actors while allowing genuine customers to transact.  

“As the industry gets back on its feet after years of disruption, the case studies submitted to this year’s IDC FinTech Rankings Real Results Program showed a great return to innovation in every area of the financial services industry,” said Jerry Silva, vice president at IDC Financial Insights. “IDC congratulates the venders that helped financial organizations get back to the business of innovation.” 

The annual IDC FinTech Rankings and Real Results Awards have become an important measure of the health and direction of technology in the industry and the emergence of innovative solutions from new players.
