Kount (Equifax)

paid · Founded 2007 · cloud

Mature ecommerce + payment fraud platform owned by Equifax — quote-based, mid-market and enterprise.

What it does well

  • Leverages Equifax's extensive consumer identity data for enhanced fraud detection.
  • Provides a large, shared data network from thousands of participating businesses.
  • Offers both supervised and unsupervised machine learning models for risk analysis.

Where it falls short

  • Pricing is not transparent and requires a custom quote, targeting enterprise budgets.
  • No free tier or self-service trial is available for evaluation.
  • May be overly complex for small businesses without a dedicated fraud team.
