Owl Rock Capital heads up major Signifyd funding round

E-commerce fraud protection specialist, Signifyd, has announced a $205 million Series E funding round led by Owl Rock Capital.

There was also participation by financial services provider FIS and investment management organisations Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP Investments) and Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers.

The investment values the company at $1.34 billion as it looks to expand its Commerce Protection Platform and identity growth globally, across digital shopping and payments.  

“Signifyd is mission critical infrastructure for a growing number of retail’s biggest and best known brands,” says Owl Rock Managing Director Kurt Tenenbaum.

“They are poised to expand their position as the market leader in commerce protection just as rapidly shifting consumer preferences are driving an e-commerce inflection point we didn’t think we’d see for several years.”

“We are excited about what the future holds for the company and are pleased to lead this investment and support the Signifyd team as they enter this next stage of strong growth.” 

"Last year we saw e-commerce sales and influence propelled into 2025. And yet the online checkout experience is stuck in 2015,” comments Signifyd CEO Raj Ramanand.

“With this latest investment, we have the roadmap, the resources and technical talent to enable merchants to push the customer experience to that future state — and to keep pushing it forward for years to come.”
