From Badges to Balance Sheets: De-Risking the High-Value Transactions That Reputation Can't Protect

Sep 18, 2025

From:

3:10 PM

To:

3:40 PM

- Michael Borg, Founder & CEO, Authentica
- Nishil Soni, Founder & CEO, Ritesize
- Saujin Yi, Founder & CEO, LiquidTrust

Your marketplace relies on trust signals like reviews and verified badges, but are they enough for high-value B2B and cross-border transactions? When reputation is the only safeguard, platforms risk significant payment losses and may unknowingly operate as unlicensed escrow agents, creating serious compliance exposure. This hidden liability threatens more than individual transactions—it can impact your entire balance sheet. This session explores a better approach: embedding structural trust directly into your payment system using modern, digital micro-escrow. By providing true payment security, you protect your platform, improve seller cash flow, and unlock a powerful competitive advantage that attracts high-value users.
