리스크파이드(RSKD) 2026년 2분기 실적 발표 콘퍼런스 콜: 매출 22% 증가, 가이던스 상향

핵심 요약

• 리스키파이드(Riskified)는 2026 회계연도 2분기 매출이 전년 동기 대비 22% 증가한 9,870만 달러를 기록해 4년여 만에 가장 높은 매출 증가율을 나타냈다고 발표했다.
• 비GAAP 기준 총이익은 4,540만 달러로 13% 증가했고, 조정 EBITDA는 390만 달러로 84% 급증했다. 총이익률은 46%를 기록했으며, 이는 신규 가맹점 및 티켓팅 활동 비중이 높아진 점을 반영한다.
• 디지털 금융 매출은 이벤트 계약 및 게임 부문의 신규 가맹점에 힘입어 전년 동기 대비 약 180% 성장했다. 티켓 및 여행 부문은 약 23% 성장했다.
• 다중 제품을 사용하는 가맹점 기반은 전년 동기 대비 약 50% 확대되었으며, 경쟁 수주 성공률은 75% 이상을 유지했다. 처리된 ACH 거래액은 전년 동기 대비 약 19배 수준으로 증가했다.
• 경영진은 연간 매출 가이던스를 4억 달러~4억 1,000만 달러로, 조정 EBITDA 가이던스를 3,300만 달러~3,900만 달러로 상향 조정했다.
• 리스키파이드는 2억 2,360만 달러의 현금, 예금 및 투자 자산을 보유하고 부채는 없는 상태로 분기를 마감했으며, 1,290만 달러의 잉여현금흐름을 창출했다.

주요 재무 데이터

리스키파이드는 2분기 중 평균 4.67달러에 약 1,370만 주를 매입해 총 6,390만 달러를 자사주 매입에 지출했다. 이번 매입으로 전체 발행 주식수가 8% 감소했다. 자사주 매입 프로그램 개시 이후 회사는 3억 5,100만 달러 규모인 약 7,200만 주를 매입하여 발행 주식수를 총 26% 줄이는 데 기여했다.

사업 및 운영 성과

경영진은 성장의 가속화 원인으로 사기 행위의 고도화, 리스키파이드 플랫폼 채택 확대, 신규 고객 전환 강화를 꼽았다. 사기 행위는 디지털 지갑, 카드, ACH, 개인 간 거래(P2P), 토큰화 거래는 물론 환불, 반품, 차징백(구매 취소 요청) 분쟁 영역으로까지 확산되고 있다.

리스키파이드 플랫폼은 공유된 신원 및 네트워크 인텔리전스 계층을 통해 계정, 결제, 정책 및 분쟁 인텔리전스를 결합한다. 경영진은 가맹점들이 여러 단일 솔루션을 통합하는 대신 단일화된 통합 플랫폼을 점점 더 선호하고 있다고 밝혔다.

디지털 금융은 전년 동기 대비 약 180% 급증하며 가장 빠른 성장세를 보인 부문이었다. 이러한 성장은 이벤트 계약 및 게임 부문 가맹점의 유입과 기존 고객 대상 업셀링(상위 제품 판매)에 힘입은 것이다. 티켓 및 여행은 1분기 18%에서 가속화되어 약 23% 증가했다. 패션 및 명품 부문은 4% 성장했다.

월드컵과 NBA 파이널을 포함한 라이브 스포츠 경기가 티켓팅, 이벤트 계약, 게임 거래량을 뒷받침했다. 경영진은 미국이 가장 큰 기여를 하고 아시아태평양(APAC) 지역 전반에 걸쳐 강력한 모멘텀이 유지되면서 수주 파이프라인이 견조하게 유지되고 있다고 설명했다.

지역별 청구액(Billings) 성장은 전반적으로 고르게 나타났다:

• 미국: 전년 동기 대비 약 38% 증가
• 아시아태평양(APAC): 약 42% 증가
• 기타 미주 지역: 약 21% 증가
• 인도: 여행 부문의 높은 기저효과 대비 약 3% 증가

4개 모든 지역에서 신규 고객이 추가되었으며, 상위 10개 신규 고객 중 5개는 미국 외 지역에 본사를 두고 있다. 리스키파이드의 다중 제품 이용 가맹점 기반은 약 50% 성장하여 추가 업셀링 및 고객 유지 기회를 뒷받침했다.

회사의 AI 어시스턴트인 아리아(ARIA)는 플랫폼 전반에서 채택률을 계속 높여가고 있다. ARIA는 부정 결제 및 리스크 관리 팀이 의심 활동을 조사하고 동향을 파악해 더 신속하게 대응하도록 돕는다. 리스키파이드는 신원 인텔리전스를 결제 단계 너머 고객 서비스, 즉시 환불, 동적 고객 리스크 프로필 영역으로 확장하고 있다.

경영진 실적 전망(가이던스)

경영진은 3분기 총이익 증가율이 2분기의 13% 수준과 비슷할 것으로 예상하고 있다. 티켓 및 여행, 디지털 금융, 패션 및 명품 부문이 연간 청구액의 약 80%를 차지할 것으로 전망된다. 디지털 금융은 2026년 잔여 기간 동안 회사 평균보다 훨씬 빠른 속도로 성장할 것으로 예상된다.

회사는 가이던스 범위 내의 실제 결과가 신규 가맹점 출범 및 업셀링의 시기와 본격화 속도, 가맹점 유지율, 그리고 거시경제 환경 전반에 따라 달라질 것이라고 밝혔다.

리스크 및 주요 관전 포인트

신규 가맹점은 일반적으로 낮은 마진으로 시작해 시간이 지나면서 개선되기 때문에 총이익률이 감소했다. 상대적으로 총이익률이 낮은 티켓팅 부문의 기여도가 높아진 점도 해당 분기의 구성 비율에 영향을 미쳤다.

경영진은 2분기의 높아진 매출 테이크 레이트(수수료율)를 신규 사업의 리스크 프로필에 따른 결과로 해석했다. 하반기에도 총거래액(GMV)과 매출 증가율 간의 격차가 지속되겠지만, 2분기보다는 그 격차가 줄어들 가능성이 있다고 예상했다.

환율 변동성 역시 추가적인 비용 고려 요소로 남아 있다. 경영진은 주로 이스라엘 세켈화의 가치 상승으로 인해 고정환율 기준으로는 비GAAP 영업비용이 410만 달러 더 낮았을 것이라고 밝혔다.

GAAP 기준 순손실은 이자수익 감소와 기타 비용 증가의 영향도 받았으며, 기타 비용의 증가 원인은 주로 환율 변동과 연관되어 있었다.

애널리스트 Q&A 주요 내용

경영진은 2분기가 플랫폼 확장, 사기 수법의 고도화, 수주 파이프라인 전환이 맞물린 시점이었다고 설명했다. 신규 고객 확보 활동은 전 지역과 카테고리에 걸쳐 가속화되었고, 업셀링 역시 견조한 수준을 유지했다. 리스키파이드는 신규 카테고리 및 지역이 초기에는 높은 CPV 비율로 시작하지만, 가맹점 코호트가 성숙해짐에 따라 개선될 것으로 예상하고 있다.

신원 인텔리전스와 관련해 경영진은 해당 제품이 단순한 부정 결제 방지 이상의 역할을 지원할 수 있다고 언급했다. 잠재적 응용 분야로는 즉시 환불, 차별화된 고객 서비스, 신뢰할 수 있는 신원에 대한 거래 또는 송금 한도 증대 등이 꼽힌다.

마케타(Marqeta)와의 파트너십에 대해 리스키파이드는 마케타가 카드를 발급하거나 처리할 때 자사의 리스크 데이터가 가맹점의 승인율을 높이는 데 도움이 될 수 있다고 밝혔다. 리스키파이드는 별도의 매출 스트림을 만들기보다는 경쟁 우위 강화, 높은 가맹점 수주율, 고객 유지율 개선을 통해 이번 파트너십을 간접적으로 수익화할 것으로 예상하고 있다.

또한 경영진은 회사의 성장 기회에 대한 재투자와 균형을 맞추면서, 적은 자원으로 더 많은 성과를 내기 위한 AI 기능 활용을 포함하여 운영 효율성에 집중하겠다는 뜻을 재확인했다.

Eido Gal

Thanks, Stefan, and hello, everyone. Before I begin, let me welcome and introduce Stefan Schulstein as our new Head of Investor Relations. Stefan is an experienced Investor Relations executive, and his primary focus will be on fostering strong relationships across the investment community as we continue to drive shareholder value. I am very pleased with our Q2 results, where we delivered the strongest revenue growth in over 4 years. Revenue grew 22% year-over-year to $98.7 million. Non-GAAP gross profit grew 13% to $45.4 million and adjusted EBITDA increased 84% to $3.9 million. Given this momentum, we're once again raising our full year outlook for revenue and adjusted EBITDA. I want to thank our team for driving these results for our clients and shareholders.

We believe this accelerated growth is a result of an increasingly complex fraud environment, driving more demand to our expanded platform. Allow me to elaborate. Fraud risk for our merchants continues to grow. It's getting more sophisticated and moving faster, and we believe agentic tools are part of what's accelerating that. Bad actors are creating fake identities that sign up, hijacking real accounts and driving fraudulent activity across digital wallets, cards, ACH, peer-to-peer transactions, tokenized transactions and 3D secure flows. And it's not limited to checkout as the same activity shows up in refund and return of use, chargeback disputes and friendly fraud. Across that large and increasingly complex surface, we're seeing loss rates rise industry-wide. These complexities are leading merchants to increasingly look for more effective ways to manage fraud while maintaining a leading customer experience.

At the same time, merchants are increasingly frustrated stitching together multiple point solutions. Know Your Customer screening, identity resolution, account security, transactional fraud screening, shipping and returns abuse detection and dispute representment are all part of the stack merchants need to manage, and we hear a clear preference for a single platform and a platform approach isn't just simple. We believe it performs better because the signal from one part of the transaction life cycle strengthens the defense in every other part. That's the flywheel we've talked about before.

Turning to our platform. Our risk intelligence platform applies insights from our global merchant network, identity graph and AI capabilities across the e-commerce journey from account creation and login through checkout to post-purchase refunds, returns and disputes. The platform brings together account, checkout, policy and dispute intelligence, all powered by a shared network intelligence and identity layer. We believe that the recent improvements that have been driving the most demand are expanded checkout fraud coverage. As noncard payment methods continue to grow and proliferate, merchants are increasingly looking to us to create the underlying trust mechanism that is missing in. It is a large undertaking, but once done successfully, we believe meaningfully addresses the fundamental trust issue that hurts adoption of these alternative payment methods.

For example, with ACH, we have built a risk layer that enables instant payouts, closing some of the gaps with credit cards, allowing merchants to leverage a low-cost funding instrument with substantially reduced risk. And as merchants continue to offer alternative ways to pay, our platform allows them to meet customers where they are. And we believe we are well positioned to build and replicate this trust layer for noncard payments in a way that creates value for both our merchants and Riskified. The dollar value of ACH transactions we processed in the quarter was approximately 19x the value of transactions processed in the second quarter of the prior year. Furthermore, merchants are increasingly using Riskified's identity intelligence beyond checkout to improve the customer experience across the transaction life cycle.

We had shared last quarter that we are enabling real-time risk scoring inside customer service workflows, especially as customer service evolves towards a mix of human and conversational AI agents. Additionally, we have now helped one of our newer merchants create a dynamic customer risk profile, which allows safer customers to transact faster and at higher dollar amounts. We believe we are well positioned to deliver additional value to our merchants as our identity database has billions of nodes across the transaction life cycle. Our AI assistant, ARIA, continued to gain traction this quarter. We have embedded ARIA across our wider platform, giving fraud and risk teams a highly effective tool that helps them investigate activity, understand emerging trends and take action more quickly.

This helps our merchants optimize workflow and gain additional insights into their customers. Feedback from our merchants has been overwhelmingly positive. These results are enabled by using our differentiated data assets, which we believe makes it more powerful than other solutions that don't have access to our underlying data. Our multiproduct merchant base grew approximately 50% year-over-year. That consistency is the clearest evidence that this platform strategy is working. Merchants aren't buying one tool. They're expanding into more of the network, which allows for additional upsell opportunities and drives retention. On to new business momentum. The 2 trends I just discussed, more complex fraud and continued improvements in our platform drove a significant acceleration of new business this quarter. This new business was diversified across geographies and across both new and existing merchant categories.

New logo acquisition was a significant contributor this quarter. We added new logos across all 4 regions with 5 of our top 10 headquartered outside the United States, spanning 5 categories. We're encouraged by the pace at which we continue to add merchants to the platform, which builds towards future expansion opportunities. Upsell activity within our existing merchant base was also healthy this quarter, reinforcing the durability of our platform as merchants continue to expand their use of our products. Our pipeline is robust with the U.S. still the largest contributor and strong momentum across APAC. From an industry perspective, we saw healthy activity within travel, payments and fashion, and a particularly strong pace of conversion as many of the opportunities we discussed last quarter converted into new business. Our competitive win rates remained above 75% in the second quarter, further evidence of the differentiation of our platform relative to the alternatives that merchants evaluate.

A notable highlight this quarter with live sports, a dense global events calendar, which included the World Cup and the NBA finals drove elevated transaction volume across 2 connected parts of our business. In tickets, our established base benefited directly from this volume, reinforcing what we believe is the vertical's role as a durable growth driver. In our money transfer and payments category, which we have renamed digital finance to reflect the broader merchant category, strong momentum from the same dynamic with particular strength in event contracts and gaming. We are particularly pleased with our expansion into newer categories within digital finance, enabled by our platform innovation.

Putting it all together, this was a quarter that reflects both the strength of the market opportunity in front of us and our team's execution in capturing it. Fraud keeps growing more complex and merchants are converging on the unified platform we've spent years building. That combination is showing up in our results, strong revenue growth, accelerating new business and a multiproduct base that keeps deepening. It's why we're raising our outlook for the second time this year. We enter the second half with the platform, the pipeline and the momentum to keep delivering for our merchants and our shareholders.

I'll now turn it over to Aglika for a deeper look at our financial results.

Aglika Dotcheva

Thank you, Aglika, and everyone, for joining today's call. Unless otherwise noted, this discussion will reference non-GAAP financial measures. We have provided a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures in our earnings release. Our GMV for the second quarter was $41.3 million, reflecting a 13% increase year-over-year. We achieved second quarter revenue of $98.7 million, up 22% year-over-year, an acceleration from 7% growth in the first quarter and the strongest year-over-year growth in more than 4 years. Our GMV and revenue growth during this quarter was primarily driven by continued new merchants and upsell activity as merchants continue to recognize the value of our platform provides. Growth in the second quarter was broad-based across all of our categories, led by digital finance and tickets and travel.

Our digital finance category grew approximately 180% year-over-year, driven primarily by the ramp of multiple new merchants onboarded in the quarter to the event contracts and gaming of vertical with upsell activity across our existing base contributing as well. Tickets and travel grew approximately 23% year-over-year, an acceleration from 18% in the first quarter. Tickets was the primary driver with growth accelerating meaningfully as same-store sales momentum strengthened across our largest ticketing merchants and travel continued to deliver growth even with a tough year-over-year comparison. Our fashion and luxury vertical grew 4% year-over-year, driven by new and upsell activity as well as same-store performance.

Looking ahead, we continue to expect our tickets and travel, digital finance and fashion and luxury categories to collectively approximate 80% of total billings for the year, with digital finance to significantly exceed the company's average growth rate throughout the remainder of 2026. Turning to our regional performance. Billings grew across all regions during the second quarter. The United States, our largest region, grew approximately 38% year-over-year, up from 10% in the first quarter, reflecting continued strength in tickets and the addition of new merchants in digital finance. APAC grew approximately 42% in Q2. We continue to see healthy underlying demand in the region and expect more balanced growth as the year progresses. Other Americas grew approximately 21% year-over-year, up from 11% in the first quarter, primarily driven by new business activity, and India delivered approximately 3% growth against a strong prior year comparable period in the travel vertical. We believe that our continued growth across geographies is a testament to the success of our global expansion strategy.

Our gross profit for the second quarter was $45.4 million, reflecting a 13% increase year-over-year. The growth was primarily driven by the contribution of new business onboarded led by our digital finance category, where we continue to expand into new verticals. This was further supported by strong same-store activity in our tickets of vertical, which benefited from elevated live sports during the quarter. Our gross margin in the second quarter was 46%, attributable to ramping up new merchants, which typically begin at lower margins and improve over time. Performance across our existing merchant base remained healthy, resulting from ongoing enhancements to our core machine learning models. As a result of our second quarter performance, we're now raising our expected full year gross profit growth to a range of 11% to 14% or 12.5% at the midpoint. We expect gross profit growth in the third quarter to be similar to the growth in the second quarter.

Moving to operating expenses. Non-GAAP operating expenses totaled $41.5 million for the quarter or 42% of revenue compared to 47% in Q2 of 2025, reflecting sustained cost discipline as our business scales. On a constant currency basis, OpEx would have been $4.1 million lower or approximately 39% of revenue, primarily driven by the continued appreciation of the Israeli shekel. We continue to expect quarterly non-GAAP operating expenses to range between $42 million and $43 million. We delivered adjusted EBITDA of $3.9 million, representing an 84% increase compared to $2.1 million in Q2 of 2025 and demonstrating the efficiency of our scaling cost structure. On a GAAP basis, second quarter net loss improved 22% year-over-year to a loss of $9.1 million compared to a loss of $11.6 million in Q2 of 2025. GAAP net loss was impacted by a decline in interest income and increase in other expense, the latter primarily tied to foreign currency fluctuations.

Moving to the balance sheet. We ended the second quarter with approximately $223.6 million of cash, deposits and investments and continue to carry 0 debt. In addition, we continue to maintain a healthy cash flow model. In the second quarter, we achieved free cash flow of $12.9 million. We expect to exceed $40 million of positive free cash flow in 2026. During Q2 of 2026, we repurchased approximately 13.7 million shares at an average price per share of $4.67 for total consideration of $63.9 million, which contributed to a reduction of 8% in total shares outstanding. From the inception of our buyback program through the end of Q2, we have repurchased approximately 72 million shares for a total of $351 million, which helped contribute to a 26% reduction in total shares outstanding over that period.

We believe that our strong balance sheet and liquidity position are strategic assets that provide us with the flexibility to navigate a range of operating environments. We intend to remain disciplined and thoughtful in how we deploy capital to create long-term shareholder value.

Now turning to our outlook. As a result of our continued execution, we're raising the full year guidance range across both revenue and adjusted EBITDA. We now anticipate full year revenue to be between $400 million and $410 million, or $405 million to the midpoint, reflecting the outperformance of our second quarter results and increased visibility supported by early execution and elevated transaction volume from live events. We expect third quarter revenue growth of approximately 27%. We currently expect adjusted EBITDA to be between $33 million and $39 million or $36 million to the midpoint, up from our prior range of $28 million to $34 million, representing a margin of approximately 9% at the midpoint, up from 8% implied in our prior guidance.

The primary factors that may determine where we fall within each range are consistent with what we shared last quarter. The timing and ramping of new merchant go-lives and existing merchant upsells, our success in retaining our merchants and the broader macro environment. We're pleased with the strength of our second quarter results. Revenue growth accelerated to its fastest pace in more than 4 years and profitability continued to expand alongside it. We generated meaningful free cash flow while continuing to return capital to shareholders through our buyback program, and we raised our full year guidance for both revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the second time this year. With a strong balance sheet, 0 debt and a favorable market environment, we're well positioned to keep executing through the second half.

Operator, we're ready to take the first question.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] And our first question comes from Ryan Tomasello with KBW.

질의응답

Ryan Tomasello

Congrats on the solid quarter. I guess, clearly, it sounds like the increasingly complex fraud environment is driving really solid demand for the business. Maybe just to put a finer point on that, would you describe the momentum you're seeing on the new logo front as a steady continuation of the trends you've already been observing over the last several quarters? Or did this last quarter and the first half of the year represent a more notable inflection in the pipeline maybe as AI proliferation starts to hit a more critical mass? And then on the flip side of that, if you could just talk about your confidence in Riskified's ability to continue to maintain solid CPV ratios just as the fraud you're insuring becomes more complex here.

Eido Gal

Ryan, sure. Happy to take that. I think it's a convergence of a few factors. So we've really spent the past few quarters expanding the product platform in a way that solves some of the newer fraud MOs and kind of creates more value, I would say, globally and across a multitude of categories. If you think some of the things we've done around identity and leveraging that to create kind of smarter and more customized flow. Some of the work on accounts, everything around policy, the multi-payment method duality at checkout fraud. So you have this expanding and unique platform on the one hand. And then on the other hand, you do have an increase in the fraud environment, possibly related to agentic tools where the sophistication and the velocity is kind of clearly increasing.

And while we have had positive momentum over the past few quarters, and we've called it out, I think this quarter, definitely kind of everything clicked. And you can see that in the numbers and the pipeline that we've been building, we were able to convert. We were able to convert it relatively quickly, saw good expansion globally, saw good upsell opportunity, saw a lot of new logos leading to some of those future upsells. So I do think some kind of fundamental issues and kind of just all aligning to good timing right now. To the second part of your question, yes, we continue to feel confident about our ability to solve the problems of fraud and definitely more so than any single individual merchant can. I think that's one of the unique value points. And we'll think we'll continue to see that newer categories and newer geographies can start at higher CPV, but will continue to improve over time, similarly to prior cohorts.

Ryan Tomasello

And then maybe one for Aglika on the implied take rate -- revenue take rate on GMV in the quarter that, I think, drove some strong outperformance to street models since GMV growth was only slightly ahead of, I think, where folks were modeling. Maybe if you could just help us understand the drivers there and how we should think about the trajectory of GMV versus take rates in the back half of the year, if there's any mix or seasoning dynamics to call out on the take rate? And then also on gross margins, I think those were down decently year-over-year, I assume, on mix dynamics. But if you can also just talk about how we should think through the trends around gross margin into the back half?

Aglika Dotcheva

Thank you for the questions, Ryan. So on the take rate, I always like to say that we look at this as an output of the business. So it's not something that at any point in time, it can fluctuate. But the way -- specifically for this quarter, it's really a function of the higher risk profile of the new business that we added. And I do see it in terms of the quarter mostly is a timing effect as we continue to add more merchants and diversify and add more business, the take rates will potentially kind of like continue to fluctuate, but maybe slightly lower than what we see this quarter. So why I do expect GMV and revenue growth to diverge for the rest of the year, maybe like at a slightly lower spread than what we sell. Again, this is an output of the model. And in any given quarter, the dynamics of the business, the different kind of growth existing merchants, the upsell and new logo opportunities can drive slightly different results. And then on your second question.

Eido Gal

That was on gross margins.

Aglika Dotcheva

The gross margin, of course. So I'm very excited about the market share gain this quarter. It's very exciting to be able to accelerate our revenue growth and also kind of to add nicely on the gross profit growth. And this is the way we drive the business. This is kind of like the main KPIs. And when I think about the gross margin on any given quarter, it can fluctuate depending on the mix shift, which we did see this quarter with some of the kind of more activity in the ticketing space, which tends to have a slightly lower gross margin and also significantly higher weight from new business. But it's more of a mix shift in the quarter. And as Eido kind of shared on the CDB, we've seen some new business just come at a lower gross margin initially, but there's nothing structural to that. We do expect all cohorts to kind of improve over time.

Operator

Our next question comes from Terry Tillman with Truist.

Connor Passarella

This is Connor Passarella on for Terry. Congrats on the strong results this quarter. Maybe just to start, you called out merchants increasingly using Riskified identity intelligence beyond the checkout and across the transaction life cycle. Could you maybe just give us a sense of where you're seeing the strongest demand today and whether you're starting to see intelligence -- identity intelligence open up entirely new budgets or buyers within customers beyond just the traditional fraud organization?

Eido Gal

I think one of the more interesting things about leveraging identity is you're able to leverage your risk knowledge to create a better experience for the good customers, right? So kind of the smartest and most forward-thinking merchants are not just saying, hey, how can we block fraud, they're kind of saying, hey, how can we leverage this understanding about who the customer really is and provide them a better checkout or shopping experience. And that could be anything from how do we create an instant refund instead of waiting for this package to be delivered? How do we make sure that all our systems kind of support systems, CRM systems understand who this identity is so that as we interact with them. We can provide them a white glove service if they deserve it.

How can we go from a position where we don't really know who this new customer is that signing up to actually understanding it's a really important relationship for us and maybe the limits or the transfers or others restrictions that are set on the account can be set differently based on the identity. So we definitely think that's expanding the conversation and really putting people in a position where they understand a great risk tool is not just about blocking fraud, but it's creating a better experience based on the understanding of where fraud happens.

Connor Passarella

And then maybe just as a follow-up, as revenue growth has accelerated, you also raised the adjusted EBITDA guidance. Just does the performance this quarter change anything on how you think about the trade-off between reinvesting behind the stronger growth opportunity and allowing incremental revenue to flow through to margins?

Eido Gal

Look, right now, I think internally, we're still focused on efficiency and making sure that we're able to leverage AI capabilities to kind of drive more with less. Obviously, we're going to balance that with the large opportunity ahead of us. And we're happy we were able to execute on both fronts at the same time.

Operator

Our next question comes from Cris Kennedy with William Blair.

Cristopher Kennedy

You talked about some of the macro tailwinds in the business and some of the strong upsell activity. Can you just give us your latest thoughts on the expectations for net dollar retention and your visibility into that metric going forward?

Aglika Dotcheva

Thank you for the question. So, our expectations for net dollar retention remains around 105%, no change from what we had before. Specifically for this quarter, we saw very strong tailwinds coming from the ticketing space, and it drove a nice kind of growth in this area. At the same time, we saw kind of travel while continue to grow a little bit softer than what we saw earlier in the year. And all in all, I would say that the majority of the growth at this point is kind of being driven by new business, and that's driving like the higher growth rate that we guided to.

Cristopher Kennedy

And then can you just give us an update on the expectations from the revenue contribution from newer products as you extend beyond chargeback guarantee?

Aglika Dotcheva

As we currently kind of project, we're still in the ballpark that we shared earlier in the year. There's no change in that as well. And we're just very happy with the continued addition of new merchants and that are continuing to kind of grow and using more than one product.

[Operator Instructions] Our next question comes from Timothy Chiodo with UBS.

Timothy Chiodo

I want to talk a little bit more on the Marqeta partnership that you recently announced. This is a good example of Riskified's technology working on the issuer side. I was hoping you could talk a little bit about, number one, the mechanics associated with this and how the technology helps the issuing banks. And then number two, the mechanics or how the revenue model might work or if we should think about this as more of a distribution channel, if there's a rev share, any of those kind of mechanics would be appreciated.

Eido Gal

Tim, I'll take that. Thanks for the question. When we talk to merchants, they increasingly focus on what we call the post-authorization approval, right? You can either look at approval rates before you send the payment through the authorization stream or afterwards. And obviously, you have the merchant, the transaction, the initial risk decision by a vendor like us, and then it needs to go through the entire payment chain and funnel. And throughout that entire payment chain and funnel, there are various points where the transaction can be blocked and it can be blocked because someone enters the wrong CPV code. It can be blocked because there's not enough funds in the account or it can be blocked because someone further upstream from Riskified and the merchant decides that this transaction might be fraudulent or higher risk.

Because we really see our solution, our focus is on maximizing end-to-end conversion for our clients, we really try to think, hey, so what other avenues do we have? And it's not just about being the most accurate at identifying fraud for the merchant, it's also helping other partners in the payment ecosystem make smarter decisions. So, the relationship with Marqeta provides us an ability to share data and risk information in a way that allows them to increase rates on behalf of our merchants, right? So basically, if the card was issued by Marqeta or the processor there, we would expect by several percentage points higher off rates.

The value that creates for Riskified is in kind of the competitive situations where we come to new merchants, it helps create a more differentiated offering, right? It's not just about the multiproduct when we talk about the unique use cases like policy or like the identity we talked about, it also allows us to show them that on the actual offering that obviously, they care about very much, we can create a differentiated approval expectation through these types of partnerships. So, we monetize it directly through the merchant by increasing win rates and having better retention there.

Operator

Thank you. I would now like to turn the call back over to Eido Gal for any closing remarks.

Eido Gal

Thank you, everyone. We're really excited about the momentum in the business, and we look forward to updating you on the quarters ahead.

Operator

Thank you. This concludes the conference. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
