Mangopay, a modular and flexible payment infrastructure provider that offers 360° fraud prevention for platforms and marketplaces, has appointed Bertrand Dezard as Head of Sales for Fraud. Dezard will drive the growth of Mangopay’s international fraud business worldwide, focusing on Europe and Latin America, as the company expands the client base of its cybersecurity solution.

Bertrand will drive the growth of Mangopay’s fraud prevention offer worldwide. He joins at a period of growth for the company as it scales, expanding its fraud prevention product offering to address the needs of eCommerce businesses, platforms, and the financial services industry.
Commenting on Bertrand’s appointment, Romain Mazeries, CEO of Mangopay, said, “Bertrand brings impressive experience to accelerate the international growth of our fraud prevention offer, which represents a new and exciting proposition for the industry, with cutting-edge innovations and insights. He joins Mangopay at an exciting stage in our journey, and I look forward to working closely with him to keep platforms safe and enable their growth with our award-winning solution.”
Bertrand said, “Mangopay’s modular solution and its deep understanding of the specific needs of marketplaces and platforms sets the company apart. That is why I have followed the business closely since its inception, and I am excited to join during this period of expansion. At Mangopay, we’re constantly working to innovate and evolve our product offering and that includes our anti-fraud solutions. I look forward to working alongside Mangopay’s CEO Romain Mazeries and our talented team of fraud prevention experts to drive the international growth of the group.”
