Our History
Community, Collaboration, and Progress
Since 2000, MRC has grown from a small group of merchants focused on payment risk into the leading global membership community for payments and fraud prevention. What began as a shared need to tackle emerging eCommerce challenges has become an international network of merchants, solution providers, and industry experts shaping the future of digital commerce.
Over the years, we’ve championed collaboration across the ecosystem—creating spaces where members can connect, exchange insights, and build strategies that work in the real world. From our first conference to a global portfolio of events and programs spanning six continents, MRC’s story is one of innovation, resilience, and shared purpose.
As we continue to evolve alongside the industry, our mission remains the same: to empower the community with trusted connections, practical knowledge, and the collective voice to drive safer, smarter commerce worldwide.
Experience MRC in Action at Our Global Events
MRC events have been at the heart of our community from the very beginning. Each year, our conferences bring together global leaders in payments, fraud, and risk to learn, share, and move the industry forward.
From long-standing flagship conferences to newer regional gatherings, these events reflect the milestones we’ve reached—and the momentum that continues to build. Wherever we meet, the focus is the same: real conversations, actionable insights, and a community working together to solve what’s next.
