Georgi Trichkov is an experienced risk and fraud specialist with a strong background in managing complex merchant portfolios across the global payments ecosystem.

Before joining AltoPay, Georgi worked in risk management roles at Nuvei and CatalystPay, where he gained hands-on expertise in fraud prevention, chargeback analysis, and high-risk merchant oversight. His legal background — including a master’s degree in law — enables him to navigate regulatory frameworks with precision and apply a structured, compliance-driven approach to risk management.

At AltoPay, Georgi leads the company’s risk operations and is responsible for overseeing the daily monitoring of merchant performance across multiple acquirers and payment platforms. He is the primary architect behind AltoPay’s internal risk procedures — processes he created and continually refines to ensure accuracy, efficiency, and full alignment with industry and scheme requirements.

He specializes in early-stage risk detection, BIN-level analytics, and building scalable workflows that help merchants stay compliant with card scheme monitoring frameworks, including Visa’s VAMP structure. Georgi collaborates closely with merchants, acquirers, and internal teams to resolve issues quickly, prevent losses, and drive operational transparency.

Georgi’s approach blends analytical discipline with proactive communication. He believes that strong risk management comes from identifying trends before they escalate, fostering trust with partners, and ensuring that every merchant receives clear, actionable insights.

Grounded in accuracy, collaboration, and continuous improvement, Georgi is committed to elevating AltoPay’s risk operations and supporting the long-term success of the company’s global merchant portfolio.
