MRC Dublin 2026
Merchant Risk Council
A 3-day, members-only payments and fraud-prevention conference held at Clayton Hotel, Dublin, featuring expert-led panels, workshops, and high-trust networking for merchants, PSPs, and the wider eCommerce risk ecosystem.

MRC Dublin 2026 is a three-day, paid, members-only conference hosted in Dublin, Ireland, at the Clayton Hotel Burlington Road. Designed for professionals working in payments, fraud prevention, and risk, it’s positioned as a high-trust environment where real-world challenges can be discussed openly—without the usual “conference gloss.”
Expect an agenda built around peer-driven learning, expert-led discussions, and hands-on workshops, with a strong emphasis on what’s changing right now across fraud, risk, and payments.
The content spotlights practical themes like AI, identity, chargebacks, authentication, regulation, and emerging fraud models, while still leaving room for the kind of candid, operator-to-operator conversations that help teams make smarter decisions back at work.
If you attend, you will:
- Learn actionable strategies for improving fraud detection and payment security through expert insights and peer discussions.
- Stay ahead of industry shifts, including evolving regulations and new authentication technologies that impact approvals, losses, and customer trust.
- Pressure-test your approach to fast-moving topics like AI-driven fraud patterns, identity risk, and modern chargeback management.
- Get direct perspective from leaders across merchants, PSPs, card networks, law enforcement, and solution providers—helping you see problems from every angle.
- Build meaningful connections in a focused setting designed for genuine conversations (not just quick handshakes).
- Bring back clearer next steps you can apply to your payments and fraud roadmap—especially if you support eCommerce teams navigating risk at scale.
This event is best suited to people who need both strategic signal and practical takeaways—and who value learning in a trusted community rather than a massive expo-style format.
