ReliaBid was founded in 2004 with the objective of enhancing the way online business transactions are conducted. As the internet emerged as the world’s fastest-growing marketplace, ReliaBid sought to develop the most innovative eCommerce security and assurance tools—ensuring that merchants and buyers could trade goods and services more securely than even within a brick-and-mortar environment.

The company was initially unveiled to the public at eBay Live! 2005, with its core offerings targeting the online auction industry. As the demand for ReliaBid’s peer-to-peer payment security solutions grew, ReliaBid expanded its service offerings to a variety of other venues and marketplace. Today, ReliaBid core services are fully-scalable for integration into stand-alone eCommerce sites as well as shopping cart applications.

ReliaBid's founders, Mohamed Ramzi Ismail and Jonathan Rosen, launched the company shortly obtaining their graduate degree at the George Washington University's Duques School of Business. Mohamed formerly served on the staff of the World Bank, providing guidance to governments on private sector development and innovation. Jonathan joined ReliaBid from Gartner, where he advised high-profile CIO's in the Executive Programs practice. Both share a lifelong passion for entrepreneurship.
