About Rikko

Building trust in a market used to empty promises

Rikko (RIKKO HK COMPANY LIMITED) is a Hong Kong-headquartered agency providing cross-border ad infrastructure for the ecommerce industry — built on contracts and invoices, not workarounds.

Origins

From what the founding team saw across the industry

Before founding Rikko, the team worked directly in payment operations and ad account management for cross-border ecommerce sellers, and kept noticing the same pattern repeating across almost every provider in the industry:

Creative Intellect // Brainstorm & Intellect
“How do you find the creative ‘big idea’ among a million questions circling the brief, the facts, the insight — inside a Creative environment?”

The world of Creative is an environment of relentless “BRAINSTORM”. Much like making the decisive move among a million possibilities on the board: chess is the ultimate symbol of INTELLECT and strategic discipline.

✕

Selling accounts of unclear origin and calling it an “internal relationship.”

✕

Promising “no bans, no limits” with nothing binding in writing.

✕

Disappearing the moment a platform restricted an account, leaving clients to fend for themselves.

✕

Holding client ad-spend deposits as an opaque “internal credit” with no transparency.

The Rikko Alternative

Rikko was built to do the opposite of every one of those — operating through a real legal entity, real contracts, and a channel where we hold a direct relationship instead of just reselling.

“We built Rikko because sellers scaling across borders deserved infrastructure they could actually trust — documented, compliant, and accountable.”

What we believe

Four principles behind every engagement

01

Transparency

Contracts, invoices and a live cashback dashboard — nothing verbal.

02

Compliance-first

Accounts set up to platform policy, never around it.

03

Direct partnerships

Working directly with Meta, Google, TikTok and AppLovin/AXON, not through a reseller layer.

04

Client-first economics

No advance funding, no holding client money.
