Whether it&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.futurestatemedia.com\/en\/woocommerce-vs-shopify-why-choose-shopify-or-woocommerce\/\">Shopify or WooCommerce<\/a>, fraud protection is something YOU need to take action to protect yourself from fraud as a store owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There isn&#8217;t a tremendous amount of information out there about fraud prevention in eCommerce stores like WooCommerce or Shopify. There are Fraud Prevention Plugins for WooCommerce, and Fraud Protection Apps for Shopify, but overall the supporting information around fraud is pretty damn poor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This certainly isn&#8217;t because online fraud isn&#8217;t prevalent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hell, even Ezra Firestone was a victim with BOOM! &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/smartmarketer.com\/how-my-shopify-store-got-scammed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">check out the story here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reason the subject of fraud, fraud prevention and fraud protection probably don&#8217;t appear all that much online is because it&#8217;s simply not a sexy topic that anyone wants to talk about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to that, it&#8217;s not really a topic that many people want to acknowledge and listen to, given the million other things they&#8217;re trying to juggle in their eCommerce business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it&#8217;s Shopify or WooCommerce Fraud Prevention is something you&#8217;re going to have to open your eyes to &#8211; and protecting yourself might not be as difficult as you&#8217;d think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A heads up &#8211; this article is incomplete and a work in progress, so if you&#8217;re here we&#8217;ve provided some links to resources that should be useful whilst setting the scene that WooCommerce Fraud Detection, Protection and Prevention will be an area we&#8217;ll dig into in detail in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WooCommerce Chargebacks Blog Post<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s an article from WooCommerce talking about Chargebacks, but not exclusively about fraud prevention. As with much of their content, it serves a purpose, it&#8217;s from 2018 so a little dated and doesn&#8217;t go into anywhere near an extensive enough level of detail to help you understand what you&#8217;re dealing with specifically when it comes to eCommerce Fraud with WooCommerce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-woocommerce\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/woocommerce.com\/posts\/chargebacks-what-all-woocommerce-stores-should-know\/\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WooCommerce Fraud Protection Plugins<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yith WooCommerce Anti-Fraud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This Anti-Fraud plugin from the team at Yith has the solid reputation of Yith behind it making it an excellent choice to protect your WooCommerce store from Fraudsters<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons aligncenter is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/yithemes.com\/themes\/plugins\/yith-woocommerce-anti-fraud\/?refer_id=1111878\" style=\"border-radius:3px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Get Yith WooCommerce Anti-Fraud<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-plugin-directory\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"50BYljNzqN\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en-gb.wordpress.org\/plugins\/woo-blocker-lite-prevent-fake-orders-and-blacklist-fraud-customers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fraud Prevention For Woocommerce<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Fraud Prevention For Woocommerce&#8221; &#8212; Plugin Directory\" src=\"https:\/\/en-gb.wordpress.org\/plugins\/woo-blocker-lite-prevent-fake-orders-and-blacklist-fraud-customers\/embed\/#?secret=GyEDTrXkw7#?secret=50BYljNzqN\" data-secret=\"50BYljNzqN\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-woocommerce\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"nOkOk1nDWG\"><a href=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\/products\/woocommerce-anti-fraud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WooCommerce Anti-Fraud<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;WooCommerce Anti-Fraud&#8221; &#8212; WooCommerce\" src=\"https:\/\/woocommerce.com\/products\/woocommerce-anti-fraud\/embed\/#?secret=TtsLRWxG0a#?secret=nOkOk1nDWG\" data-secret=\"nOkOk1nDWG\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shopify Fraud Prevention &#8211; Credit Card Chargebacks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re on the Shopify Basic plan and you&#8217;re using an alternative payments provider to Shopify Payments, you&#8217;ll basically be provided a checklist of <a href=\"https:\/\/help.shopify.com\/en\/manual\/orders\/fraud-analysis#fraud-analysis-indicators\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fraud Indicators<\/a> so you can investigate an order.

These recommendations are a more user friendly way of summarising how likely it is a transaction is fraudulent, meaning you can probably perform your manual review of which transactions to investigate more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to be able to automate actions, such as putting high risk transactions on hold so you can review them before you&#8217;re defrauded, you&#8217;ll need a Shopify App.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shopify has their own App &#8211; here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/apps.shopify.com\/fraud-filter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/apps.shopify.com\/fraud-filter<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, there are 79 Apps in the Shopify App store related to Fraud protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes 79!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So whether you&#8217;re running a WooCommerce store or Shopify Store there&#8217;s evidently enough demand for WooCommerce Plugin and Shopify App developers to spend their time coming up with solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s the <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.shopify.com\/search?q=fraud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">list of 79 Fraud Protection Apps<\/a> on the Shopify App store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You may have searched for:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud prevention<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud detection<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce anti-fraud<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud detection plugins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud plugins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce anti-fraud dont change order status<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud analysis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">stop woocommerce anti-fraud from changing order status<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud card testing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">yith woocommerce anti-fraud premium whitelist email address<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">wordpress yith woocommerce anti-fraud premium<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">blocking woocommerce fraud by ip<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">yith woocommerce anti-fraud premium<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud protection<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">woocommerce fraud tool<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">best woocommerce fraud tool<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Preventing fraudulent transactions on any eCommerce platform is absolutely essential, and no eCommerce store software is immune.
