Fraud Prevention

Block checkout when the cart contains only the Shipping Protection product.

Settings → Fraud Prevention addresses a specific abuse pattern: shoppers attempting to check out with only the protection product in their cart, which is commonly linked to automated card-testing and other fraudulent activity. Even low-value fraudulent orders can generate chargebacks, payment disputes, and unnecessary risk.

Activating this feature blocks checkout when a cart contains only the protection product. It's implemented through Shopify's native Checkout Rules rather than purely inside the app. The in-app "Activate Fraud Prevention" button and tutorial walk you through the underlying setup, which otherwise involves:

  1. Log in to your Shopify admin.
  2. Go to Settings → Checkout rules.
  3. Click Add rule.
  4. Select Fraud Order Prevention.
  5. Click Save, then Turn on.
