Why Every WooCommerce Store Needs Anti-Fraud Protection
Fraud doesn’t just cost money — it damages trust, reputation, and customer confidence. The Anti-Fraud for WooCommerce plugin helps you:
- Save time and money by automatically blocking suspicious orders.
- Reduce risk of chargebacks, card testing, and account takeovers.

Advanced Fraud Detection & Scoring System
Every order is analyzed and assigned a risk score (from 1 to 100). The higher the score, the higher the chance of fraud.
You can view the score, warnings, and related details directly from your WooCommerce admin dashboard.
The plugin automatically takes predefined actions based on your rules — such as holding, canceling, or blacklisting suspicious orders.
For example:
- Automatically cancel the order.
- Place the order on hold for manual review.
- Notify the admin instantly via email.
- Block access to the payment gateway for high-risk users.
You can also whitelist trusted customers, IPs, and payment methods for a seamless checkout experience.
70+ Settings for Complete Control
This plugin gives you full control over how you prevent eCommerce fraud. You can customize your security setup with:
- Flexible Blocking Rules: Block by IP, country, proxy, or email address.
- Velocity Attack Prevention: Stop multiple checkout attempts in real time.
- Behavior-Based Restrictions: Limit transactions by order volume, time of day, or frequency.
- Google reCAPTCHA Integration: Prevent bot-based carding attacks.
- Real-Time Email Alerts: Get notified instantly of suspicious activity.
- Bulk Whitelisting Support: Manage trusted users quickly and efficiently.
You can even customize the “weight” of each risk factor — giving you total flexibility over how your fraud scoring system works.
