What merchants praise

“This is a great fraud app available on shopify. I have used Nofraud, NS8, and others. This beats all of them, they use simple tools like phone verification, detects VOIP, detects multiple orders, detects duplicate IP, Detects carrier name and many other features. Jason who is the lead, listens to concerns and address them. Thank you”

What merchants complain about

“Useless - £1000 order was not marked as fraud, was 'successfully verified' and a chargeback is open.”
