FAQ

RankShield — frequently asked questions.

What is RankShield on Shopify?
RankShield, officially listed on the Shopify App Store as RankShield: Fraud & Ad Shield, is a Shopify app in the Security - Other category. RankShield protects DTC brands from ad click-fraud, card-testing, bots, and abuse. It ties every paid click to real on-store behavior and flags invalid clicks so you can exclude them from your ad accounts. It detects card-testing floods and can tag, hold, or cancel fraudulent orders. It also catches denial-of-inventory bots, promo and gift-card abuse, and chargeback risk. Enforcement defaults to monitor and never blocks a genuine customer. We store only salted hashes, never raw customer data.

Open the RankShield listing in the Shopify App Store at apps.shopify.com/rankshield, choose "Add app," and complete the Shopify install flow. After installation, you can configure RankShield from your Shopify admin under Apps.

Methodology

Where the numbers come from.

Ratings, review counts, pricing tiers, “Built for Shopify”, launch date, and category memberships come from the live Shopify App Store listing — refreshed daily by Ongoing.AI’s crawler. The review-count trajectory is the diff between today’s snapshot and snapshots from 7 and 28 days ago. Topic counts and sentiment come from the review corpus, topic-tagged with Claude. Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated .
