Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureChargeback is an automated chargeback prevention app. It alerts you when a customer initiates a dispute. This allows you to automatically refund the transaction, stopping the chargeback. This protects your Shopify from shutdown, money holds, and fees. We work with almost all payment processors, helping you to maintain smooth operations with a low chargeback rate.
Strict fraud tools get more aggressive during the holidays. They block real shoppers as often as fraudsters, right when order volume peaks. That means lost sales, frustrated buyers, and chargebacks you don't deserve. ClearSale fixes that. Every order gets reviewed using AI and human analysis, so you approve more good customers and stop actual fraud. If a fraudulent order slips through, we cover the chargeback.
