How it sells itself

The app takes the hassle out of dealing with high-risk orders. As soon as a new order comes in, it’s automatically screened using Shopify’s built-in fraud analysis. If flagged as high-risk, the app steps in — canceling the order, restocking the items, and refunding or voiding the payment if needed. You can also choose to notify the customer about the cancellation.

RiskMate helps Shopify merchants detect risky orders before fulfillment. The app evaluates every new order using configurable risk rules, calculates a risk score, and assigns a clear risk level. When a potential issue is detected, RiskMate automatically adds order tags and creates an internal risk assessment in Shopify.

Key points
  • Fraud Order Defender app auto-cancels high-risk orders to prevent chargebacks.
  • It restocks items immediately after an order is canceled.
  • Payments are refunded or voided without manual steps
  • You can notify customers and admins via email if you choose
  • Automatic order checks with configurable risk rules for every new order
  • Clear risk score and level based on merchant-defined conditions
  • Automatic tags added to orders based on evaluation results
  • Internal order risk assessment visible directly inside Shopify
