Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureMost fraud apps give you a risk score, a guess. ApexGuard verifies. On orders Shopify flags, plus any orders you choose. It shows what's risky and what's safe, then verifies the buyer for a clear answer: genuine or not? The strongest check confirms a code from the customer's bank statement that only the true cardholder can give, with no friction, and it's only one of several verifications we offer.
Stop fraud before it ships. SignalWall scores every incoming order in real time — validating the customer's email AND their IP address — and tags risky orders right in your Shopify admin. Install in under 5 minutes. No code required. Most fraud tools only look at the IP.
