How it sells itself

Gatekeeper protects growing stores from checkout fraud and bot abuse. Suspicious checkouts are stopped before payment. Cart spam, fake accounts, and abusive sessions get caught early on the storefront. Activity logs, analytics, and risk breakdowns show what was blocked, flagged, or monitored, so you are never guessing during an attack.

Storebouncer checks every visit to your store. Spam bots, scrapers, servers, VPNs and Tor are blocked before they load your ad pixels and analytics, so your reports and ad audiences count real shoppers. Google, Bing and other crawlers you allow are verified against their published networks and never blocked.

Key points
  • See every blocked and flagged attempt: activity log, analytics, and map view
  • Stop fraudulent checkouts before payment. Protection runs inside checkout itself
  • Guard your storefront from cart spam, fake accounts, and abusive sessions
  • Block repeat offenders and build custom rules that fit how your store sells
  • Block spam bots, VPNs, servers and Tor before they trigger your ad pixels
  • Refuse card-testing carts at checkout, even ones that skip your store pages
  • Rules by country, region, IP, network, ISP, referrer, page or collection
  • See each visit and why it was blocked, then block or unblock it from the log
