Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureSentryCart checks every new order and flags the ones that look risky, with the reasons behind each. It looks at signals like mismatched billing and shipping locations, disposable emails, large first-time orders, gift-card purchases, and customers you have blocked before. You review the flagged orders and decide whether to hold or fulfill them.
Storefront Sentry was built by merchants for merchants who needed a real way to stop card testing, checkout bots, unwanted traffic, and content theft. It helps you prevent fraud before it becomes an order with Storefront Guard, then uses Risk Rules to automatically hold or cancel risky orders after completion.
