About Beacon Fraud Protection

We specialize in helping eCommerce merchants detect, reduce, and prevent fraud orders and bad actors while not losing out on legitimate customers (false positives) and to help online merchants increase sales and profit by allowing merchants to customize the Ai assisted fraud protect system to further increase the accuracy rate and to automate fraud checks. Beacon uses and combines three-level of technology using big data, advanced digital verification system (SMS and email), and machine learning.

How does your app work with Shopify?

Beacon is constantly monitoring all customer activities and analyzing for any orders with bad data that looks suspicious for things like VoIP, multiple accounts, or an unusually high amount of spending, and many more.

The system works by ingesting customer information like name, phone number, and other data points and extracts new data that can highlight a risky order. Any bad data detected is displayed through the main data table of Beacon. The longer a merchant has Beacon installed, the more effective the system can be at detecting suspicious activities.

If an additional fraud check is needed, Beacon can send a special and simple text verification message to customers for additional verification checks. Our SMS system is able to extract additional data to better and quickly identify bad-actors and allow the merchants to make better-informed decisions.

App Functionality

  • Real-time (instant) fraud analysis for every single order.
  • Works in combination with Shopify's Fraud Filter app.
  • Set/Customize different fraud-related parameters.
  • Automate customer verification using a sophisticated SMS and email system.
  • Blacklist system. (Global Ban).
  • Whitelist system.
  • Auto cancel known fraud accounts.
  • Automated Payment Capture Control System. (Do not capture payment for high-risk orders)

How will this change the look of my store?

A special verification page is generated when Beacon is installed. This verification page can be found under the template menu with the file name of, "pages.verify.liquid".

How do I get started?

Merchants will be prompt with a simple welcome screen to help understand the app based on merchant business needs.

Useless - £1000 order was not marked as fraud, was 'successfully verified' and a chargeback is open.

Hello, we did a little investigation on the order and it looks like this order was received and processed before you installed Beacon for less than 1 hour. Our system is always monitoring and doing its best to prevent fraud activities and it works best once you are able to learn all the features of the app and are able to fine-tune the fraud system. The verification section of the app is only a small part of the fraud detection process.

Please contact us directly and we'd be happy to go over the order and help you directly,

This service makes going through potentially fraudulent orders so much easier. It tells you exactly what might be wrong with the order and also automates a text verification if an order is flagged by a set amount of factors. You can also have people verify via email. We've been using Beacon for a month now and its the best fraud filter app we have come across. The pricing is beyond reasonable as well.

This is a great fraud app available on shopify. I have used Nofraud, NS8, and others. This beats all of them, they use simple tools like phone verification, detects VOIP, detects multiple orders, detects duplicate IP, Detects carrier name and many other features. Jason who is the lead, listens to concerns and address them. Thank you
