What merchants think

Feedback submitted

Merchants highly recommend this app for its effective fraud and bot traffic filtering, which significantly reduces chargebacks and enhances security. It's easy to set up and use, with customizable security options like country and IP blocking. The app also prevents unauthorized content copying and provides detailed visitor analytics. Merchants praise the responsive and knowledgeable customer support team.

They just want your money. I downloaded this app and submitted a help desk ticket to figure out how it could solve my problem. I was told to get the enterprise subscription to block checkout. The problem is not that deep and that was the best they could do. Deleting the app

Hi,

We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment with the Blockify Fraud Blocker app.

To clarify, the Fraud Blocker app is designed to protect your store from the moment a visitor accesses it and to prevent high-risk customers from placing orders. It does not directly block checkout, which is why our support team recommended the Blockify Checkout Rules app as a better fit for your specific needs.

We understand that the upgrade suggestion in the Fraud Blocker app may not have matched your expectations, but our customer support team’s intention was to understand your requirements and guide you toward the most suitable solution. Since it seemed you did not wish to continue using the Blockify Fraud Blocker, we referred you to the Checkout Rules app, which is specifically designed to manage checkout-related blocking and restrictions.

We have already reached out to you privately to provide further assistance. Please check your email and reply to us, or feel free to share more details with us directly at support@omegatheme.com — we’d really love to hear from you.

I cannot stress enough how abysmal the "help" for this app has been. I tried it once, it didn't block my bot traffic, I reached out for help and was just gaslit. I uninstalled and left a review. Blockify reached out to ask for another chance and, I tried again. Once again, after following their instructions, the app didn't work correctly. It's either blocking real potential customers/non-bot traffic with low risk scores or allowing almost everyone. When I tried "help" again, telling them I had over 23 visitors to my website from Hong Kong, but, didn't see the visitors on Blockify logs, I was told to block all of Hong Kong. What? No. The next suggestion was to upgrade to the Enterprise plan and block the Ips of fraudeulent orders. What? Again, no. Fraudulent orders is not the problem. Not getting solutions for the actual problems, however, is my main problem with this app, rendering it completely useless to me. And, now, days of wasted time.

I got this app specifically for our increasing bot traffic. The reviews looked amazing so I installed it. On the 5th day I still got bot traffic and started cross-referencing bot orders vs activity log on this app and they didn't even show up. What happened next completely stunned me.

Their support team actually ADMITTED IT DIDN'T WORK!!! Here's the message from them:

"Hi there,

This is Joyce from the Blockify support team..
Thanks again for your patience while we looked into the orders you mentioned.
After checking with our technical team, we found that the app still receives and processes most visitor data as usual. However, in rare cases, it’s possible that:
The buyer went directly to the checkout page, bypassing the storefront, which prevents our app from capturing the initial IP and browsing session.
The buyer was using tools (like VPNs, proxies, or privacy-focused browsers) that changed their IP address during the journey — for example, from landing on the store to completing the checkout. This can result in the session being incomplete or invisible in the Visitor Analytics.
We totally understand how frustrating this may be, especially when you’re relying on this data to block unwanted orders. Our product team is now aware of the concern and is reviewing how we can make the tracking more transparent.

Thank you again for your feedback — it really helps us improve the app. If there’s anything else I can assist with, I’m here for you.

Warm regards,
Joyce
Blockify Support Team"

Hi there,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — even though it's difficult to hear, we truly appreciate your honesty.

We're deeply sorry that Blockify didn't deliver the protection you were hoping for, especially when you installed it specifically to manage increasing bot traffic. We understand how disappointing and even alarming it must have felt to see unwanted orders continue to come through, and then find that they weren’t even recorded in the app's activity log. That’s not the experience we aim to deliver, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this caused you.

We know a simple apology isn’t enough, which is why our Product Manager has already reached out to you directly via email. We’re hoping to better understand your store’s setup, walk through what happened, and see if there’s any way we can provide a better solution moving forward — whether that’s through additional features, a more tailored configuration, or simply learning how we can improve.

We genuinely care about our users, and your feedback is not being taken lightly. It’s helping us refine our product, and we’d be grateful for the opportunity to turn this situation around and support you properly.

Thank you again for trying Blockify. We know your trust is earned, and we hope you’ll consider giving us a second chance.

Warm regards,
The Blockify Team

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We understand how frustrating this experience must have been. After checking our system logs, we found that the app was not taking effect at that time because Blockify’s App Embed had not been enabled, which is required for country/IP blocking to work on Shopify.

This issue has now been resolved, and the blocking rules are working correctly after our team’s support session. Our Product Manager has also reached out to you directly via email to provide dedicated support and ensure everything is set up properly. Please check your inbox (and spam folder just in case). We’re here to help and truly appreciate your patience.

Niel is great. I love these 'gem' apps that are exactly what I need, entirely free. No more spam!

Edit - 2/4. The App Seemingly just stopped blocking selected countries and now I get a lot of spam traffic.

The app has been blocking locations that shouldn't be blocking for I don't know how long, because I just realized today, and I have lost potential customers due to this.

I can't even access the settings to correct it! It's quite disappointing and frustrating.

Please help fix this issue.

I used this app to help me to block Bots, because they were still visiting my site, and I never saw where I could block a particular city. Although the owner, would send me a video, it did not match the same as on the site. After the owner attempts to help me three times, she stopped, she stopped responding, and the time span to respond to me was the time difference, she is in another country.

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I appreciate your feedback, and I’m sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience.

I apologize on behalf of everyone at Omega. We know that dealing with Bots is very essential to protect your site, but we are also aware that we can’t control how the Shopify platform needs the website to be fully loaded before allowing the app to work, therefore, you can sometimes still see the traffics from blocked IPs/Countries when actually they have been blocked a few second after getting to the site, and will not be able to view or take any action on your store.

We also apologize for the late follow-up we have with your case. As you can see from other reviews, we are known for caring deeply about our customers. We can’t fix the past but we will use the feedback to make us better and to ensure the app is still working well with your store.

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. I’m very sorry we failed to meet your expectations. I hope you will give us another chance so you can get the kind of excellent experience we’re known for.

Sincerely,
The Omega support team
