Fraud prevention

The fraud prevention feature will help you keep track of suspicious behaviors, and prevent repetitive fraud. By automatically marking orders as suspicious, alerting you to collect more information from the customer (for dispute purposes), and even blocking customers according to details like phone numbers and delivery addresses.

Blocking Customer Profile

From the customer's profile you can block existing customers. Once blocked the customer wouldn't be able to order anymore. Our system block customers by their phone number, email and a few other parameters (that we prefer not to mention) - so this customer wouldn't be able to order anymore.

How to block?

Under the customers tab, locate the customer using the customer lookup option, and go to the customer's profile:

Block

Blocked Addresses

How to start?

Under the "Fraud Prevention" tab (on the new portal) -

Adding new areas to the Blocked Addresses list

ENTER an address - enter a specific address to the search bar in the upper-left corner.
Draw a polygon containing the location you wish to add to the blocked addresses list (i.e - around a building, block, specific facility, etc.). Double-click to create the area.
Choose a name for the new area.

Choosing a Block Level

4. Choose your desired Block Level for the new area:

1) Warning on the check

This option allows the customer within the area to process an order, but, it will print a warning message on the check printed in the business. You can customize the warning message printed on the check. It is recommended to create an indicative message to remind of the issue that arose in this area.

This is in order to warn the staff and allow them to decide whether to continue with the order, or, alternatively, contact the customer for additional information in order to verify his identity, for example.

2) Block

This option will block customers within the selected area from processing their orders.

The customers will go through the regular flow of creating their order, but, upon placing it - they will encounter an error message preventing them from paying and processing the order to your business.
