IP Blocking Is Already Outdated. Here's What Works.

Most fraud filters rely on IP addresses. Fraudsters know this. They switch IPs in seconds with a $2/month VPN. Browsify assigns each visitor a persistent Visitor ID based on 50+ device signals. New IP, cleared cookies, incognito mode: same Visitor ID, same block.

Visitor ID fraud detection for Shopify

Visitor ID: The Signal IPs Can't Fake

Every visitor gets a unique Visitor ID that stays the same across IP changes, VPNs, incognito mode, and cookie clears. One block follows the fraudster across sessions, browsers and IPs, so they can’t come back to place another fake order.

VPN proxy TOR detection for Shopify

VPN, Proxy & TOR Detection Built-In

Real-time detection of VPN connections, residential proxies, datacenter IPs, and TOR exit nodes. Flag or auto-block high-risk visitors before they reach checkout, not after.

Auto-Block with Fraud Score

Each visitor gets a real-time fraud score based on behavior patterns, device signals, and network analysis. Set your threshold, Browsify auto-blocks high-risk visitors 24/7 without manual review.

What Merchants Say After Using Browsify

Real results from real Shopify store owners.

$2,800 saved in chargebacks

"Every week I was getting 10-15 orders that looked real, different names, different emails, but they were all the same person using stolen credit cards. I'd ship the products, then get hit with chargebacks. After I installed Browsify, it recognized it was the same device every time. One click to block, and I haven't had a single fake order in 3 months."

Sarah M.
Sarah M. Fashion Boutique, Shopify Plus
★★★★★
Ad costs cut in half in one week

"My Facebook ads were getting way more expensive and I couldn't figure out why. Turns out fake visitors were clicking 'Buy Now' on my store, which made Facebook think those were real customers and started showing my ads to more people like them, scammers. After Browsify blocked those visitors, my ad costs dropped back to normal within a week."

James T.
James T. DTC Electronics Brand
★★★★★
6 fraud orders caught automatically last month

"I found my exact product photos on another website, someone was copying everything from my store. Browsify stopped that with one toggle. But what really surprised me was the fraud blocking, it flagged 6 orders on its own that turned out to be stolen cards. I didn't have to do anything, it just worked."

Emily R.
Emily R. Handmade Jewelry Store
★★★★★
Sold out fairly for the first time ever

"We sell limited sneakers and every time we dropped a new collection, it sold out in seconds, but not to real people. Resellers were using software to buy everything before anyone else could. Browsify blocked those automated buyers, and for the first time our actual fans got to buy. Our Instagram was full of happy customers instead of complaints."

Michael L.
Michael L. Limited Edition Sneakers
★★★★★
Sales nearly doubled same traffic, better results

"I wasn't even looking for fraud protection, I just wanted to understand my traffic better. Browsify showed me that almost a third of my visitors were from countries I don't even ship to. I blocked those regions and suddenly my store went from 1 sale per 100 visitors to almost 2. Same ad budget, nearly double the sales."

Shopify Bot & Fraud
Protection FAQ

Common questions about blocking bots, AI crawlers, and fake orders on your Shopify store.

Browsify is an all-in-one fraud prevention and bot protection app for Shopify stores. It blocks malicious bots, fake orders, card testing, VPN/proxy traffic, and inspect element code scraping in real time, with automated risk scoring and customizable block rules.
Browsify analyzes IP addresses, Visitor IDs, browser fingerprints, and user behavior (e.g., multiple payment attempts or mismatched billing info) to assign risk scores and automatically flag or block suspicious orders on your Shopify store.
Yes. Browsify detects and blocks visitors using VPNs, proxies, and Tor connections. You can configure custom rules to allow or block specific types of connections based on your store's needs.
Install Browsify free from the Shopify App Store. The Starter plan includes 3,000 requests a month and shows every threat on your store. To block high-risk visitors, VPN traffic and fraud automatically, upgrade to Growth, Professional or Enterprise anytime from inside the app.
Fake orders trigger purchase events on your ad pixels (Meta Pixel, Google Ads tag, TikTok Pixel), sending false conversion data to ad platforms. This "pixel pollution" causes algorithms to optimize toward fraudster profiles instead of real buyers, resulting in higher CPA, lower ROAS, and wasted ad spend. Browsify prevents this by using Visitor ID to block fake buyers before they reach checkout, so your pixel never fires for fraudulent visitors.
Yes. If your Shopify store uses an AI-powered chatbot (Tidio, Gorgias AI, ChatGPT widget, or any LLM assistant), every message costs tokens. Bots and bad actors can spam your chat with hundreds of messages, burning through your AI budget in hours. Browsify stops these automated bots before they can interact with your chat widget, protecting your token budget and business data.
Visitor ID is a unique device identifier that stays the same even when a visitor changes their IP, uses a VPN, clears cookies, or switches browsers. Unlike IP blocking which only blocks one connection, Visitor ID recognizes the actual device, so the same bad actor can't come back with a different IP address.
Browsify organizes automated crawlers into 5 clear categories: Search Engine Crawlers (Googlebot, Bingbot), AI Model Training (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Bytespider), Realtime AI Search (Perplexity, Applebot), AI Assistants, and Web Archivers. You can allow or block each group with a single switch, ensuring your store remains indexed on Google while shielding your product catalogs and copy from unauthorized AI scrapers.
Yes. Start free on the Starter plan with 3,000 requests a month. When you need more traffic capacity, custom rules or automatic blocking, upgrade to Growth, Professional or Enterprise anytime from inside the app. Billing runs through Shopify, and you can upgrade or downgrade anytime.
You stay in control. Every blocked visit appears in Visitor Analytics, and you can unblock any visitor to add them to your allowlist. You can also choose from 3 protection levels (Essential, Enhanced, Maximum) and adjust your risk score threshold.
No. Browsify runs through a lightweight theme app embed (about 15KB) that doesn't affect your store's speed or appearance and works with any theme.
Your store stays open in safe fallback mode. Browsify stops screening new visitors, but your existing blocking rules keep working. You'll get email and Shopify notifications at 80%, 95% and 100% of your limit.
