What Is a High-Risk Order on Shopify and How Do You Handle It Without Losing Money? Quick answer: A high-risk order is an order Shopify flags as likely fraudulent because it shows warning signs like an IP that doesn't match the card's country, VPN/proxy use, or multiple card attempts. If you fulfill a flagged order that turns out to be fraud, you'll get a chargeback: you lose both the product and the money, plus a penalty fee. The right move is to not fulfill right away verify the customer (call/email), check the risk signals, and automatically block dangerous orders before they ever enter your system.
