Fraud protection

Catch fraud before you ship it

Every paid order is scored from 0 to 100 with the reasons in plain words, so you ship the real orders fast and hold the few that look wrong. Built into every plan, with the payment provider you already use.

Why it matters

Protect every sale without adding work

A chargeback costs you the goods, the shipping and the sale. Tanqory checks each order as it is paid and tells you which ones need a person, so the rest go out the door without a second look.

Order 1044 Low Checked when paid18 / 100

Every order checked on payment

The analysis runs on its own when an order is paid and stores the score, the level and every reason on the order.

Accept Investigate Cancel

One clear call per order

Each score comes with a recommendation: accept, investigate, or cancel and refund when the payment provider rates the charge at its highest risk.

Review handed to the right person

A ready workflow tags risky orders for review and alerts your team, so nobody has to scan every order by hand.

What the score is made of

Seven kinds of evidence on every order

No black box. The score adds up signals you can read, each with the points it carries, from the order, the buyer, the payment and the connection it came from.

7 groups of checks
Order, customer, email, address, payment, network and order bursts
0 to 100 risk score

Prevention

Set the rules, keep the decision

Stop fraud before it costs you. Turn on the fraud and risk triage workflow and every high-risk order is tagged and put in front of a person. Nothing is cancelled on its own: the call stays yours.

  • Check the risk level in any workflow, then tag, alert or log

  • Card checks from the payment, CVV, address and postal code, feed the score

Detection

Stop the fraudster, not the real buyer

Watch one order get scored. Each signal adds its points, the level moves, and the reasons stay on the order for anyone who looks.

Decide on evidence

Every indicator shows its type, its severity and the points it added, so you can see why an order was flagged before you act.

Spot a hidden connection

Proxy, VPN and TOR connections are flagged, and the IP location is matched against the shipping country.

Catch a burst of orders

Several orders from one buyer, one email or one IP address within 24 hours raise the score.

Management

Keep your focus on selling

Spend minutes on fraud, not hours. The orders that need you are already in one list, with the score, the reasons and the payment provider's own view of the charge.

  • A high-risk order list and risk statistics for any date range

  • Stripe Radar's verdict joins the score; its highest band means cancel and refund

  • Disputes sit with their order: amount, reason, status and your evidence

  • Add your own risk note to an order, or run the analysis again

AI native

Ask which orders to hold

Your Tanqory assistant reads the fraud analysis on every order. Ask it what needs a decision before the courier comes and it lists the risky orders with the reasons, so the morning check takes a minute instead of an hour. It acts only after you confirm.

  • Reads each order's score, level and indicators for you

  • Explains a flag in plain words before you decide

  • Changes nothing until you confirm

What is order risk analysis?

When an order is paid, Tanqory checks it against seven groups of signals: the order itself, the customer, the email, the addresses, the payment, the internet connection and bursts of orders. Each signal adds points to a score from 0 to 100, and the score sets the level: low up to 30, medium up to 60, high above that.

Does Tanqory cancel orders for me?

No. The analysis recommends accept, investigate, or cancel and refund, and the fraud and risk triage workflow tags risky orders and alerts your team. Accepting, holding or cancelling an order is always your decision.

Which payment providers does it work with?

It reads the card checks from the payment, such as the CVV result, the address match and the card country. With Stripe, the Radar risk level of each charge also joins the score. Stripe, PayPal and Braintree connect on every plan with a 0% Tanqory transaction fee.

What does fraud protection cost?

It is part of every plan, with no add-on fee. You pay your payment provider its own rate, and Tanqory never marks it up.

Can I see why an order was flagged?

Yes. Every indicator is stored on the order with its type, its severity and the points it added, for example a VPN connection or a card country that differs from the shipping country. You can also add your own risk note or run the analysis again.

How are disputes and chargebacks handled?

Each dispute sits with its order with the amount, reason, status and outcome. You add your evidence there or accept the dispute.
