7 Best Shopify Fraud Protection Apps - 2026

When entering details into a shipping address, there can be a high case of typos or mistakes.

This app helps to reduce that by validating the address the customer has given you.

The app works by showing the customer the possible corrections to the address. For instance, if a customer had entered ‘Nwe York’, then the suggestion showed would be ‘New York’. This alerts the customer of potential mistakes as they’re entering in the address. And to help further, if an address can’t be verified, the seller and the buyer are emailed to let them know that the address is not verified and action needs to be taken.
