Let's take a closer look at the outline of Beacon.

One of the features of BEACON is that 24 hours a day, 365 -day shops can be monitored using AI and machine learning.
This detects and analyzes the risk of misconduct to prevent damage.

Comparing the amount of information uploaded in the world, there may be a lot of information about the latter Beacon. If you are considering the introduction of an unauthorized order prevention app, you will contact a variety of information about Beacon. Don't confuse the communication method Beacon.


High -priced products and cross -border EC sites can take advantage of BEACON because of high risk

In the case of an EC site that handles high -priced products, the amount of damage due to unauthorized orders is large, and in the case of cross -border e -commerce sites, the risk of unprofessional unprofessional or returned goods is high due to laws and regulations applied in the country of sales destinations. I do. In such a case, a 24 -hour 365 -day shop monitoring using AI and machine learning can be detected and analyzed, and Beacon is effective.


Unauthorized orders that can occur in SHOPIFY

Regardless of the number of users or sales, the risk of unauthorized orders needs to keep in mind if it is an EC site. Here, we will explain the unauthorized orders that can occur in SHOPIFY as follows.


What is unauthorized order?

Unauthorized orders are to buy products by abusing others' credit cards, and exploiting purchased products. The flow of unauthorized orders is as follows.


  1. Get card number / PIN unauthorized

  2. Online payment on EC site

  3. Credit card owner contacts a credit card company

  4. Survey on unauthorized orders

  5. If you can confirm that it is fraudulent, cancel the payment


Shopify is currently not compensating for the cancellation of payment. Therefore, even if you notice that it is an unauthorized order after shipping the product, you may not be returned after the deposit has been canceled.


Some products are easy to be targeted by unauthorized orders

Popular products that can be sold as soon as you get them are products that are easy to be targeted by illegal orders. Specifically, the following products are listed.


  • Precious metal

  • Branded goods

  • clock

  • PC / peripheral device

  • Home appliances

  • AV equipment


In recent years, unauthorized orders for low -priced products that are popular at online auctions have occurred. Be careful when you obviously get unusual large -scale orders or buy multiple times.


Incorporation fraud

Intractive fraud is a scam that exploits the post -payment system. Specifically, don't pay, even though you ordered and received the product. Businesses can not collect sales and are deceived only products, causing great damage to EC sites.


Resale purpose / mischief order

The resale purpose and the mischief order is to avoid receiving the product by abusing the cash on delivery system.

If you order for resale purposes, you will exhibit the product on the auction site or flea site in advance, and if you purchase it, you will receive the product. However, if you do not purchase, you will refuse to receive it.

In the case of mischief orders, you will refuse to receive it when the product is delivered, despite ordering an expensive product or a large amount of the same product. Unlike the "incorporation fraud" mentioned above, it is not taken only by the product, but it costs shipping and extra time for shipping the product.


Security measures taking place in SHOPIFY




SHOPIFY has a wide range of security measures to protect important information about customers and payments. Here, we will explain three of the security measures performed in SHOPIFY: "access restriction", "SSL", and "24 -hour monitoring system".

Access restriction

If you operate an EC site with multiple staff, you will be able to limit access to a specific staff account from the management screen.
By applying access restrictions, you can create a situation that only the minimum staff involved in the work can access, so it is possible to prevent problems such as accidentally deleting data or disclosing information during the work. 。
In addition, even if there is access from the outside, there is no worry about trouble such as rewriting data without permission, so it is possible to say that unauthorized access measures are perfect.


Always install SSL

SHOPIFY is always equipped with "SSL" that encrypts the data to be sent and received.
"SSL" is an abbreviation of Secure Sockets Layer, which plays an important role in protecting communication content, such as thorough avoidance of falsification.
If SSL is always installed, SHOPIFY has the following advantages.


  • Protection of personal information such as credit card information

  • Improvement of SEO

  • Improvement of reliability


24 -hour surveillance system

SHOPIFY has built a 24 -hour monitoring system with white hackers to monitor server security.
White hackers are "healthy hackers" that use computer and program knowledge and skills for good purposes.
In general, white hackers are hired by companies and governments, and have a role in response to bugs and server attacks on sites.
Even if a bug occurs on the SHOPIFY EC site, the white hacker can be ready for a 24 -hour system.


To prevent unauthorized orders in SHOPIFY

According to one theory, the amount of unauthorized orders on e -commerce sites around the world is more than $ 60 billion per year.
Here, we will explain how to prevent unauthorized orders in SHOPIFY.


Insert an unauthorized / unauthorized order prevention app

Shopify has released not only Beacon but also some unauthorized orders.
I will omit the explanation here, but there are some that can be introduced with simple settings and some can be used for free, so if you are interested, please check it out.


Keep your account security

Measures to prevent unauthorized access to accounts are to maintain account security, such as generating unique passwords to accounts and not sharing login qualifications.
Passwords tend to set the same password in multiple accounts.
If you do not have a unique password, the combination of username and password will be leaked, increasing the risk of unauthorized access damage.


Perform 3D security

3D Secure is a security function to prevent unauthorized use of credit cards during online shopping.
Only if you are asked to verify your identity, you can perform simple and safely authentication, such as one -time password and device authentication.
By the way, 3D security is required in the SHOPIFY store of EU.


Use security code

The security code is a three -digit number listed on the sign panel on the back of the card.
Currently, most sites cannot complete payments unless they enter security code.
However, the security code, unlike the 3D security described above, must be burdened by the EC site if a chargeback occurs.


Back up regularly

Regular backup is essential to prevent unauthorized orders.
SHOPIFY also offers a backup function, but we also recommend that you consider your own backup.
The benefits of backing up independently are as follows.


  • Even if some problem occurs in SHOPIFY, the possibility that it can be recovered quickly from the backup that is managed independently will increase.


  • You can customize the backup settings according to your needs, so you can protect the optimal for EC sites.


Introducing "Shopify Flow"


Why not consider the introduction of "SHOPIFY FLOW" to prevent unauthorized orders? Shopify Flow is a marketing automation app that automates various tasks and processing in SHOPIFY.
With the introduction of Shopify Flow, you can significantly reduce administrative man -hours.

In addition, since the occurrence of unauthorized orders can be set as a trigger, notifications will be sent automatically when an unauthorized order is entered.
Check the order manually and manually, and it takes a lot of time to find an unauthorized order, so consider the introduction according to the scale of the EC site.


"GO SUB" for SHOPIFY's regular purchase app


If you want to start a regular purchase (subsc) in SHOPIFY, we recommend the regular purchase application "GO SUB".
There is a starter plan that can be started for a monthly fee of 0 yen (a 2 % sales commission is charged), and support counseling by GO Ride can be used, so even regular business operators for subscribed can be used with confidence.
