Connect Shopify and Forter to screen orders in real time, cut chargebacks, and reduce false declines, so more legitimate customers get approved at checkout.
• Shopify order and checkout signals are sent to Forter through an app/API connection, including cart, customer, device, payment, and shipping attributes available in Shopify.
• Forter returns a decision outcome (approve, decline, or review) and metadata, which is mapped to Shopify order tags, notes, and status fields for downstream handling.
• Risk evaluation is triggered on order creation and can be re-checked on defined events (for example, address changes or payment updates), depending on the Shopify flow in use.
• The integration supports idempotent requests, so retries do not duplicate assessments, and request/response payloads are logged for audit and dispute support.
• Order identifiers are reconciled between systems using Shopify order IDs and Forter transaction IDs to keep a consistent decision trail.
• Error handling routes failed calls into a retry/alert path, and mismatched or missing fields are validated before sending to Forter.
