Fraud Prevention settingsShow the fraud settings page so merchants can see where detection rules, thresholds, and alert delivery are configured.
  1. Open Settings → Fraud Prevention.
  2. Turn fraud protection on if you want the system checks to run.
  3. Review the self-purchase and same-household controls.
  4. Review coupon-stuffing and stacked-discount behavior.
  5. Set the daily and high-value thresholds that match your program.
  6. Confirm the fraud alert email if you want suspicious activity notifications sent to a specific inbox.

Settings explained

  • Enable fraud prevention turns the review system on or off.
  • Block self-purchase commissions stops partners from earning on their own purchases.
  • Block same-household purchases helps catch activity tied to the same home or network.
  • Coupon stuffing detection flags unusual discount patterns.
  • Stacked discount rule tells the system when combined discounts are intentional.
  • Threshold fields decide when behavior should be flagged.
  • Fraud alert email controls where notifications should go.

Example

A merchant enables fraud prevention, blocks self-purchase commissions, keeps stacked discounts disabled, lowers the high-value review threshold before a seasonal promotion, and sends alerts to the operations inbox.

Tips and limits

  • Review fraud settings before major promotions, not only after alerts appear.
  • Lower thresholds create more review work, so tune them carefully.
  • If alerts feel noisy, adjust the thresholds instead of disabling the whole page immediately.
