Reviews of Sensfrx and Riskified
I was being attacked by bots trying to create accounts, but they were very supportive and helpful. I ended up switching to a paid plan because there were so many attacks, but it was worth it. I plan to continue using them.
It was easy to implement, it is easy to use, the support is great and easy to contact via discord. Stopped fraud orders specifically from some AI engine. Good work on billing shipping address match.
