Bot detection & IP blocking for Shopify

You keep paying for clicks that were never going to buy.

You've seen it. The same IP shows up 5, 6, 7 times a day. Never buys, never adds to cart — just clicks. And every one of those clicks is on your ad budget. BotBlockade shows you exactly who they are, then helps you shut them out.

The math is brutal.

A single fake visitor clicking your ad 40 times a day, seven days a week, is real money leaving your account — for zero orders. Multiply that across every bot in your traffic. BotBlockade turns that invisible drain into a list you can act on.

How it works

Watch. Score. Block.

Three steps, running the whole time your store is open.

  1. 01

    Watch

    Every visitor, live. Real IP address, country, sessions, clicks and orders — the moment they land on your store. Nothing sampled, nothing guessed.

  2. 02

    Score

    BotBlockade weighs each visitor's behavior into a single 0–100 risk score, then color-codes it — green for real shoppers, amber for suspicious, red for almost-certainly a bot.

  3. 03

    Block

    Block a bad IP in one click. Or set a threshold and let BotBlockade block high-risk visitors for you — while your trusted customers stay on an allowlist, untouched.

Features

Everything you need to see them and stop them

Built for Shopify owners who are tired of paying for traffic that never converts.

Live visitor feed

A real-time roster of who's on your store right now — real IP, location with a country tag, sessions, clicks and orders. The same feed you'd wish you had every time you looked at a suspicious spike in your ad reports.

0–100 bot risk score

Every visitor gets one clear number and a color. Red, amber, green — you know at a glance who deserves a second look.

One-click IP blocking

See a bad actor, hit block. That IP stops reaching your store immediately — no rules to write, no code to touch.

Auto-block by threshold

Set the risk score you're comfortable with and let BotBlockade block anything above it, around the clock — even while you sleep.

Country blocking

Only ship to certain countries? Pick where you do business and BotBlockade quietly turns away traffic from everywhere else.

Trusted-IP allowlist

Your best customers, your office, your VA — add them once and automation will never touch them. Real people never get caught in the net.

How the free trial works. Your trial runs for 14 days at no cost. On day 15 your subscription automatically begins and Shopify charges your selected plan ($12.95/month) to your Shopify account. To avoid being charged, cancel before day 15 by uninstalling BotBlockade from your Shopify admin (Settings → Apps and sales channels → uninstall); uninstalling ends the subscription immediately.

FAQ

Straight answers

What happens when my free trial ends?

Your 14-day trial is completely free. On day 15, your subscription starts automatically and Shopify bills you for the plan you chose — $12.95/month or $119.95/year. You'll be billed through your normal Shopify account, alongside your other app charges.

How do I cancel so I'm not charged?

Cancel any time before day 15 to avoid the charge. Go to your Shopify admin → Settings → Apps and sales channels, find BotBlockade, and uninstall it. Uninstalling ends the subscription immediately. You can reinstall later, though trials are one per store.

Will BotBlockade block my real customers?

Not if you don't want it to. You decide what gets blocked. Manual blocking only touches the IPs you choose. Automatic blocking only kicks in above the risk threshold you set, and anyone on your trusted-IP allowlist is always safe — real shoppers don't get caught in the net.

What's the difference between manual and auto-block?

Manual is you, in the driver's seat: watch the feed, spot a bad IP, click block. Auto-block is BotBlockade doing that for you against a threshold you set — useful overnight and during big campaigns. Most owners run both. Either way, you stay in control.

Do I need to touch any code?

No. BotBlockade installs from the Shopify App Store and runs from your admin. There's nothing to configure in your theme and no scripts to paste.

Is annual really cheaper?

Yes. Annual is $119.95/year — about $9.99/month — which saves you roughly $35 a year compared with paying monthly. That's more than two months free.
