The fraud system is impressive. It has successfully identified and prevented many instances of fraud. However, I believe that the support system could be improved. It can take a long time to get a response from customer service.
I found the system they had in place for rating each order based on fraud risks quite impressive. It's always a good idea to have some automated system in place for canceling orders deemed high-risk, as this helps prevent potential losses.
Their support is not up to the other available options' standards.
Dear John, Thank you for your honest feedback. We're glad to hear that you found our software useful and sorry for your dissatisfaction regarding our support. To be honest, the most important thing to us, even more than providing the best fraud-detection software you may find, is to give our users the highest level of support in the market. Recently, we started to provide live chat 20 hours a day (7 days a week) and we plan to make it 24\7 soon. As we can't know specifically who you are, I would personally appreciate it if you could reach out to me directly at emma@fugu-it.com so we could investigate your specific case to improve our support level and find a good way to compensate you for this specific inconvenience. Cheers, Emma, customer support.

Unique and helpful combination of people that really helps with fraud detection and prevention.
They have a very helpful team that wants to understand and solve every case, communicate with my team, and do the research when required.
Sometimes it takes time to understand a new case and build the solution.
Thank you Tomer for the lovely feedback! We'll continue working hard to keep all our users satisfied and to improve the system to the maximum level possible! Cheers, Emma, Customer Success.

FUGU is a really great app to use for fraud prevention. We were able to notice a potential fraudster and analyze their behavior and stop future fraudulent orders, saving us a loss of money!
Activity monitoring is my favorite feature of this software. It helps me understand what people are doing when they come to visit our store and weed out potential fraudsters.
What I like least about this software is the layout of the homepage. It was a little bit confusing how to navigate.
Hi Adela, thank you for your feedback! We're glad to see that you're satisfied with FUGU and we much appreciate your effort in taking your time to leave this review. Regarding the cons you mentioned, we're aware of that and already working to simplify it for you and for the rest of our users, thanks for bringing this up. Please feel free to reach out anytime for anything you need:)

My e-commerce website has limited capabilities in fraud detection. There have been several instances where FUGU has flagged a transaction missed by Shopify’s built-in software. Fortunately I haven’t had an issue yet, but j appreciate the additional peace of mind.
Some of the terminology is unclear to me - a little industry jargon. It would be helpful to have further explanation on what each detection term means and why it matters.
Hi Diane, thank you for the lovely feedback! We're glad to hear that you're satisfied with FUGU and we much appreciate your effort in taking your time to leave this review. We're also glad to read the cons - what you wrote makes sense and we'll work to simplify it for you and the rest of our users. For anything you need - please feel super free to reach out to us:) Best, Emma.

Just started my company last year and added FUGU after doing some research. It detects when a payment might be fraud, which is great because otherwise I wouldn’t be able to tell.
I guess a more obvious notification would be nice if someone is placing a risky order
Dear Megan, Thank you so much for your kind words. We're doing our best to make our users satisfied and we're happy to see such feedback. We'll keep working hard for you and the rest of the users. Regarding your note about the notifications - pls contact our support team so they will instruct you on how you can adjust the notifications for your convenience. Regards, Emma.

The features are easy to use and setup was very simple. All of our employees like the process and how it retains the customers ID verification and information in FUGU which can be used in a worst case scenario of a chargeback as evidence.

So far we have not found a "CON" or "Neg" to Fugu. You guys and gals are awesome. Thank you for the amazing product!

Love that it provides a detailed analysis on why payment fraud is low or high
If the paid feature is made free, that would be great
Dear Kayla, Thank you for your review. We're glad to know that you like our solution. We wish it would be possible to provide all features completely for free but in the meantime, you are welcome to get in touch with our sales team to see what can be done for you. Thanks again:)

Seamless experience with our own processes.
In one of the first sales we had with fugu the client asked for an extra bank verification which made him churn. I would love to set a min basket size that will require such verification
Dear Yotam, thank you so much for the honest review. We're glad to see that you are satisfied with FUGU and we'll keep working very hard to even increase your satisfaction:) Regarding the Cons you mentioned: I'm happy to inform you that we already enabled the option of adjusting the min criteria for further verification actions. Our support team will be more than glad to personally guide you on that. Please feel free to contact them. Thanks again and good luck!
