Excellent. The support was fantastic (Amy) and got us sorted straight away. Completely stopped the bots creating abandoned checkouts and polluting our email contact database. Fantastic app.

This app adds an aditional layer of protection against the cc testing bots. I was getting flooded with them, about 5 orders per minute and there isn't any other way to block them other than using a WAF firewall like this one.

We kept dealing with bot attacks that were impacting our customer and order records plus muddying our email marketing. This happened for weeks and I was unsure how to fix it. Not only have the attacks stopped but Armex helped me set up the app to make sure it was configured properly.

Outstanding support and a solution that actually worked! We had a serious bot attack creating large numbers of fake abandoned checkouts through direct Shopify cart permalink URLs. It was disrupting our analytics, affecting our checkout setup and causing a major headache for the business. Ashley and the Armex team were excellent throughout. They took the time to properly investigate how the bots were accessing the site, identified that they were mainly targeting our root domain, helped us reconfigure the protection step by step, and then monitored the traffic until the issue was under control. Armex is now blocking the malicious cart requests while genuine customers can browse, use guest checkout and place orders normally. What impressed me most was the support. Ashley was patient, thorough and genuinely determined to get to the bottom of the problem rather than just giving generic advice. Very grateful for the help and would absolutely recommend Armex. 5 stars.

I highly recommend Armex! Ashley provided exceptional customer service! She was knowledgeable, patient, and quick to respond to all of my questions. She guided me through each step and made sure my website's Proxy Mode and Bridge Mode were configured correctly. Most importantly, Armex is the only app that successfully stopped the bots from attacking our website. We tried other apps, but nothing else worked. I appreciate Ashley's professionalism and Armex's outstanding protection!

I have had this app in place now for a considerable period of time. I noticed that I was receiving many false bot checkouts and newsletter signups, I'm talking about dozens of them every day. This was playing havoc with my analytics and attempts to build customer lists for emails. I tried a few apps to deal with this, all of them completely ineffective. Fortunately, I continued to try out apps until I discovered Armex. It worked instantly and it continues to do so. The support is simply second to none, always there and always willing to help. I cannot speak highly enough of them!

We installed this app after receiving a significant amount of spam from Shopify checkout. It has been a lifesaver and effectively stopped all issues with abandoned cart spam. We have used the app for six months now. Once it is set up, you can trust it to handle the bots so you can focus on your business. I highly recommend it!

I don't usually write reviews, but this app is a life saver! We were getting hundreds of spam email sign ups a day, driving up our klaviyo bill each month and hurting our open rates. I tried filtering out emails, downloaded other security apps, contacted shopify; none of them made any difference. I downloaded this app a few hours ago, followed the steps and boom! The bot check outs have finally stopped. I'll update this if we experience any site issues from this app but for now everything is running as it should

This is the only app that was able to actually block the checkout bots from my webiste. I tried multiple different apps (the heighest rated ones) and none of them worked. I tried blocking countires, IP address, and none of that even made a dent in the 100+ attemted checkouts I was getting every single day. The instructions were clear, the customer service was great, and It stopped the bots immediatly in their tracks. If you're dealing with checkout bots and can't figure out how to stop them, this app is your answer!

If you’re dealing with fraudulent or bot-generated abandoned checkouts, stop wasting time ... get this plugin. We tried every app Shopify support recommended, and none of them stopped the attacks. But within just hours of installing and configuring this plugin, the bot checkouts completely stopped. Absolutely worth every penny! Thank you for solving a problem Shopify couldn’t.

I was having major issues with bots doing fake orders and had no idea how to stop it. I tried this app and it has stopped it. There is also amazing customer service. Amy reached out to make sure they could help solve that problem before I signed up for the subscription. They have helped every step of the way. If you don't know how to do something, they will assist you and make sure things are done properly. I give the highest recommendation for this app!

we were getting bombarded with bot orders which abandoned checkout. This also caused our klaviyo account to increase in size which caused us to pay more for klaviyo and also caused our CVR to decrease. Once I installed Armex it resolved the problem

We are very satisfied with the firewall. No more abandoned shopping carts from bots, no new “bot customers.” Finally, we can make use of Shopify's statistics, as they are much more accurate. Kudos to the support team. We had a small problem with the DNS configuration. The support team brought it to our attention and gave us two possible solutions. TOP!!

I have been on the internet for 25 years and have faced many issues. The Support team with this app is by far the best support I have ever seen. There was no throwing an article at me to read to solve a complicated issue nor were they slow to answer. They knew my problem and fixed it quickly. I don't go to support to fix something myself, I go to get help because I do not know what to do. These people understand that concept. Use them , they are TOP NOTCH! LJ

Works as described. I wish they had a country blocker, but they said they are working on it. Outside of that, it has been effective in stopping the bots. It does take some monitoring and adding ISPs that the bots are still using.

First, the support from the team at Armex has been stellar. This team has gone above and beyond in helping me stop the bots that were constantly causing problems for me. After months of issues, I am bot free thanks to the team here at Armex. I am not very techy and had concerns about the changes needed to keep my website safe and secure. I really don't understand how this all works and I was worried I would make mistakes and create a bigger mess. Ashley walked me thru the process step by step and explained everything in a very clear and concise manner that I could easily understand. The DNS changes weren't as hard as I feared and the whole process was actually quite easy once I knew what steps to take. She provided me with screen shots of what steps to take with instructions that were easy for me to understand and carry out. We had to make a few changes and tweak some things as we went bc the road to blocking bots isn't always clear but they had answers and solutions for me along the way as we problem solved. The team took the time to address my many, many questions and didn't make me feel stupid for not knowing or understanding how this whole process works. Honestly, I haven't dealt with a better team here on Shopify. If you need help with bots, this is the app to get! I highly recommend. (it is amazing to me that Shopify can't help us sort this out!) I feel extremely confident and safe with the firewall/protection from Armex. It's nice to have my website bot-free! Thanks for everything! Lisa

Finally—bots blocked, sanity (mostly) restored. After getting slammed by checkout bots and paying real money in Shopify transaction fees for fake orders generated by malicious bots, I installed Amrex. Yes, the setup involves DNS tweaks that took me a while to get my head around, but the support team was absolutely stellar and held my hand the whole way. Now the bots are locked out, the store runs fine, and I no longer wake up wondering how much ghost transactions are going to cost me or whether they've flooded my mailing list and triggered abandoned checkout automations. Still watching for the next attack, but so far, so good. If you’re on Basic and under siege, this is the app you want. I'd give it ten stars if I could.

This is the only app that actually stopped all the bots. My store was getting hundreds of fake emails a day and Shopify suggested some apps that did absolutely nothing. Within a few hours of installing this app, the attacks completely stopped. Their customer service team was great in helping me set this up on my store. I highly recommend this app and their customer service team.

We've had one of the best support experiences so far with Armex, thanks to Amy and the team. They are prompt, thorough in their explanations, and genuinely helpful. We were dealing with frustrating bot traffic, fake add-to-carts, and getting nowhere with Shopify's support. Armex was the only app that actually helped us resolve the issue. Not only did it work, but the team continues to provide fantastic support whenever we need it. Highly recommend both the app and the people behind it!

We've had a huge bot problem on our website. The bots would create fake sessions, abandoned checkouts (40-50 of them in an hour) and make it really hard for us to track performance or carry out automation. Armex worked very well and we haven't received a single bot ever since the firewall had been set up. The support team is super super prompt, knowledgeable, nice and helpful.

Thank you!!! For the past few months we've been getting nearly 1000 abandoned cart orders per day. This app stopped them all immediately. Plus, the subscription price is fair, installation was easy, and the app interface is intuitive. Very impressive.

We had an out-of-control bot attack on our store, abandoning their cart but infiltrating our klaviyo account. 5 - 10 emails per minute entered our account, and NO one could help me. Klaviyo couldn't do anything, Shopify had no solutions without paying thousands more, and fraud blockers only helped prevent checkouts, but not the email issue, and other apps failed to work. Within minutes of setting this up, our account was no longer under attack! Could not believe it.

Our store was being overrun by traffic from AWS bots! Our existing app (Easy Country Blocker) reported that it was blocking the visits, but distressingly the traffic didn’t stop. After much searching, I found ARMEX and it has put a DEAD STOP to the traffic we don’t want. It wasn’t too difficult to onboard, just waiting for the DNS records to go live and our support person, Ashley, quickly responded as we moved through set up. We’re so so so grateful! Looking forward to seeing this app onboard new features like geo block.

Had a bot attacking my store and adding something to the cart as random customers. It ends up flooding my e-mail system, e-mailing fake customers, and bumping me into a higher payment plan. The ONLY way it would stop was to have Shopify require customers to login to check out, which hurts conversion rates. I tried several apps, Flows, and Cloudflare (which I found can't be used with Shopify), and nothing else worked. It's been over an hour and from the moment I enabled it, it has blocked the bot (which hits every couple of minutes or so).

Armex helped me solve the bot traffic issue that Shopify couldn’t handle for months. Amy and David were incredibly patient and professional in guiding me through the firewall setup. Now those annoying bots are finally gone from my store. I’m so happy this long-standing problem is finally resolved. I’ll be sharing Armex on social media!

Armex Firewall immediately blocked all of the checkout bots. We were getting hundreds of fake bot profiles per day prior to Armex and we had tried a few different apps in the past. Armex support patiently walked me through DNS settings over a few days to ensure we don't crash our website. Thank you!

Armex...the ONLY app that will solve the "my store is getting attacked by bots" issue. We had bots creating HUNDREDS of abandoned cart and customer sign ups...DAILY! This type of behavior RUINS your email status (=lost revenue), wrecks your shop and keeps us store owners up at night. Shopify's solution? tell you "it's a known issue and they're working on it" And "here's a list of apps, that won't work, but we'll tell you they do" We downloaded Armex. Support was excellent. Within HOURS the bot traffic started to slow and now it's gone. Congrats to Ashley and her team for creating a REAL solution to an issue that is plaguing many Shopify store owners.

After >8 months of bot traffic and checkout spam, which destroyed our email deliverability with bounces... and Shopify MTS unable or unwilling to have this conversation, Armex script and firewall has succeeded where all other solutions were either half-ass or failures. We STILL will maintain Klaviyo segments and flows with filters to prevent the no-name-set bots. We STILL will have a n8n server instance to filter and delete obvious bots, such as No Name Set, or Name set with pattern recognition. Profiles with no activities. And profiles that KLAVIYO is determining "suspicious" and not permitting the flow to send to the profile (Skipped). But these profiles are not tagged or marked by Klaviyo as suspicious, so the profiles still appear as active. Yet, some bots persist. And then there are SCRAPER bots, such as domain.com/products.json?limit=250&page=1 And Armex can send these bots directly to access denied. And they do not get to pass go or collect $200 or get anywhere near Shopify or Klaviyo (via backfill integration) !!!! I FINALLY get my analytics back! And we can resume browse and checkout abandon flows without worrying about decimating our deliverability. I use CloudFlare for domain/dns and the Armex solution works PERFECTLY with CloudFlare. Easy dns edit. as Mount-It! said in their review: "Note for Shopify: Learn from this!" Finally, support has been fast to answer my questions, and total pros. Thank you!! I will update if anything changes.

Finally – a real solution to Shopify bot traffic! We were struggling with fake sessions, bogus add-to-carts, and inflated analytics for months. Shopify offered no real help, but this app fixed everything almost instantly. Setup was straightforward, support was phenomenal, and best of all — it actually works. Clean data, better ad performance, and no more junk traffic. If you’re serious about protecting your store and your metrics, this is the app you need. Game changer. Note for Shopify: Learn from this!
