1. Create your account
Sign up at login.fraudcommandcenter.com/signup. You'll start on the free Shadow tier, which scores up to 5,000 orders per month in view-only mode. Upgrade to a paid tier when you're ready to auto-block or auto-hold.
2. Create a store and API key
In the dashboard at mcp.fraudcommandcenter.com:
- Open Settings → Stores and add a workspace.
- Open Settings → API keys and create a key.
- Copy the API key and HMAC secret. The secret is shown once.
3. Connect your platform
Shopify Coming soon
The Shopify app is in private beta. Once it's live on the App Store, search “Fraud Command Center” and click Add app. The app auto-provisions a store, API key, and webhook on first load — no copy-pasting secrets. Need early access for testing? Get in touch.
WooCommerce
Download the plugin zip from /v1/plugin/download or install via the WordPress plugin browser. Then in WP admin:
- Open FraudShield → Settings.
- Paste your API key and HMAC secret.
- Click Test connection. You should see a green ✓ within a second.
Custom platforms
Any platform that can make an HMAC-signed HTTP request can integrate. See the API reference for the request format and Custom platforms for a complete walkthrough.
4. Send your first order
Place a test order through your storefront. Within a few seconds you'll see it appear in Transactions with a risk score, score breakdown, and recommended action.
5. Tune thresholds and rules
In Settings → Thresholds, set the score bands at which orders are auto-approved, sent to review, or held. Defaults are conservative — most merchants only adjust after a week of real traffic.
On Rules, add deterministic checks (e.g., “flag orders > $500 from new emails”) using the visual builder, or describe a pattern in plain English and let the AI rule creator generate it for you.

- How scoring works — understand what feeds the score.
- Rules engine — compose deterministic conditions.
