Fraud Protection Shopify Apps – Analytics & Insights

UpPromote Affiliate Marketing sits at #3 with 76.6% share, rounding out the top tier.

Fraud Protection is a fragmented market — the top 3 apps together hold only 76.6% of installs, leaving Airwallex Fraud Protection's 0 lead modest in absolute terms and UpPromote Affiliate Marketing at 76.6% still capturing meaningful share. With this many viable apps, pricing model and integration depth differentiate fraud protection options more than rank does.

Airwallex Fraud Protection held #1 steadily from May 2026 to Sep 2026 — an entrenched leader in fraud protection that challengers haven't displaced. UpPromote Affiliate Marketing's share contracted -2.8pp from 79.5% (May 2026) to 76.6% (Sep 2026) — a meaningful narrowing of the leader's gap against other fraud protection apps over this window.

Australia (4.8%) and Canada (4.3%) round out the top 5.

With 45.5% of fraud protection app installs concentrated in United States, the leading apps in this category typically prioritize United States-based merchants for localization, currency, and support hours — merchants in Germany (8.3%) and other regions sometimes find better fit in apps that over-index outside United States.

BixGrow Affiliate Marketing reached 1,000 reviews in 46 months since launch — the fastest ramp among the top 5 fraud protection apps tracked here. UpPromote Affiliate Marketing in 52 months, and Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy took 64 months to cross the same milestone, a 18-month spread between the fastest and slowest in the set.

2 apps on this chart haven't yet crossed 1,000 reviews: Evereye | Fraud Protection at 25, Airwallex Fraud Protection at 2 cumulative reviews. Evereye | Fraud Protection is closest to the milestone — its current count puts it roughly 3% of the way to 1,000.

The 18-month spread between BixGrow Affiliate Marketing and Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy reaching 1,000 reviews suggests a competitive fraud protection category — leaders pulled ahead by roughly a year, but no single app dominated launch-to-milestone speed. The ramp differences likely reflect both product quality and timing-of-launch rather than one clear category winner.
