Protect the risky orders. Leave the rest alone.

A thirty-dollar t-shirt and a three-thousand-dollar watch should not get the same treatment. Rules pick the policy per order — what is captured, whether the buyer approves, whether fulfilment waits — with nobody deciding by hand.

One policy for every order is either too slow or too thin

Ask every buyer to approve and you add friction to orders that were never at risk. Ask nobody and you are exposed exactly where it costs most. Deciding case by case works fine, right up until volume arrives.

What you get

Three conditions that actually predict risk

Order value, product category or tag, and destination country. Deliberately few: a rule engine nobody can reason about is a rule engine nobody trusts.

Six things a rule can change

Buyer mode, whether capture is required, fulfilment hold, return evidence, contract display, and what gets written back into the platform order.

Defaults stay defaults

Rules are exceptions, not the whole policy. Anything a rule does not mention keeps your store-wide setting, so one narrow rule cannot quietly rewrite everything.

Sector presets

Start from a preset for electronics, jewellery, apparel or home and adjust it, instead of from an empty page and a blank stare.

Tightening only, where it matters

Traceability requirements — serial numbers, media per line item, quantity match — can be made stricter by a rule but never looser. A rule cannot open a hole in your own policy.

One effective policy per order

Everything downstream reads the same resolved policy, so what the webhook does, what the buyer sees and what gets written back cannot disagree with each other.

How it works

  1. 1

    Set your default

    Pick what happens for a normal order: record silently, notify the buyer, or require approval.

  2. 2

    Add exceptions

    "If the order total is over five hundred, require approval and hold fulfilment."

  3. 3

    An order arrives

    Conditions are evaluated and a single effective policy is resolved for that order.

  4. 4

    Everything follows it

    Capture requirements, buyer messaging, holds and write-back all read that one policy.

Under the hood

Facts, not adjectives. Everything below describes what the product does today — nothing here is on a roadmap.

Availability

Rules live in Settings, under Protections. The underlying capture policy is on every plan; conditional rules that act on platform orders need commerce integrations, which start at Pro.

Questions people actually ask

How many rules can I have?

As many as you need. They are evaluated per order and resolve into a single effective policy, so overlapping rules produce a predictable result instead of fighting each other.

Why only three conditions?

Because the fourth one is where rule engines become unauditable. Value, category and destination cover the risk patterns merchants actually described to us; past that we would rather you decided explicitly.

Can a rule make things looser than my default?

Not for traceability requirements — those can only be tightened. Everything else a rule can set in either direction, because that is an ordinary policy choice rather than a safety net.

Do I have to build these from scratch?

No. Choose your sector, start from its preset, and adjust what does not fit.

Record every order and use it as evidence when a dispute comes up.
