Step-by-Step: How to Test FraudLabs Pro in Shopware

1. Log in to Your Merchant Dashboard

First, log in to your FraudLabs Pro Merchant Dashboard.

Go to the Rules tab, where you’ll find 5 default fraud detection rules already created for your account. You can edit these or add your own to meet your store’s needs.

Example Rule for Testing:
We will use the Visitor IP Address EQUALS to Anonymous Proxy rule for testing purposes. This rule will flag any order placed using a proxy or anonymous IP address.

2. Simulate a Fraudulent Order

To test the rule in action:

1. Visit your Shopware store using a VPN or proxy IP address.
   
2. Add an item to the cart and proceed to checkout.
   
3. Enter shipping details and complete the order.

FraudLabs Pro will screen the order immediately and apply your rules.

3. Review Order in Shopware Admin Panel

Once the order is placed:

1. Login to your Shopware Admin, go to Orders > Overview.
   
2. Open the test order and click on the Details tab.
   
3. Scroll down to the Custom Fields section.
   

Here, you’ll find a fraud summary under the Internal Order Notes field. It includes:

• Fraud score (e.g., 96)
• Validation status (Approve, Review, or Reject)
  

If the rule was triggered, the order will be marked for manual review.

4. Analyze the Full Fraud Report

To view the full fraud analysis report, click the link in the Internal Order Notes.

You will see the fraud analysis report in FraudLabs Pro Merchant Area as below:

It includes:

• The fraud score and triggered rules
  
• IP geolocation and device info
  
• User information and more
  

Use this report to confidently approve or reject the transaction.

The above testing is just an example to show you how to test FraudLabs Pro fraud prevention plugin in Shopware. In the testing, we have placed an order using an anonymous proxy IP. The order is treated as risky and flagged for review. This is because it triggered one of the default rules that was set in the validation rule. You may perform other tests with other scenarios as well to further explore our plugin.
