Checkout Bot Shield adds lightweight rate limiting to stop repeated automated orders while keeping real shoppers moving.

Pluximo

<p><strong>What it does:</strong> Blocks suspicious, rapid-fire checkout attempts so fake orders and carding bots cannot overwhelm your store. Legit customers still get through.<br />
<strong>Battle tested:</strong> The Pro edition is trusted by 1,000+ stores; this Lite version is a hands-on demo so you can see how it behaves before upgrading.</p>
<p><strong>Why you might want it:</strong><br />
– Protects revenue and inventory from bot abuse and testing-card attacks.<br />
– Reduces server load from repeated checkout calls.<br />
– Gives you visibility via WooCommerce log files without adding new dashboards (source name: <code>cbshield</code>).</p>
