Equalize Digital Accessibility Checker

Real-time accessibility testing and automated fixes in your WordPress dashboard. Start making your WooCommerce store accessible today.

StoreGuard provides enterprise-grade IP rate limiting for WooCommerce stores of any size. By restricting the number of actions any single IP address can perform within a specific time window, StoreGuard automatically blocks malicious activity while maintaining a smooth experience for legitimate customers.
Whether you’re fighting registration spam, brute-force login attacks, comment spam, review spam, card testing fraud, or checkout abuse, StoreGuard has comprehensive protection for all critical WooCommerce functions.
<ul>
<li>
The Card-Testing Nightmare: Card testing (bots trying thousands of stolen credit cards on a checkout page) can cause payment gateway bans, thousands of dollars in chargeback fees, and lost API access. Frame StoreGuard as the “Ultimate Anti-Chargeback & Fraud Shield.”
</li>
<li>
The Inventory / Server Crash Angle: Emphasize that brute-force bot signups and rapid checkouts slow down servers or lock up stock, causing real customers to abandon carts.
</li>
<li>
The Peace of Mind : Stop payment fraud before it hits your gateway. Save thousands in chargeback fees for just $29/year.
</li>
</ul>
<h2>7 Independent Rate Limiters</h2>
1. Registration Protection — Stop registration spam and automated bot accounts. Limit signups per IP with customizable time windows and block durations. Recommended: 3 attempts per 60 minutes, block for 24 hours.
2. Checkout Protection — Prevent payment fraud and checkout abuse. Covers classic forms, AJAX checkout, and WooCommerce Blocks. Recommended: 10 attempts per 60 minutes, block for 12 hours.
3. Login Protection — Block brute-force password attacks across all login methods (WordPress login, WooCommerce account login, REST API, custom endpoints). Recommended: 5 failed attempts per 30 minutes, block for 60 minutes.
4. Password Reset Protection — Prevent email enumeration attacks by limiting password reset requests per IP. Stop attackers from discovering valid email addresses in your system.
5. Comment & Review Protection — Stop spam submissions on posts, pages, and product reviews. Configure independently for different limits on comments vs. reviews.
6. Payment Method Protection — Reduce card testing attacks by limiting payment method additions per IP. Works with all WooCommerce payment gateways and REST API.
7. IP Management — Whitelist trusted IPs (office, developers, partners), manually block suspicious IPs, and view all currently blocked IPs in your dashboard.
