Payment fraud tools focus on checkout and chargebacks. Loop Fraud Tools focus on returns fraud, where loss shows up after delivery and payment tools no longer have visibility.

No. Fraud decisions happen in the background. You control what, if anything, a higher-risk shopper sees.

No. By evaluating behavior patterns instead of one-off signals, the system reduces false positives and unnecessary reviews.

Examples of return fraud include empty box returns, item switching, false “return not received” or “item not received” claims, and false defective claims. Platforms like Loop help brands spot suspicious return patterns like these and flag potential abuse before it becomes costly.

Fraud risk indicators appear directly in Loop’s returns views and workflows, so teams can act without switching tools.
