About the Bot Killer (Proxy/VPN Blocker)

To bolster your store’s security, our Proxy/VPN Blocker feature allows you to control access based on visitors' IP addresses. Here’s how it works:

Activate the Proxy/VPN Blocker:
- This feature uses the powerful services of proxycheck.io to analyze visitors' IP addresses. It evaluates various factors, such as the Internet Service Provider (ISP) and other relevant data.

How It Works:
- Each time a visitor accesses your store, their IP address is thoroughly examined. A security rating is generated based on the analysis provided by proxycheck.io.

Automatic Blocking:
- If the security rating of a visitor’s IP address falls below a predefined threshold, access to your store is automatically restricted. You can customize the blocked message that will be displayed to these visitors, maintaining a secure and controlled environment for your store.

By leveraging this feature, you can effectively manage and mitigate risks from potentially harmful or unauthorized visitors, ensuring a safer online shopping experience for your legitimate customers.

If you need further assistance or have any questions about using the Proxy/VPN Blocker, please contact our support team. We’re here to help you keep your store secure and running smoothly!
