Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

StoreFence adds checkout restrictions to WooCommerce, starting with a customer blocklist. Block customers by email, by phone number, or both, and stop problem customers at checkout: repeated unpaid cash-on-delivery orders, chargebacks, abusive buyers.

Each entry has a restriction level. A Hard block refuses the checkout. In Pro, a Fraud / Abuse block refuses it with a deliberately vague message, and a Soft block allows checkout only with the payment methods you choose (payment method restrictions, for example cards only).

Features

  • Block by email, phone number, or both in one entry.
  • Blocklisted customers can’t check out; they see your checkout message. Keep it friendly and actionable, for example “Please contact us to complete your order”.
  • Phone numbers match regardless of format: spaces, dashes, a + or 00 prefix, or no country code at all. Numbers without a country code use your store’s base country.
  • Works with the classic checkout and the Checkout Block (Store API).
  • A badge appears on blocklisted customers’ orders, both on the order screen and in the orders list. HPOS and legacy order storage are both supported.
  • Add, edit, delete and search entries. Each entry records who added it.
  • Customers are never told they are on a blocklist. Nothing appears in emails or in My Account; they only see your checkout message.

StoreFence Pro

Pro adds two more restriction levels and faster ways to build your list:

  • Soft block: the customer can still check out, but only with the payment methods you choose, typically card gateways. Cash on delivery, bank transfer and others are hidden, and no message is shown. Payment methods update live as the customer types their email or phone.
  • Fraud / Abuse: checkout is refused with a separate Fraud message. Keep it generic, so the customer doesn’t learn they were flagged.
  • Bulk import: paste one customer per line. Pasted CSV works.
  • Block from an order: blocklist a customer straight from the order screen via Order actions. The entry is linked to that order.

The free version blocks every entry as a Hard block.
