Over the last few weeks, I’ve had a massive influx of bots with similar names and addresses adding low price products to carts and then abandoning them. I’ve spoken with Shopify support regarding this issue and all they could tell me was to “install bot protection apps” and to turn on re-captcha. Ne…

This is the one and ONLY solution. It’s invite by link only as the app is new. I got the link from another blocker app that couldn’t solve our abandoned cart issue. After installing the app I contacted support. They walked me through the steps (took 30 minutes or so). We went from hundreds of abando…

It Sure Is! Working PERFECTLY. And… support has been quick to answer any quesitons. I am not removing my klaviyo flows or filters, and I am keeping the N8N server too – but Armex app with the firewall and script is the missing element to say goodbye to the bots. This SHOULD have been a Shopify …

Installed and issue fixed within hours. Congrats and a huge thank you for creating a real deal fix for this issue. I can sleep now.

Anyone else quite suspicious of this “solution”? I got these emails from “Boostymark” the “BM: Country blocker IP Blocker” that was also supposedly a secret solution, and started in 2023.

No. It works. And they are transparent in the support – they tell you how to solve this without using their app (if you are on Shopify Plus). I posted a 5-star review.

Armex is owned by BM. They created Armex because the BM app does not solve this issue. We were getting blasted by bots, thankfully only recently. We installed BM and then complained when it did not solve the issue…so BM recommend Armex. We installed Armex and within 24 hours our bot traffic stopped…

Same here, We noticed an abnormal growth in traffic/subscribers. Which consequently increase our Mailchimp bill because they charge per tier on the amount of contacts. I doubt Mailchimp has anything to do with it, but bringing it up just in case it ends up being the common link among everyone… to i…

@JanVeroti I decided to trust your recommendation a few days ago. Now all of a sudden I’m getting pinged with Errors from Shopify saying: DNS records are not pointing to Shopify [IMG_0438.jpeg]

That is to be expected because your dns records are NOT pointing to Shopify. You can ignore this. It’s a water is wet warning. This happens because your DNS is first pointing to Armex firewall, and then the traffic is routed to Shopify. Shopify detects that the DNS is not directly pointing to it a…
