RiskyBuyer – Customer Flags For WooCommerce Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
RiskyBuyer lets your team keep a list of problematic customers (uncollected COD
shipments, fake orders, abusive behaviour, etc.) and flags their orders right in
the WooCommerce orders list.
Each entry is a phone and/or a name, with a reason and an optional note. When a
customer’s order matches an entry (by normalized phone OR name), the order row
is highlighted with a warning badge — and you get a clear warning panel on the
order edit screen, with quick links to that buyer’s other orders.
Features
- Searchable, sortable list — one table of flagged buyers. Filter by phone
and/or name (with an AND/OR toggle) and by reason, and sort by any column —
all instantly in the browser. - Orders list flagging — a warning badge and colored bar on orders of
blacklisted customers. Computed server-side, so it works across pagination.
Supports both HPOS (the new orders screen) and the legacy screen. - Order edit panel — a warning when the buyer is blacklisted (with links to
their other orders on your site), or a one-click “mark client” form otherwise. - Add one or in bulk — add a single buyer or paste a list (one per line). You
can also search your existing customers (by name or phone, taken from your
orders) and pick one to fill the form. - Phone normalization — numbers are stored in international “+CC” form, so the
same person matches across formatting differences. - Roles — anyone who can edit orders (
edit_shop_orders) can add; only
administrators (manage_options) can edit or delete. - Optional shared list — opt-in synchronization with a central service (see
the “External services” section), off by default.
Architecture
The plugin talks to its data through a storage-provider interface. Today it uses
a local database table; the design is ready for a future shared/central service
so multiple sites can contribute to and read the same list.
External services
This plugin can optionally synchronize with a central, shared blacklist service
at riskybuyer.com so that your checks are extended with phone numbers
reported by other sites. This is opt-in and disabled by default — no data is
sent or received until you enable it under WooCommerce Risky buyers
Settings.
When sync is enabled:
- The plugin periodically requests the shared list (GET) to extend your local
checks. Reading the list is open. - If you have a write API key, the plugin sends your own entries to the service
to be shared: phone, name, reason, note, and your site’s domain.
The service is provided by the plugin author. Terms of Use:
