Why do bots like e-commerce so much?
Bots love e-commerce site as they generally have payment gatreways to abuse and, often, lower security measures than other sites.
- Historically Weaker Security.
- E-commerce sites have long prioritised frictionless user experience, avoiding security measures that could disrupt sales. While this was once a valid concern, modern solutions now offer strong protection without harming conversions.
- Direct Financial Gain.
- Bots exploit online stores for fraudulent purchases, carding attacks, and resale opportunities, making e-commerce a prime target for profit-driven cybercriminals.
- Bots & Chargeback Fraud.
- Bots test stolen cards, make fraudulent purchases, and trigger chargebacks, leaving businesses with direct financial losses, penalty fees, and increased processing costs. High chargeback rates can also lead to higher transaction fees or account suspensions from payment providers.
- High Volume of Transactions.
- E-commerce sites process thousands of orders daily, making it easier for bots to blend in with real users, evade detection, and commit fraud at scale.
† While you’re crushing it with sales, bots are sneaking through, hidden in the crowd.
