Ashley Harris, Customer Success Manager, Caraway Home
Caraway Home is a leading sustainable houseware brand that emphasizes non-toxic and eco-friendly kitchen and home products. Known for its commitment to customer well-being and product safety, Caraway has built a strong reputation among consumers who value clean, sustainable living. The brand’s commitment to customer satisfaction drives their ongoing efforts to ensure that every interaction, from purchase to support, reflects the high standards that Caraway’s loyal customers have come to expect.
Top 3 Challenges
As Caraway Home became increasingly popular with consumers, they encountered new challenges in maintaining the security and efficiency of their transaction processes. Popular products often attract more attention from fraudsters. And as fraud attempts became more frequent, managing these incidents quickly became a substantial strain on Caraway’s resources — especially during high-demand periods — often slowing shipping times and hurting the customer experience.
1. High Rate of Fraudulent Transactions: Cutting Into Revenue
Before implementing NoFraud, approximately 18% of Caraway’s transactions were identified as fraudulent, posing a risk of significant revenue loss. This surge in fraudulent activity demanded immediate attention, particularly as Caraway prepared for its busy holiday season, when any delay or revenue loss could impact the bottom line.
2. Manual Fraud Review Burden: Fraudsters Stealing Time and Resources From Real Customers
Caraway’s customer support team was dedicating substantial time to reviewing and investigating potential fraud cases. The manual fraud checks diverted valuable resources away from supporting legitimate customers, creating an operational bottleneck that reduced team efficiency and slowed response times for real customer issues.
3. Too Much Fraud to Scale: Chipping Away at the Customer Experience
Frequent manual fraud checks introduced delays and additional verification steps, which could lead to customer frustration and even lost sales. The heightened scrutiny on transactions, though necessary for fraud prevention, risked eroding customer trust if not managed in a seamless, customer-friendly way.
Why Caraway Home Chose NoFraud
To address these issues, Caraway Home turned to NoFraud’s automated fraud prevention platform, which provides essential tools to streamline order approvals and enhance customer satisfaction. Caraway was especially impressed with how NoFraud’s solution fit the unique needs of brands within the home and garden category.
In this industry, 34.41% of orders that Shopify would cancel are deemed safe to ship by NoFraud, and 86.41% of orders that Shopify recommends for investigation are actually safe to ship without extra review. This precision allowed Caraway to confidently approve transactions that other systems might delay, optimizing both order processing and customer satisfaction. Caraway chose NoFraud for the following reasons.
“NoFraud has made such an impact in a short time, especially at a critical time for our business. The dashboard is easy to navigate, and we can easily see any patterns or red flags, which is especially helpful during our busy season.”
