Domain Protection for E-commerce & Retail

Fake checkout pages, seller impersonation, and support scams hurt your brand and customers. We find those domains and help you take them down before damage is done.

The problem

E-commerce and retail brands are targeted by domains that mimic checkout, support, or your brand. Credential theft and refund scams erode trust and revenue. Without domain-level monitoring, you only learn about abuse when customers complain or fraud spikes.

  • Domains impersonating your checkout or payment pages
  • Impersonation domains posing as your brand or sellers
  • Typosquatting and lookalike domains capturing customer traffic
  • Fake customer support and refund scam domains
  • Abusive domains used for credential harvesting

What we do

  • Identify and help you escalate domains that impersonate your checkout, brand, or sellers
  • Monitor for typosquatting and lookalike domains so you can act before customers are harmed
  • Surface abusive domains used for support and refund scams so you can request takedowns
  • Provide evidence and reporting for domain abuse response and brand protection
  • Deliver continuous domain monitoring and human-led prioritization across your brand footprint

How it works

  1. 1

    Define your brand and key pages

    You provide your main site, checkout flows, and brand terms. We set up monitoring for lookalikes and phishing.

  2. 2

    Discover and prioritize

    We find domains that mimic your brand, checkout, or support. You get prioritized alerts with evidence.

  3. 3

    Evidence and takedown

    We build evidence packages. You submit to registrars and hosts using our workflows and track status.

  4. 4

    Track and report

    Use the dashboard and reports to show leadership and partners how you protect your brand and customers.

Frequently asked questions

  • Can you monitor marketplace seller names or brands?

    We focus on domain-level abuse (phishing, impersonation, typosquatting). Seller impersonation on marketplaces may involve platform policies; we can monitor external domains that misuse your brand or seller names.

  • How do you handle peak seasons (e.g. Black Friday)?

    We monitor year-round and can prioritize alerts during peak. Many clients increase review frequency during high-traffic periods so abuse is caught and escalated quickly.

  • Do you work with our brand protection or legal team?

    Yes. We provide evidence and workflows that legal and brand protection teams use for takedowns and enforcement. We do not provide legal advice; we support your team with data and process.

  • What about counterfeit or grey market domains?

    We detect domains that impersonate your brand or that may be used for counterfeit sales. Evidence can support enforcement; we do not enforce on your behalf.

  • Can we monitor multiple brands or regions?

    Yes. We support multiple brands and regions. You can filter the dashboard and reports by brand or geography.
