General FAQ
What is the best workflow using DPD?
A common workflow is: receive the order, check risk before shipment, review the signals, and then decide whether to proceed, verify, or hold the order for manual review.
Can I use DPD to reduce returns and refusals?
Yes. DPD is intended to help merchants reduce costly COD outcomes such as failed deliveries, refusals, and fraud-related losses by improving pre-shipment decisions.
Risk & Scoring
What does the risk score mean?
The risk score reflects behavioral and operational signals associated with a phone number or order context. It is intended to help merchants estimate risk, not to provide certainty.
How is the risk score calculated?
DPD analyzes available risk-relevant signals such as phone history, order outcomes, fraud indicators, and merchant feedback. The exact scoring logic is internal, but the output is designed to support practical decision-making.
Does DPD block orders automatically?
No. DPD does not block, approve, or reject orders automatically. The final decision always belongs to the merchant.
Can I trust the score 100%?
No system can guarantee perfect accuracy. The DPD score is a decision-support signal and should be used together with merchant judgment and internal review processes.
What is considered a high-risk score?
A high-risk score generally means the order shows stronger warning signals or behavioral patterns associated with failed deliveries, fraud, or abuse. The merchant should review the order more carefully before shipping.
What should I do when a score is high?
You may decide to verify the customer, request confirmation, review the order manually, or apply stricter internal checks before shipment. DPD is there to support that decision, not to make it for you.
Can a legitimate customer have a high risk score?
Yes. Risk scores are based on signals and patterns, not on identity or certainty. A high score does not prove fraud, which is why merchant judgment remains essential.
Why did this number get a high score?
A high score may result from one or more risk-related signals such as previous failed delivery behavior, suspicious patterns, or feedback associated with the available data. The platform is designed to provide risk context, not a personal accusation.
Does the score change over time?
Yes. Scores may change as new signals, outcomes, or merchant feedback become available over time.
What signals affect the score?
Signals may include phone-number-related history, previous order outcomes, fraud-related indicators, merchant feedback, and other operational behavior patterns relevant to COD risk.
Can merchants influence scores?
Merchant feedback may contribute to the quality of future risk intelligence where supported, but merchants should not expect to manually set or control scores directly.
Usage & Performance
Is DPD real-time?
DPD is designed to provide fast operational results based on the data available at the time of the check.
How fast are results?
Results are intended to be fast enough for operational use, although response time may vary depending on system status, plan limits, or integration context.
Can I check multiple orders at once?
Depending on your workflow and plan, batch or repeated checks may be supported. Availability may vary by feature and integration method.
Is there a daily usage limit?
Usage limits depend on your subscription plan and how access is configured for your account.
What happens if I exceed my limit?
If you reach your plan limit, access may be restricted until the next cycle or until you upgrade to a higher plan, depending on your subscription terms.
Does DPD slow down my checkout or system?
DPD is designed to support merchant operations without creating unnecessary friction. Integration performance depends on how the platform is connected to your workflow.
Integration & API
How do I install the DPD plugin?
Installation depends on the supported platform. In general, you install the plugin, connect your DPD account, and configure the integration according to your store setup.
How do I connect my store?
Store connection depends on the integration method. Supported plugins and APIs are designed to connect merchant systems to DPD so that order checks can be performed within the merchant workflow.
Is there an API available?
Yes. DPD provides API access for merchants and developers who need custom integrations or workflow automation.
Can I integrate DPD into a custom system?
Yes. Custom systems can connect to DPD through the API, subject to the supported integration structure and your plan.
What happens if the API is unavailable?
Temporary service interruption may affect API responses. Merchants should use reasonable fallback procedures when external services are unavailable.
Is there a test or sandbox environment?
Availability of test or sandbox access depends on the integration setup and product stage. Contact support if you need developer-oriented setup guidance.
Data & Privacy
What data does DPD use?
DPD uses risk-relevant operational data such as phone numbers, order outcomes, behavioral signals, and merchant feedback where applicable.
Does DPD store personal information?
DPD is designed to focus on behavioral risk signals and operational identifiers rather than exposing unnecessary personal identity information.
Does DPD expose customer identity?
No. DPD does not provide direct identity lookup functionality or expose personal identity details as part of the normal service workflow.
Does DPD share my data with other merchants?
DPD does not publicly expose merchant data or personal identity information. Risk intelligence is processed within the scope of the platform’s fraud-prevention purpose.
Who owns the data I submit?
Merchants remain responsible for the data they submit and for ensuring that they are legally entitled to collect and use that data within their workflows.
Is data encrypted and secured?
DPD is designed with security and controlled data handling in mind. Access controls, secure infrastructure practices, and abuse-prevention measures are part of the platform approach.
How long is data retained?
Retention depends on operational, security, fraud-prevention, and compliance needs. DPD applies a data-minimization approach and avoids unnecessary exposure of data.
Limitations
Can DPD guarantee fraud prevention?
No. DPD reduces risk exposure by providing better signals and decision support, but it does not guarantee fraud prevention.
Can the system make mistakes?
Yes. Like any risk-scoring system, DPD may produce false positives or false negatives depending on available data and operational context.
What types of fraud can DPD not detect?
DPD is designed to support COD fraud prevention and risk review, but no platform can detect every type of fraud or every edge case across all situations.
Should I rely only on DPD?
No. DPD should be used together with merchant judgment, operational verification, and internal procedures.
Can fraudsters bypass the system?
No fraud-prevention system is immune to adaptation or evasion. DPD aims to improve merchant decisions, not claim that fraud cannot evolve.
Intelligence & Feedback
Does more data improve accuracy?
In general, better signal quality and richer operational context can improve the quality of fraud intelligence over time.
Can merchants contribute feedback?
Yes. Merchant feedback can support platform improvement where such features are available and used within the intended workflow.
How does DPD learn from behavior?
DPD improves through continued analysis of behavioral signals, outcomes, and feedback patterns relevant to fraud prevention.
Does DPD adapt to new fraud patterns?
That is part of the platform’s long-term purpose. Fraud patterns evolve, and the platform is designed to improve as more operational insight becomes available.
