When to Force-Approve an Order Generally speaking, we do not recommend force-approving orders. Bolt’s fraud detection engine is highly sophisticated. It collects numerous data points on each order to determine whether the activity is fraudulent. Additionally, part of the reason you’ve purchased our product is so that you don’t have to worry about reviewing orders. However, force approval may be appropriate in the event that you’ve had personal contact with the customer who was rejected (for example, an in-person visit) and feel entirely confident that the order is legitimate. Otherwise, we recommend keeping the order in a rejected state. How to Force-Approve an Order Log into the Bolt Merchant Dashboard. Select Transactions.
