Red Points covers marketplaces. Recon follows the Shopify customer path.

One product is built around cross-channel intellectual-property enforcement. The other monitors the email, storefront, and domain signals around a Shopify brand.

Five questions decide this, not a feature count.

01

Are marketplaces, social platforms or executives part of the problem?

Red Points is built around marketplace and listing abuse. Recon does not look at marketplaces at all.

If yes → Red Points
02

Do you need someone else to file and chase the takedown?

Red Points files removals at volume. Recon prepares one notice at a time and leaves the sending to you.

If yes → Red Points
03

Does the inbox matter as much as the storefront?

Someone can email your customers as you. Recon checks the records that decide whether a spoofed order confirmation is delivered. Red Points does not read them.

If yes → Recon
04

Is the scope one Shopify brand rather than a portfolio?

Enterprise platforms are priced and staffed for portfolios. One store rarely justifies the retainer.

If yes → Recon
05

Do you need a published price before a sales call?

Red Points quotes on scope. Recon is $50 a month after a free scan.

If yes → Recon

Red Points and Recon questions

Is Recon a replacement for Red Points?

Not for marketplace enforcement. Red Points offers marketplace and broader brand-abuse coverage, with enforcement included in its plans. Recon is a focused option for Shopify brands concerned with domains, store clones, email identity, and browser trust.

Does Red Points offer self-service pricing?

Red Points publishes a self-service configuration for certain marketplace and fake-website coverage, while other plans use tailored pricing. Check the current scope directly because channels and add-ons vary.

Does Recon monitor Amazon or eBay?

No. Recon does not monitor marketplace listings. It watches the customer-facing trust around a Shopify brand and prepares evidence for domain or storefront abuse reports.

Who sends enforcement requests with Recon?

The merchant does. Recon prepares the finding, evidence, and reporting template for review.

Recon keeps watch. You run your store.
