## Description

Ensure the security of your WooCommerce store with Checkout Guard, a powerful plugin
designed to fortify your checkout process. Checkout Guard offers a range of features
to protect your online store from spam and unwanted orders.

### Key Features:

#### 1. Email Restrictions:

Easily restrict checkout for specific emails and email domains. Keep out unwanted
traffic and enhance the security of your online transactions.

#### 2. Country-Based Restrictions:

Implement checkout restrictions based on user billing country. Tailor your store’s
accessibility and ensure a smoother shopping experience for your targeted audience.

#### 3. IP Address Blocking:

Take control of your store’s security by restricting checkout for specific IP addresses.
Safeguard against malicious activity and maintain a secure online environment.

#### 4. Total Cost Range Restrictions:

Fine-tune your order regulations by restricting checkout for orders within a specified
total cost range. Customize the limits to align with your store’s pricing policies.

**Important:** This plugin is an extension of the [WooCommerce](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/)
plugin, and it cannot function independently.
