One question per post, answered in the first line. There’s a good chance you found this page because we wrote the answer instead of burying it. That’s the same thing we build into products for other businesses. If a question needs a whole document behind it, it goes in research instead.
Software
A CSV to QBO converter turns the spreadsheet your bank exports into the .QBO file QuickBooks imports. Check where it converts before you use one: most upload your statement to a server, and the work does not require it.
Software
Download a .QBO file from your bank, then in QuickBooks Desktop choose Banking, Bank Feeds, Import Web Connect Files, and pick the account. Desktop accepts .QBO only, so a QFX, a QIF or a plain spreadsheet will not go in.
Software
A QFX file is a bank statement in Quicken’s own format, and Quicken is what opens it. It’s an OFX file with extra fields showing the bank paid Intuit a license fee, which is why Quicken rejects some.

There’s no single limit. Shopify’s own threshold reaches you first: a rate of 1.5 percent or higher over 90 days can enroll you in a dispute resolution program. That holds a 10 percent reserve back from your payouts. Visa and Mastercard set separate thresholds above it.
Software
Your Google review QR code is free, and Google already made it. Open your Business Profile on a computer, go to Read Reviews, then Get more reviews, and save the image. It is a plain code, so the link inside it can never be changed and nothing counts the scans.
Software
A QR code menu for restaurants should point at a page on your own website. Not a PDF, and not a file on a cloud drive. Use a code you can repoint, so a price change means editing the page instead of reprinting every table tent. Then set that same address as the menu link on your Google profile.

Shopify bot protection is four separate things, and only one of them touches checkout. The firewall and hCaptcha are already on. The checkout feature needs a Plus plan and was built for auto-checkout bots. Bot filtering cleans up your reports without blocking anybody.
Software
QR code tracking counts scans, not people. You get how many, roughly when, roughly where, and on what kind of device. You don’t get a name, an email, or anything that identifies who scanned. A plain printed code can’t be tracked at all, because there’s nothing in the middle to count.
Software
Check whether other QR codes scan on the same phone first. If none of them do, the problem is the phone and not your code. If only yours fails, the fault is either the printed pattern or the destination it points at. The pattern can’t be changed after printing. The destination usually can.
Ecommerce
In the United States it’s $15, charged by the bank rather than by Shopify, and the amount varies by country. It comes back if you win the dispute. The disputed amount is taken as well, out of your next payout, and that part only returns if you win.

Shopify’s Fraud Filter app is gone. Its App Store page now says it is not currently available. What replaced it is split in two. Fraud Control has checkout rules that block a checkout before it becomes an order. Shopify Flow acts after the order exists.
Software
Yes, two ways, and they give you very different things. Asked on its own, Claude writes a little code and hands back an image that’s frozen the moment it’s made. Connected to a QR service through MCP, it makes a real code in an account you own, which you can repoint and count later.
Ecommerce
A card testing attack is a bot running stolen card numbers through your checkout to find the ones that still work. It shows up as a burst of small orders and declined payments, often under made-up names and email addresses.
Software
A static QR code has the destination encoded in the pattern itself, so it can never be changed. A dynamic one encodes a short redirect, so the printed squares stay the same while the destination changes. Static lasts forever with no account. Dynamic depends on whoever runs the redirect.
Ecommerce
A high risk of fraud flag is a score Shopify assigns after the order exists and the card has already been charged. It reviews a payment that already went through. The score is built from the address, card and location checks Shopify lists on the order.
Ecommerce
Shopify chargeback protection is free through Shopify Protect. It covers only fraudulent and unrecognized chargebacks, on Shop Pay orders from United States stores, fulfilled within seven days with tracking. Items reported as not received or not as described are not covered.
