making First Order shipping and billing address match

Is there any option to require the customers first order only allowed to ship to their billing address.

We have seen other companies do this and can stop a lot of fraud activity.

Re: making First Order shipping and billing address match

Ok, have figured out what changes are needed to implement this. Basically at the Step 1 of 3 Delivery Page in Checkout.

Need some code to check:

if customers orders > 0 (SHOW change shipping button)
else (disable change shipping button

Would appreciate any help with finding out the references to this. I know they can later change details say through paypal, but as long as it's confirmed is ok. And also GoogleCheckout seem to check most and approve so it's ok there.

Re: making First Order shipping and billing address match

Hi
Has this question been resolved yet? As we would like to implement the same system on our website for obvious security reasons.
Any help greatly appreciated!

I'm looking too, Dont need those scammers making bogus orders and then doing charge backs, at least with the confirmed address, it will minimize most of the fraud.

Re: making First Order shipping and billing address match

You can restric the billing to be the shipping with out adding any code.. all orders will be finalized with billing and shipping being the same..

In configuration > Maximum Values > set the Addressbook entries to value 1
