Fraud Traffic Detection

Invalid traffic is filtered before anyone is paid

Every impression enters a verification queue. Bots, data-centre IPs, headless browsers and refresh bursts are flagged and excluded from earnings and billing.

Layered invalid traffic protection
Why it matters

Clean traffic keeps buyers bidding

When buyers trust the inventory, they keep bidding on it. Filtering invalid traffic early protects your earnings over time and keeps payouts based on real people.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Will my real visitors be blocked?

The checks target automated and server traffic. If you think real users are flagged, contact support with the site and dates.

Why was my site limited?

New or unusual traffic patterns can be limited while they are reviewed. Buying traffic or using bots leads to removal.

  1. Request checks

    Server networks and bot user agents are checked as the ad request arrives.

  2. Verification queue

    Impressions are held for a short time and re-checked for unusual patterns.

  3. Earnings decision

    Valid impressions count toward earnings; invalid ones are excluded from earnings and billing.

  4. Site review

    Sites with repeated invalid traffic can be limited or removed.
