What Do We Protect Campaigns From? I TrafficGuard
Unmasking the Affiliate Frauds That Drain Your Spend
Attribution Hijacking
Affiliates steal credit with click injection or last-second redirects, paying commissions for sales they didn’t drive.
Cookie Stuffing
Cookies drop without real engagement, tricking your system into paying for fake conversions. This bloats your customer acquisition cost and hides true channel performance.
Incentivised Traffic
Sure, conversions happen, but these users rarely stick around, leaving you paying for low-value customers.
Fake Leads & Bot Activity
Automated scripts generate bogus installs and signups that add zero business value.
Misleading Creative
Ads or landing pages that misrepresent your offer bring fake or non-compliant traffic, damaging brand trust and compliance.
Non-Compliant Media Buying
Partners running paid traffic from banned geos or sources risk your programme’s reputation and compliance.

Affiliate marketing is vulnerable to issues like attribution hijacking, cookie stuffing, and incentivised traffic that doesn’t deliver long-term value. Even with platform-level checks, many of these tactics still slip through. TrafficGuard gives you visibility into the full user journey so you can reward partners based on genuine contribution, not manipulation.
We detect a wide range, including click injection, non-compliant tracking, and installs that don’t originate from the affiliate but still get attributed to them. We also flag low-value, incentivised conversions that may technically be valid, but offer little to no customer lifetime value.
In most cases, yes. We typically find that 5–10% of affiliate-attributed conversions don’t hold up when the data is analysed. By cutting those out, you reduce CAC and reinvest into the partners and placements that are actually driving incremental growth.
Right now, our affiliate solution is integrated with Impact. We’re expanding to other platforms, and in most cases, setup is simple. All we need is access to the click via tracking templates and the conversion via your AMP’s API.
Most networks filter after the fact and don’t show you much detail. TrafficGuard analyses the entire funnel in real time, across affiliate, paid social, and organic traffic, giving you the full picture. It’s about protecting your budget before the payout happens.
