The Big Problem

What Sports Betting Marketers Face

From duplicate clicks to bot activity, invalid traffic quietly drains ad budgets and distorts campaign performance. Here are three of the biggest issues we uncover across sportsbook campaigns.

Existing Customer Clicks

Returning users are clicking branded ads just to log in, not to convert.

Bot Clicks

At least 40% of traffic is bots, wasting budget with no intent to convert.

Low-value Clicks

Non-genuine clicks from low-intent users are skewing campaign data.
