Don't let bots take your travel advertising budget for a ride
The travel industry has a $127 billion ad fraud problem. Bots and bad actors are draining ad budgets and contributing to a performance-killing rise in invalid advertising traffic.
First-class results with TrafficGuard
TrafficGuard fully protects you against the most common threats facing travel advertising budgets, like invalid app installs and loyalty programme scams. With clean, valid traffic, you can enjoy increased conversions and an optimised ad spend. Travel and tourism advertisers are impacted by ad fraud at higher rates than most industries - but why? Some of the factors contributing to the industry’s particular vulnerability include:
Use of Third-Party Online Travel Agencies (OTAs):
The travel industry has a multitude of authorised and unauthorised third-party OTAs that scrape data from airlines and hotel databases. These OTAs sell data on behalf of airlines and rentals, creating opportunities for bots to exploit and generate invalid traffic.
High-Value Loyalty Programmes:
Bad bots target loyalty programmes to conduct account takeover attacks, steal points or miles, and engage in fraudulent redemptions. The value associated with loyalty programmes makes them an appealing target for bad bot activity.
App Usage and Mobile Experiences:
Many travel vendors rely on apps and mobile experiences to engage with their target customers. However, this reliance on app installations makes them more vulnerable to receiving low-quality traffic and misattributed downloads, leading to skewed analytics and ineffective advertising costs.
