Use Case

Detect Fraudulent Affiliate Leads

Affiliate programs are a prime target for lead fraud. Incentivized submitters, bot farms, and recycled data inflate your costs while delivering zero value. TrafficValidator catches affiliate fraud at the lead level.

The Problem

  • Affiliates use bots and click farms to generate fake leads and earn commissions
  • Incentivized submitters use disposable emails and fake information for rewards
  • Recycled and aged leads are submitted as fresh, violating your program terms
  • You pay commissions on volume with no visibility into actual lead quality

The Solution

  • Score every affiliate-sourced lead in real-time before it's accepted and commissions are paid
  • Detect patterns: same device submitting across multiple affiliates, sequential email addresses, velocity spikes
  • Email and phone validation catches disposable, undeliverable, and recycled contact information
  • Per-affiliate quality dashboards let you see which partners deliver real leads vs fraud
  • Set minimum quality thresholds — only pay commissions on leads that pass validation
