Anti-fraud— what it means in affiliate marketing
The systems that detect and block fraudulent traffic and conversions before they are paid for.
Every network runs one, and the honest affiliate meets it as false positives rather than as protection. Knowing which signals a given system reads — device, IP class, timing, conversion curve — is part of the job on both sides.
