How click fraud shows up on Pandora Ads

How click fraud shows up on Pandora Ads

Digital audio campaigns that drive clicks to your site attract bot and low-quality traffic that never converts, reducing the return on your audio spend.

When Pandora inventory is bought programmatically through a DSP, ClickPatrol's suspicious classification can be applied as an audience exclusion.

ClickPatrol runs on your website through Google Tag Manager and classifies every visitor as ClickPatrol_Legitimate or ClickPatrol_Suspicious, scoring 800+ data points per click.

You build a suspicious-traffic audience from that signal and exclude it from your Pandora Ads targeting, so your budget and optimisation focus on real, in-market people instead of bots, click farms and repeat offenders.

An independent layer of protection

ClickPatrol works on top of Pandora Ads's native filtering and catches the sophisticated invalid traffic those systems routinely miss.

The cost of click fraud adds up fast.

If 15% of your traffic is invalid, roughly €15 of every €100 you spend is wasted before a real prospect ever sees your ad. On a €10,000/month budget that is €1,500 going straight to bots, competitors and scrapers.

Every fake click ClickPatrol™ blocks keeps more budget available for real prospects who can actually convert.
