Click Spamming

Generating a high volume of clicks that are often automated or forced without genuine user intent to claim commission credit for traffic that never had real purchase intent.

Suspicious Traffic

High volumes of clicks without corresponding conversions, automated bot traffic, or evidence of cookie-stuffing.

Ad Hijacking / Trademark (TM) Bidding

Unauthorized bidding on your brand's trademarked keywords or replacing your brand's search ads with their tracking links.

Impersonation

Operating unauthorized websites, social profiles, or assets pretending to represent your brand or another verified entity.

Misrepresentation

Promoting false claims, fake pricing, or outdated product descriptions that mislead customers.

Offer & Coupon Abuse

Sharing exclusive, expired, or fake promo codes without authorization, resulting in cart abandonment and margin loss.

Fake Signups / Leads

Filling out lead generation or subscription forms with fraudulent, stolen, or fake contact details to earn commissions.

Inappropriate Content

Promoting the brand alongside content that is offensive, illegal, adult, contains hate-speech, or is highly controversial.

Stand Down Violation

Specific to Extension Partners: the extension fires or pops up and promotes its own offer even though another affiliate's click already exists in the session, overriding that partner's rightful attribution.

Cookie Stuffing / Attribution Fraud

Dropping tracking cookies on a user's browser with no genuine click or interaction at all (e.g., forced pixels, hidden iframes), falsely claiming credit for conversions the partner had no real role in.

Conversion Spoofing / Fake Actions

Fabricating or manipulating conversion events such as fake orders, tampered postbacks, replayed data to trigger commission payouts that shouldn't exist.

Other

Any other breach of contract, compliance standard, or policy not covered by the above options.
