What is affiliate fraud and why is it getting worse?
Affiliate fraud is growing just as fast as the affiliate marketing industry itself. With over $10 billion in U.S. affiliate spend, the space is a magnet for fraudsters looking to siphon commissions through fake clicks, cookie stuffing, and stolen credit card schemes.
What makes it harder? The evolution of bots and fraud farms that bypass basic protections, making it nearly impossible for traditional affiliate fraud detection tools to keep up. And since many affiliate programs pay out quickly, companies often don’t realize they’ve been hit with affiliate program fraud until it’s too late.
Affiliate program fraud doesn’t just drain budgets—it corrupts performance data, alienates trusted partners, and leads to serious revenue losses.
If your affiliate program doesn’t have affiliate fraud protection built in, you’re already at risk. In fact, Anura data shows some programs suffer from a 45% fraud rate. That’s nearly half of your budget potentially wasted.
