Is TrafficShop traffic real?
How to check TrafficShop traffic quality: every visit scored 0–100 and pinned to the pop / pop-under sub-source that sent it — worst first, with the evidence to act on.
site/domain in TrafficShopPull {site_id}/{domain} from S2S/tracker stats, then remove those domains from the campaign's domain targeting (or feed them to the account manager / auto-blacklister) so the campaign stops buying from those publisher sites.
ValidVisit reports the device, OS, browser — down to the version — plus the language and ISP behind every flagged visit, and TrafficShop supports OS, browser, language, device type and connection type targeting. The segments we flag are segments you can exclude.
How invalid traffic shows up on TrafficShop.
TrafficShop is a pop / pop-under channel — exactly where invalid traffic concentrates. See which TrafficShop publishers, placements and sub-sources send real clicks versus bots, attributed via TrafficShop’s own tracking tokens and scored 0–100 per source.
Pinpoint the bot publishers & placements in TrafficShop.
TrafficShop itself isn't the problem — bots and invalid traffic concentrate in a handful of its sub-sources: the publisher, site or zone, and the placement or widget within it. So we roll the score up by those TrafficShop tokens, not by creative (which says nothing about whether a click was human).
TrafficShop traffic scored 0–100 per sub-source, worst first — down to the placement you buy.

How the detection works.
Data points → one score
Every visit is weighed against more than a hundred independent data points and reduced to a single, sortable 0–100 quality score.
Many angles, combined
Each data point is combined rather than checked in isolation, so a genuine human almost never trips enough of them to be flagged — and bots that beat one rarely beat the rest.
Proprietary, not a black box
The detection model is ours and stays that way. What you get is a clear verdict on every visit — not a single brittle rule you can game, and not an unexplained number you can't act on.
Pinned to the source
Every verdict maps to the campaign, publisher and placement that sent the click — so you know exactly which source to cut.
TrafficShop traffic quality, answered.
How does ValidVisit detect invalid TrafficShop traffic?+
Every TrafficShop click is weighed against 100+ independent data points spanning the network it came from, the device behind it and how the visitor behaves — combined into a single 0–100 quality score so real humans pass and bots stand out.
Can I see which TrafficShop publishers send bots?+
Yes. Using TrafficShop's own tracking tokens, ValidVisit attributes each scored click to the publisher, placement and sub-source, so invalid traffic is pinned to the exact sub-source — which you can then exclude manually in TrafficShop.
Does it require a funnel hop on my TrafficShop links?+
No. Detection runs from one lightweight script — no extra hop, no link rewriting, no change to your TrafficShop destination URLs.
