ProtectPPC
ProtectPPC provides click fraud protection for PPC campaigns, detecting suspicious clicks in real time and blocking them automatically.
What ProtectPPC is
ProtectPPC provides click fraud protection for PPC campaigns, detecting suspicious clicks in real time and blocking them automatically. Its analysis takes under 50 ms per click and uses more than 10 signals, including IP reputation, device fingerprints, behavior such as mouse movement and scrolling, and geographic anomalies. Google Ads integration automates IP exclusions and manages the 500-IP limit with TTL rotation and CIDR aggregation. Microsoft Ads provides a paste-ready list of the top 100 IPs and change alerts, but applying the list is manual. Meta support offers quality scoring and audience-exclusion workflows; it does not provide IP-level blocking. A detailed click log can be exported as CSV for analysis or refund claims. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial includes Pro features and requires no credit card. Subscriptions have a 30-day money-back guarantee and can be canceled anytime without a contract or fee.
