Contingency ad fraud refund recovery for Performance Max campaigns

($0 upfront, zero monthly software fees—we only earn when Google credits your account)

If your session recordings in Clarity or Hotjar show PMax clicks bouncing in seconds, cursor moving like a bot, or submitting fake leads, it’s bots clicking your ads. When Smart Bidding runs out of Google.com searchers, it automatically diverts your budget into third-party Search Partner sites and mobile apps, where up to 70% of placements use automated bots for click-revenue arbitrage.

Traditional click fraud prevention software operates on an expensive SaaS subscription model: you pay hundreds or thousands of dollars every month regardless of whether the software stops bots or recovers a single dollar. Even worse, on Performance Max, traditional tools don’t work because Google does not support IP blocking. BotRefund revolutionized ad fraud protection with a pure 100% contingency model: we install for free, monitor for free, and only earn a percentage when cash refunds hit your Google billing ledger.

BotRefund detects bot clicks on PMax and gets you refunded by Google

Zero upfront cost, zero monthly subscriptions, and zero financial risk. We align our success completely with your Google Ads cash recovery.

3 reasons why contingency recovery outperforms monthly SaaS tools

01

Aligned incentives: we only make money when you get real cash back

SaaS click fraud vendors get paid whether their software works or not. BotRefund only gets paid when the Google Ad Traffic Quality & Billing team approves your dispute and deposits credits into your account.

Our business model requires us to deliver actual financial recovery, not just dashboards.
02

No software bloat or wasted overhead on black-box PMax campaigns

Legacy fraud tools charge you per click to maintain useless 500-IP blocklists that Google completely ignores on PMax. With BotRefund, you never pay for useless features or ineffective blockers.

Stop paying monthly software subscriptions for tools that cannot block bots on PMax.
03

Free real-time pixel suppression included at zero additional cost

In addition to recovering past ad spend, BotRefund silences Google conversion pixels in real time when bots hit your landing pages. This protects your Smart Bidding model completely free of charge.

Pixel protection and smart bidding shielding are included at zero cost.

How our 100% contingency recovery process works

Follow these direct in-account steps to verify invalid traffic volumes and determine your refundable ad spend balance.

STEP 1

Install our lightweight 50ms client script

Add one line of code to your website or Google Tag Manager. Setup takes under 3 minutes with zero configuration or impact on site speed.

STEP 2

Forensic telemetry collection & dossier compilation

Our engine passively monitors incoming traffic, isolates automated bot GCLIDs, extracts TLS JA4 handshakes, and compiles certified Policy 11182074 dossiers.

STEP 3

Cash credit deposition into your Google Ads ledger

Google billing reviews the submission and credits your account. We invoice our contingency fee only after the cash credit is verified in your Google billing summary.

Deterministic forensic detection on-site combined with certified billing recovery from Google Ads.

Proven Results

83% of our Google refund disputes are approved

Marketers frequently post on Reddit that Google Ads customer support refuses to issue refunds for junk traffic. That is because advertisers submit generic dispute tickets stating "we want our money back from bad sites."

Google billing investigators dismiss subjective placement complaints. However, when BotRefund submits cryptographic TLS JA4 handshakes, automated Chrome DevTools hooks, and verified GCLID microsecond logs proving non-human execution, investigators must approve credits under official Google Policy 11182074.

Zero False Positives

99% forensic accuracy without relying on useless IP blocklists

Traditional click fraud software tries to block IP addresses. But Google doesn't allow IP exclusions in Performance Max campaigns, and modern bot syndicates rotate through millions of residential mobile IP proxies anyway.

BotRefund operates inside the client browser. We evaluate 180+ behavioral and cryptographic signals—including sub-millisecond mouse tremor entropy, CDP automation hooks, WebGL shaders, and keypress timing—instantly isolating automated form scripts without blocking real human prospects.

Zero Human Interference 180+ Behavioral signals • Real buyers unaffected
Smart Bidding Shield

Real-time pixel suppression stops the bot feedback loop

When automated bots hit your site from junk websites, any incidental trigger or micro-conversion will corrupt your Smart Bidding model. If Google registers a success signal, it will double down on buying more clicks from that exact publisher network.

BotRefund detects synthetic telemetry in under 50ms and silently suppresses the Google Ads conversion pixel. The spam submission never registers with Google's machine learning, protecting your Smart Bidding model and driving down your true Customer Acquisition Cost.

Frictionless Experience

Zero CAPTCHA friction for your high-value human buyers

Putting annoying CAPTCHA checkboxes or puzzle challenges on your landing page destroys legitimate conversion rates. Real executives and buyers will bounce immediately, while automated botnets solve CAPTCHAs in seconds using automated solving services.

BotRefund operates entirely in the background. Real prospects experience a completely frictionless, fast-loading form submission, while automated scraping bots are cataloged and queued for billing recovery.
