ClickGuardian

ClickGuardian is click fraud protection software for businesses running paid advertising on Google Ads and Microsoft Ads. We block invalid clicks from bots, click farms, VPN traffic and competitor sabotage before they drain your daily budget. The problem: every PPC campaign loses a chunk of its budget to fraudulent clicks. Bots and competitors clicking your ads cost real money but never convert. Google and Microsoft refund only a fraction of what their automated systems catch, and most of the bad traffic slips through. How ClickGuardian works: we monitor every click on your Google Ads and Microsoft Ads campaigns in real time. Our detection engine uses IP analysis, device fingerprinting, VPN and data centre detection, behavioural pattern signals, click farm signatures and proprietary bot identification. When fraudulent traffic is detected, the offending IP is automatically added to your campaign exclusion lists so the same source cannot waste your budget twice. What makes ClickGuardian different: - $49/month starting price, about half what ClickCease and ClickGUARD charge - No annual contract, monthly billing, cancel any time - Real-time blocking, not next-day reporting - Native Google Ads and Microsoft Ads support in every plan (most competitors charge extra for Microsoft Ads) - 7-day free trial with the full feature set - Five-minute setup with your existing Google or Microsoft Ads account - Detailed reporting showing what was blocked and how much ad budget was saved Who it's for: PPC agencies managing client ad spend, ecommerce and DTC brands running their own paid advertising, affiliate and lead-generation marketers buying paid traffic at scale, and in-house marketing teams tired of watching ad budget evaporate to invalid clicks. We recently completed a full rebuild of the platform on a new backend called Verideon, delivering significantly faster detection, cleaner reporting and a redesigned dashboard. Meta Ads support is rolling out summer 2026. Trusted by 2,000+ businesses worldwide. Start your 7-day free trial at clickguardian.ai.
