Why saas is a fraud target
Competitor clicks
Bot traffic
VPN and proxy abuse
SaaS companies pay premium CPCs for high-intent keywords like "CRM software" or "project management tool," making every wasted click disproportionately expensive. Competitor click fraud is rampant in saturated SaaS categories where rivals have a direct financial incentive to exhaust each other's daily budgets before legitimate buyers search.
Bot traffic skews free trial signups and demo request data, causing growth teams to misattribute pipeline to channels that never generated a real prospect. VPN and proxy abuse further corrupts geo-targeting, routing fraudulent clicks through regions that appear to be high-value enterprise markets.

“During our Tapper trial for INFINITI, we uncovered low-quality traffic that wasn't visible inside the platforms. Removing it delivered a 14% uplift in conversions and an 11.4% reduction in CPA - a meaningful efficiency gain for INFINITI's 2026 growth plans.”

“With Tapper's protection we were able to identify and block invalid clicks in real time. The impact was immediate as our cost per acquisition dropped by 30% and ROAS improved significantly. More importantly, Tapper gives us the confidence that our campaigns are reaching genuine customers, which makes it truly invaluable.”
Dimitris Bakas
Senior Performance Marketing, Public Group
“We started using Tapper to get better visibility on where our clicks were coming from, and ended up cutting wasted spend by over 12%. The performance uplift was clear, and for the first time, we could trust the numbers we were seeing. It's a total game-changer for campaign integrity.”
Stuart Parkin

“Tapper's blocking technology purifies our paid media traffic which roughly equates to a 36x return against its subscription costs. It's certainly one of the easiest-to-implement tools in our entire marketing stack.”
Reno Mindemann
Head of Growth, Kama Capital
“We've been using Tapper for over a year now, and it has become a core part of how we run paid media. Invalid traffic was always something we knew existed but couldn't really act on. Tapper changed that. We're now saving up to $50K per year, and on PureSquare specifically, we saw around a 20% decrease in CPA. Based on these results, we decided to roll it out across other ventures under Disrupt as well.”
