Description of required details

The following needs to be added in order to integrate:

API Key: Integration requires an API key from IPQS and can be found in the IPQS panel.

How to find the API key in IPQS:

  • Log in to your IPQS dashboard

  • Go to Settings & Account Management, then open Account Settings

  • Locate and copy your API Key for use in the integration setup

Fraud protection level:

Here, two options are provided:

1. Mark fraud and block: The conversion will be marked as fraudulent and blocked from the results.

2. Mark fraud and approve: Approve the conversion even if fraud is detected.

Min fraud score: Specify the IPQS score beyond which the conversion will be considered fraudulent.

Abuse velocity: IPQS defines 'abuse velocity' as the rate at which fraudulent activity occurs for your traffic. Based on the selected values, it will increase/decrease the number of fraud tests conducted.

Blocking options:

  1. Block VPN: block clicks and conversions from a VPN source.

  2. Block TOR: Block the traffic if the onion router is detected.

  3. Block Proxy: Block if a proxy is detected.

  4. Recent abuse: Block if recent abuse from the IP is detected.

Strictness: "Strictness” in IPQS refers to the level of scrutiny or the stringency of rules applied to evaluate and filter data or users for potential fraud. It is a measure of how aggressively IPQS's services identify and block potentially fraudulent or abusive behaviour.

Custom parameters: It provides the option to add a key-value pair in which trackier can send data to IPQS.

Eg: If you want trackier to send IP information stored in the system, then, in the value field, insert Trackier’s IP macro and IPQS’s parameter in Key.

Whitelist / black list publishers or campaigns: Select or block conversions from campaigns or publishers for which the IPQS integration will be applicable.
