The problem

Unchecked fraud is eating your budget

Fake accounts, bought followers, forged screenshots, and bot farms are siphoning campaign budgets across every major platform.

Without QareShield
Every payout is a gamble
  • ✗Creators submit screenshots that never happened
  • ✗Bot farms complete thousands of actions in seconds
  • ✗One person runs 10 accounts to collect 10x payouts
  • ✗Fake follower counts inflate campaign reach numbers
  • ✗VPNs and disposable accounts evade basic checks
  • ✗You discover fraud after payouts are already gone
With QareShield
Every payout is verified
  • ✓AI-powered proof analysis catches edited screenshots
  • ✓Velocity checks flag impossible action timing
  • ✓Device graph links accounts sharing hardware
  • ✓Audience quality scoring exposes fake follower counts
  • ✓IP intelligence blocks VPNs and proxy networks
  • ✓Payout gate stops fraud before money moves
How it works

Three calls.
Complete protection.

Integrate QareShield at the three critical moments in every campaign creator lifecycle.

01
🪪
Creator onboards
Call /identity/verify when a creator joins your platform. Multi-layer checks: social profile authenticity, device fingerprinting, IP reputation, geo-consistency, and liveness + ID document matching on Pro+.
02
✅
Creator completes action
Call /engagement/verify when they submit proof. Direct platform API confirmation where possible, AI screenshot analysis, task timing checks, and velocity anomaly detection.
03
💸
Payout is requested
Call /payout/gate before releasing any payment. Returns approve, review, or block with a full signal breakdown and 48h hold on suspicious payouts.
