Stop fake sign-ups and bonus abuse

See which new accounts come from servers, VPNs and proxy networks before you give out a bonus or a free trial.

The problem

One person opens dozens of accounts to collect a sign-up bonus or restart a free trial. Each account looks new, but the addresses behind them give the game away: cloud servers, VPN exits and rotating residential proxies.

What you get for each address

• What kind of network the address is on: home, mobile, business, cloud or hosting
• Whether it is a known anonymizer or a cloud range
• VPN and residential proxy detection, with how many services agree
• Six fraud scores side by side

A rule to start with

if card.network.type in ("cloud", "hosting") or fraud.known:
    ask for phone verification
if detected_by("residential") >= 2:
    hold the bonus until the first payment

An example to adapt, not a threshold we recommend. Every field is in the API reference.
