Stopping Bonus Abuse at Scale

Bonus-abuse farms cycle sign-up offers through thousands of synthetic identities, converting your acquisition budget into guaranteed losses.

What the attack looks like

Automation targeting sportsbooks is rarely a single bot. It is an operation: rotating proxies, realistic browser fingerprints, and pacing tuned to stay under naive rate limits. By the time the damage shows up in your dashboards, the operator has already moved on.

Why generic defenses fall short

Simple rate limits and CAPTCHA walls catch careless scripts and punish real bettors. Modern bot operations solve challenges in bulk through farms and spread requests across thousands of addresses.

How OddsArmor stops it

OddsArmor layers behavioral analysis, device fingerprinting, and network intelligence into a single risk score per session. Decisions happen before the request reaches your application, and scores adapt as operators change tactics. You keep margin on every market; bettors never notice.

Start with the audit

The free bot-traffic audit shows what share of your traffic is automated, where it concentrates, and what it costs you. It takes minutes to start and runs read-only against your logs or tags.
