Following the recent bans on Meta, we upgraded the shield protection
We know how frustrating it is when links get shadowbanned or flagged for no reason.
That’s why we rebuilt Shield Protection from the ground up.
After 18 months of research, testing, and real-world data, you now have an advanced security system designed to keep your links safer than ever while remaining compliant.
What is the shield protection?
Shield Protection is an advanced security layer for your links.
It automatically detects and blocks suspicious traffic before it reaches your page.
This means:
Bots are filtered out.
Suspicious behavior (e.g., low trust score VPNs, AI agents, compromised Wi-Fi networks) is blocked.
Only valid, trustworthy traffic reaches your content.
On average, 6% to 10% of traffic is filtered:
~5% are bots or automated crawlers.
~5% are suspicious patterns that almost never convert.
Think of it as Cloudflare-style protection, built directly into your links.
What’s new?
Our first version of Shield Protection was intentionally focused on masking and redirection.
But platforms have evolved, and so have we.
This updated version brings:
Stronger detection models for bots, AI agents and suspicious activity.
Optimized compliance with social platforms’ browsing policies.
Better filtering to protect your analytics and ensure stable traffic performance.
It’s an evolution of our original system, rebuilt for long-term stability.
Why it matters for creators?
Protects your analytics → You only see real users, not noise.
Keeps your links safer → Helps reduce risks of shadowbans or restrictions.
Future-proof → Built to adapt to platform changes.
Losing 2–5% of suspicious visitors is nothing compared to losing your whole account.
Security before conversion.
Do I need to do anything?
By default, Shield Protection is available on all links.
You can turn it on or off at any time but we strongly recommend keeping it enabled, especially if you share links on social platforms that are strict.
Will it affect my visitors?
For real people → No. The system works invisibly and won’t interrupt normal browsing.
For bots, crawlers, or flagged traffic → Yes, they’ll be blocked before reaching your page.
In rare cases, 2–5% of visitors may be filtered, but these are usually suspicious sessions that almost never convert.
How to activate Shield Protection?
Go to your link settings.
Open Link Type.

FAQ
Will Shield Protection block my real customers?
Rarely. These are bots, spams, or suspicious visitors that almost never convert. By filtering them, your analytics are more accurate, your reach is safer, and your content stays live longer. Think of it as cutting noise, keeping only real and valuable traffic.
Is this mandatory?
No. You can turn it on/off anytime. But we strongly recommend it if you share links on social platforms that are strict.
Does this slow down my link?
No. Everything runs invisibly in the background.
Why should I trust this?
Because it’s built on 18 months of real-world data and optimized for today’s platform rules.
