How long does it take to add BotRefund to your website?
Answer: Adding BotRefund to your site typically takes about one minute.
Prerequisites
- Access to edit the HTML of your website (e.g., CMS, theme files, or tag manager).
- A BotRefund account – you can create one instantly on the BotRefund site.
- Google or Meta ad accounts (required for refund negotiations).
Step‑by‑step implementation
- Visit the BotRefund website and click Create account. No credit card is needed.
- After confirming your email, you’ll be presented with a short JavaScript snippet.
- Copy the snippet.
- Paste the snippet into the
<head>section of every page you want to monitor (or add it via your tag manager). - Publish/save the changes and reload a page on your site.
Common mistake to avoid
Placing the script after the closing </head> tag or inside the body can delay detection and cause early traffic to be missed.
Verification
Log in to the BotRefund dashboard; you should see live traffic being analyzed within a few seconds. The “Active” status confirms the script is correctly installed.
How BotRefund can help
BotRefund continuously monitors click behavior, pointer movement, and other signals to identify non‑human traffic. When bots are detected, BotRefund gathers forensic evidence and negotiates refunds with Google and Meta on your behalf. The service works best for advertisers spending at least $10,000 per month on Google or Meta ads; smaller budgets may not qualify for the full refund process.
