Traffic-quality filter before checkout
Bot traffic and junk referrers reach your payment page, wasting acquiring fees and polluting conversion data. Blocking at the ad network is not always enough.
What this is
NitroCart includes a built-in Traffic Filter that gates checkout by source quality. Configure allowed networks and referrers in Checkout → Filter settings before visitors see the payment URL.
How it works in NitroCart
- Checkout → Filter settings: whitelist ad networks, block suspicious referrers.
- Pre-checkout gate: low-quality visits stop before the payment redirect.
- Traffic → Visitors: verify which sources were filtered vs allowed.
- Live tuning: adjust rules without redeploying the engine.
Who it is for
- Media buyers on aggressive networks who see junk in checkout logs.
- Affiliates protecting acquiring accounts from bot swarms.
- Operators running coupon tests who need clean conversion metrics.
Workflow
- Review Traffic → Visitors for sources hitting checkout.
- Open Checkout → Filter settings and set allowed networks.
- Block referrers that never convert but consume payment attempts.
- Run a small test budget and watch filtered vs passed counts.
- Tighten rules before scaling spend on the winning angle.
FAQ
Does the filter replace ad network blocklists?
It is a second line at checkout — combine both for best results.
Can legitimate users get blocked?
Start permissive, review Visitors, then tighten; UTMs help distinguish campaigns.
Works on Tickets format?
Yes — filter applies before any checkout redirect across all formats.
