CashoutGuard: fraud prevention for rewards, GPT, faucet, PTC and offerwall sites.

CashoutGuard vs IPinfo

Going beyond IP data

IPinfo is an IP data API used by many developers: location, network and, on paid plans, VPN, proxy, Tor and relay flags for every IP address.

The short version

IPinfo tells you where an IP is and what kind of network it belongs to. CashoutGuard adds the device, the linked accounts and the cashout, which is where farms on residential proxies and real phones get caught.

What IPinfo does well

  • Accurate IP location and network data, with a free plan for country-level lookups.
  • VPN, proxy, Tor and relay flags from the Core plan, about $26 a month billed yearly.
  • Residential proxy detection and VPN service names on the Max plan.

What rewards sites still need on top

  • It describes IP addresses only: no device, no account linking and no payout address checks.
  • The free plan has no VPN or proxy detection, and residential proxies need the Max plan ($1,960 a year).
  • It does not model offers, postbacks or cashouts, and there is no review queue.

Pick IPinfo if

  • You need IP location and network data across your product, not only fraud checks.
  • You already link accounts and review cashouts yourself.

Pick CashoutGuard if

  • Farmers get past your IP checks with residential proxies or real phones.
  • You see many accounts paying out to the same wallet or PayPal.
  • You want one decision per signup, offer click, conversion and cashout, with the reasons behind it.

Why rewards sites switch

Catches what IP data misses

When the IP looks like a home connection, a shared device, payout address or impossible offer speed still links the accounts.

Residential proxies on every plan

The clock, language and WebRTC checks that expose a home proxy are part of every score, the free plan included.

Still free for small sites

The free plan covers 1,000 monthly active users with every signal, so trying it costs nothing.

Frequently asked questions

Is CashoutGuard an IPinfo alternative?

For fraud on a rewards site, yes: it covers VPN, proxy, Tor and hosting checks and adds device, account and cashout signals. For general IP location data across a product, IPinfo is the specialist.

Can I keep IPinfo and add CashoutGuard?

Yes. Keep IPinfo for location data and send signup, offer click, conversion and cashout events to CashoutGuard for the fraud decision.

Does an IP lookup catch residential proxies?

Only partly, and on IPinfo only on the Max plan. Farms on residential proxies and real phones are linked by their devices, payout addresses and offer speed instead.

Will switching block my real users?

No. New sites start in shadow mode: every event is scored and explained, but the action stays allow until you switch to enforce. Most owners watch a week of results before they block anything.
