Why Use Anti-Detect Browsers in Gambling

Gambling is a vertical market in affiliate marketing that promotes online casinos, poker, and slots. In this niche, webmasters collaborate with affiliate networks that act as intermediaries between the webmaster and the advertiser.

An affiliate marketer directs traffic to advertised offers and gets paid for the results of the ad campaign. The actual payouts depend on how effectively the ad is launched and how many leads it brings to the advertiser.

Anti-detect browsers help webmasters run ad campaigns more efficiently by bypassing blocks, protecting data, and creating ad accounts to manage traffic.

How Anti-Detect Browsers Work

An anti-detect browser is a tool that allows creating an unlimited number of accounts to work on any platform. Using such browsers, you can mask and spoof information used by websites to identify users.
An anti-detect browser spoofs:
  • Information about the browser and operating system, system parameter data;
  • The user's IP address;
  • Timezone, language settings, installed browser extensions and plugins;
  • Cookies analyzed by websites that increase account trust, and other parameters.

Bypassing Restrictions and Blocks

The main task of an anti-detect browser is fingerprint spoofing. In Octo Browser fingerprint management is implemented at the level of its Chromium kernel, which protects users from platforms initiating additional checks for potential fingerprint spoofing. Octo profiles successfully pass popular checkers, such as Pixelscan, Whoer, and Browserleaks without errors. Additionally, Octo continuously researches anti-fraud systems, helping protect webmasters from potential blocks and bans. Prompt and regular kernel updates and research help Octo users blend in with other Internet users, reducing the chances of services detecting the webmaster and their overlapping accounts.

Risks Associated with Using an Anti-Detect Browser in Gambling

Most often, affiliate marketers face bans due to using poor-quality proxies. Octo Browser offers a built-in checker that we recommend to run before each profile launch. You can also consult our blog article on checking proxy reliability.

Additionally, platforms might ban Octo profiles if users configure the digital fingerprint incorrectly. In general, we recommend choosing the same operating system as on the device you’re using, not changing the user agent manually, and not altering hardware noise settings. These recommendations fit most platforms, but ideal settings for a specific service can only be found through trial and error.

Ensuring Compliance with Legislation and License Rules When Using an Anti-Detect Browser

Rules When Using an Anti-Detect BrowserThe Octo Browser website has a detailed user agreement, terms of use, and privacy policy. All potential Octo clients agree to abide by these regulations before using the browser. The Octo Team constantly researches the platform restrictions to help users create accounts without issues.

How to Safely Use an Anti-Detect Browser in a Team?

  • One Partners
    "Our webmasters receive detailed instructions on configuring Octo Browser from Support. First and foremost, we recommend:

    • Running tests on default profile settings. Most often, Octo profiles created with automatically generated settings perform better than those with manually altered fingerprints. If you really need to change the fingerprint manually, we recommend choosing the same OS as on your device and not changing the user agent and hardware noise settings.

    • Regularly updating your anti-detect browser. This helps avoid bans and identification by advertising platforms. Octo updates the browser kernel faster than anyone else right after the latest Chrome release, so we recommend webmasters to update the browser as soon as they receive a notification from Octo. Additionally, Octo Browser has a community where users can leave their feedback on updates or quickly seek advice if there's a problem with an update.

    • Carefully setting up teamwork. Specifically, monitoring who has access to profiles and who can manage them. You can set passwords on your profiles so no one else can launch them, protecting your data from prying eyes."

Can the Affiliate Network Recommend an Anti-Detect Browser to a Partner?

  • One Partners
    "We test various browsers internally, and when we are confident in their quality, we recommend them to our partners. We also analyze traffic, which itself may indicate incorrect use of anti-detect browsers. But mainly, when our internal statistics show excellent performance of a tool, we stick with it and can recommend it to our partners."

Can the Affiliate Network Protect the Webmaster from Negative Consequences of Using an Anti-Detect Browser?

  • One Partners
    "We have a support department that helps quickly resolve any technical issues and security questions. We also guarantee to handle situations that might have negative consequences in the most beneficial way for the webmaster."

Conclusion

To work with traffic safely, it is crucial to choose a high-quality anti-detect browser. It will ensure security and anonymity for media buyers, enhancing the effectiveness and results of their ad campaigns.
