ClickCease - Click Fraud Protection
10,000+ active installs · Rated 3.0/5 · Updated May 7, 2026
Connector for the ClickCease (CHEQ) bot and click fraud service. It adds the ClickCease monitoring tag to front-end pages and, once Bot Zapping keys are entered, checks each visitor against the vendor's real-time interception API and returns 403 to traffic it flags. It suits advertisers paying for ClickCease who want server-side blocking on WordPress. The plugin does nothing useful without a ClickCease subscription, and it calls vendor servers on page loads.
Pros
- Server-side blocking of flagged visitors before the page renders
- Monitoring-only mode that reports without blocking
- IP allow list of up to five addresses
- Small plugin with a single settings screen
Cons
- Needs a paid ClickCease subscription after a 7 day trial
- Sends a request to the vendor API on front-end page loads
- Sends plugin state and error logs to the vendor without asking
- Readme lists testing only up to WordPress 6.6
