Fraud in user acquisition is a pressing challenge for tech platforms worldwide. KGeN, the leading Verified Distribution Protocol, has announced a strategic partnership with SHIELD to deliver fraud-free user acquisition. This move aims to foster trusted growth and engagement across AI, gaming, DeFi, and consumer apps.
KGeN and SHIELD Partner to Tackle Digital Fraud in User Acquisition
KGeN has scaled rapidly, boasting over 31.9 million users and 6.2 million monthly active users. However, high growth attracted fraudsters creating fake accounts and using bots for fraudulent activities. To combat this, KGeN teamed up with SHIELD, a device-first fraud intelligence platform. Their collaboration seeks to create a trusted ecosystem where only genuine users interact and engage.
How SHIELD’s Device ID Technology Enhances KGeN’s VeriFi System
The core of this partnership is SHIELD’s Device ID technology, offering over 99.99% device-level accuracy. By integrating this tech, KGeN’s VeriFi system can:
- Block fake accounts and bots in real time
- Detect multi-accounting by linking device behavior
- Identify and shut down fraud syndicates
For instance, SHIELD uncovered 9,600 fraudulent accounts tied to a single device, successfully preventing large-scale bonus abuse and maintaining the platform’s integrity.
Proven Results: Boosting Reward Integrity and User Trust at KGeN
Thanks to the partnership, KGeN has seen substantial improvements:
- 99.8% reduction in fake account creation
- 98.7% drop in bot-driven quest completions
- 100% reward integrity for verified users
SHIELD’s real-time fraud intelligence ensures that every incentive goes to legitimate users. As a result, KGeN partners can confidently scale their campaigns with the assurance of real, high-quality engagement.
In summary, the KGeN SHIELD partnership addresses critical fraud issues in digital user acquisition. By integrating advanced fraud detection, both companies are raising the bar for platform security and user trust. This collaboration signals a new standard for authentic growth, fairness, and long-term sustainability in the digital economy.
