How to connect ArtisanClo to your Swaarm
ArtisanClo sits on your site and decides who may reach the offer. Swaarm keeps running your campaigns as before and reports every conversion back to ArtisanClo — so CR and revenue show up in your cloaking statistics right next to the bots that were filtered out.
How a visit flows
ArtisanClo decides on your site, before the visit ever reaches Swaarm. After that, the visit follows your campaign as usual.
A visit from an ad link
A person or a reviewer clicks the ad and lands on your site.
The check on your site
The ArtisanClo JS tag or PHP file sends the visit to be checked: person or bot.
ArtisanClo decides
A person gets a visit label and the offer link; everyone else gets the White Page.
A person moves on to your Swaarm campaign carrying the visit label, and Swaarm sends them to the offer as usual.
Bots, reviewers and spy services get the White Page and never reach Swaarm.
How to connect
Your site connects to ArtisanClo the usual way — with the JS tag or the PHP file. For conversions to come back from Swaarm, there are four more steps: in the ArtisanClo flow and in your Swaarm account.
- 01
Select Swaarm in the flow
In an ArtisanClo flow in “Cloaking” mode, open the “Tracker” step, go to the “External tracker” block and pick Swaarm from the list.
- 02
Add the visit label to the offer link
The offer link leads to your Swaarm campaign. The “Add to the link” button appends the visit label to every offer in the flow, and the field turns green.
- 03
Paste the notification address into Swaarm
The link in the status line opens a window with the address. Copy it and paste it into your Swaarm account; the “?” button next to the tracker list shows exactly where.
- 04
Wait for the first conversion
Once Swaarm reports it, the status line says “Conversions are already coming in”, and CR and revenue appear in your cloaking statistics.

What ArtisanClo adds to your tracker
Swaarm keeps running your campaigns and counting conversions. ArtisanClo answers one question — who is behind the visit — and explains the answer.
A trust score for every visit
Network, device and browser signals add up to a trust score; VPNs, proxies, data centers and robot browsers are caught along the way. The check runs on your site, so Swaarm only receives visits that have already been sorted.
Shared memory of bots
When an ad-review service, a platform robot or a program posing as a browser is identified with certainty in any account, its next visit to your flow gets the White Page at once. Real people with a doubtful network, a VPN or no JavaScript never go into this memory.
Shield and auto-shield
While a review is running, only visits with the platform's click ID — fbclid, gclid, ttclid and more — reach the offer. Auto-shield raises the shield on its own when review traces spike above the usual level.
A reason for every decision
Each click in the log carries one of 83 reasons, and its breakdown shows at which step the visit was stopped — you see which check fired, not just that one did.

From the free trial to the first conversions in your cloaking statistics.

Pick the traffic source, the White Page and “Cloaking” mode, and use your Swaarm campaign as the offer link.
- 03
Connect your site and Swaarm
Put the JS tag or PHP file from the connection window on your site, then select Swaarm in the “Tracker” step and paste the notification address into your Swaarm account.
- 04
Watch CR and revenue
Conversions from Swaarm appear in your cloaking statistics — next to every visit's decision and its reason.
If you ever want everything in one place
ArtisanClo has a tracker built in. In “Cloaking + Tracker” mode the flow itself counts clicks, spend, conversions, profit and ROI and takes postbacks from affiliate networks — with no server of your own.
Frequently asked questions
01How does ArtisanClo work together with Swaarm?
ArtisanClo sits on your site and decides who may reach the offer. The offer link leads to your Swaarm campaign and carries a visit label; Swaarm sends the person to the offer as usual and remembers the label. When a conversion comes in, Swaarm reports it to ArtisanClo on its own. To ArtisanClo, your tracker is what a traffic source is to a tracker.
02Do I need to change anything in my Swaarm campaigns?
No. Campaigns, offers and their settings stay in Swaarm as they are. You only paste the ArtisanClo notification address into your Swaarm account once — it is shared by all your flows.
03What is a visit label and why is it needed?
It is a number ArtisanClo gives every visit. It travels to Swaarm with the offer link and comes back with the conversion — that is how ArtisanClo knows which visit brought the lead or the sale. The “Add to the link” button appends the label to every offer in the flow.
04How do I know everything is set up?
Check the status line in the “Tracker” step. “Conversions are already coming in” means you are done. If notifications arrive but no visits match them, make sure the visit label is in the offer link and the address in Swaarm was pasted as is, without edits.
05What happens to bots and reviewers?
They get the White Page right on your site and never reach Swaarm. You can see why a visit was turned away in the ArtisanClo click log: every visit has its reason, and the click breakdown shows the step where it was stopped.
06Part of my traffic runs through Keitaro or Binom. Is that fine?
Yes. The external tracker is chosen in each flow separately, so some flows can work with Swaarm and others with Keitaro or Binom. Keitaro and Binom also have their own connection methods: a stream filter in Keitaro and a gate in the Binom landing.
07Which plan includes the Swaarm connection?
It works from the free trial and on paid plans. Paid plans are paid in cryptocurrency, and clicks are not billed.
08Can I move to the built-in tracker later?
Yes. Switch the flow to “Cloaking + Tracker”, and ArtisanClo counts clicks, spend, conversions and ROI itself. While you keep Swaarm, its conversions show up in the cloaking statistics.
