# SMS & Email Bot Click Protection

Prevent bot clicks from inflating engagement metrics by filtering automated interactions.

The SMS & Email Bot Click Protection feature introduces advanced mechanisms to filter out automated bot clicks while ensuring a seamless experience for real users. This enhancement improves click tracking accuracy for SMS and Email campaigns by preventing artificial engagement from security scanners and automated crawlers.

## How It Works

When enabled, SMS & Email bot protection automatically applies to all links. Bots attempting to click links are redirected to an empty verification page. Legitimate users experience a smooth redirect to the intended destination. Any detected bot clicks are excluded from analytics.

## Improved Click Analytics Accuracy

Removes bot clicks from campaign performance reports. Ensures only genuine interactions are counted in engagement metrics.
