When Brand PPC Increases in iGaming
If a partner or competitor launches brand bidding, they enter the same auction and direct the user through their affiliate ID — additional competition appears in the auction, and CPC rises.
How much does it cost?
(Current CPC − CPC for ‘clean’ listings) × volume of brand clicks. Example: (0.70 − 0.40) × 20,000 ≈ $6,000 per month. And this is without considering commissions.

At a minimum, check the brand manually.
Systematically — switch to regular monitoring of listings and redirects (for example, using Bluepear).
