Binom

Binom is an affiliate tracker installed on a server you control. Like any tracker, it sits between the ad and the offer: it logs each click with its source parameters, routes the visitor through landers and offers by rules and weights, receives postbacks from the CPA network and joins revenue to the click so you can see profit per placement, lander and offer.

What Binom is known for is speed under load. The vendor's homepage says it "can handle tens of millions of clicks per day", and in nutra it is commonly used for high-volume push and pop, where redirect speed affects conversion. Its pricing reflects the self-hosted model: the vendor says on its pricing page that "you can buy a billion clicks and only pay the licensing fee for their processing."

It is one way to put tracking and attribution into practice with a fixed monthly cost.

Binom fits buyers running large volumes of cheap traffic, push, pop and in-page push above all, where every tenth of a second on the redirect costs visitors, and where per-event pricing would eat the thin margin. Nutra COD campaigns in tier 2 and tier 3 countries are a typical case: many clicks, low payout per approved lead, margins decided at the placement level.

It suits small teams well, because the base plan includes unlimited users and domains, so adding a second buyer costs nothing extra.

It does not suit someone who wants no server at all (the cloud option exists but has a much lower traffic cap and a higher price), or a buyer whose traffic is almost entirely Meta or Google, where conversion API features matter more than redirect speed.

You add traffic sources (with their token macros, such as zone ID and cost), CPA networks (with their postback format) and offers. A campaign in Binom gets its own URL, which you set as the ad's destination in the network. Paths and rules inside the campaign decide what happens to each click: filter bots, split visitors by country or device, rotate landers and offers by weight.

When a visitor converts, the network calls Binom's postback URL with the click ID and payout. Binom then attributes the conversion, and reports can group data up to five levels deep, according to the homepage, for example source, then zone, then lander, then offer.

Landers can be hosted inside Binom ("integrated landings" on the vendor's page), which keeps the whole chain on one server and cuts a hop. The vendor also sells Binom Protect, a separate filtering service. Its pricing page says it covers "bots, VPNs, proxies, anti-detect browsers, click farms, spy services, moderators, checkers, and crawlers". Filtering out platform moderators so that they see different content is cloaking, which ad platforms ban; this site describes the feature, it does not recommend using it for that.

You need a clean server. As of September 2026 the v2 installation guide asks for Ubuntu 24.04 or 26.04 on KVM, with at least 4 GB of RAM, 2 cores and 50 GB of disk. Install is scripted; then you point a domain at the server, add SSL, and configure sources, networks and campaigns.

The self-hosted trial (14 days by default, 30 if you ask support) gives you time to do this with real traffic before paying. Ongoing work is the same as any self-hosted tracker: updates, backups, monitoring load.

Use the trial to watch CPU, RAM and disk on your real traffic, and compare them with the minimums above before deciding whether the server needs to grow.

Redirect speed and volume. Speed is the reputation Binom is bought for. The vendor's claim is tens of millions of clicks a day on a single install; the self-hosted plan lists "traffic up to 260m/day" on the pricing page as of September 2026.

Unlimited users and domains on the base plan. Keitaro limits users and domains by plan; Binom's self-hosted plan does not, which makes it cheaper for a growing team.

A trial that can be stretched. The self-hosted price card on the pricing page says "30-days trial", but the FAQ on the same page says registration gives a 14-day trial with no traffic or feature limits, which you "can also extend to 30 days upon request to support or by using a coupon", as of September 2026. Ask support for the extension up front; 30 days is the longest trial among the four trackers covered here.

Lifetime data retention on self-hosted, as listed on the pricing page. Cloud trackers cap retention by plan (6 to 36 months for Voluum and RedTrack plans).

Deep reports. Grouping five levels deep covers the usual placement-to-offer analysis without exports.

Server work is on you, as with Keitaro: downtime, backups, updates and scaling are your problem.

Social ad integrations lag. As of September 2026 the homepage says Facebook and Google Ads integrations exist in v1 and are "soon available" in v2. A buyer centred on Meta or Google today gets more from RedTrack, which ships conversion API sending on every plan.

The cloud option is limited. Binom Cloud costs $299 a month with traffic up to 2 million a day, per the pricing page. That is double the self-hosted price for a fraction of the ceiling, so Binom is really a self-hosted product.

Cloaking in the feature list. The vendor lists "cloaking tools" and moderator filtering among its features. Using them to show platforms different content breaks Google's and Meta's rules and ends in banned accounts; this is not a reason to pick Binom.

No cheap solo entry. The single self-hosted plan costs more per month than Keitaro's entry plan. A solo buyer at low volume pays for team features they do not use.

As of September 2026, the pricing page lists self-hosted Binom v2 at $149 a month, or $104 a month on yearly billing, with a trial (the plan card shows 30 days as of October 2026, while the FAQ still describes 14 days extendable to 30 on request), unlimited users and domains, and an additional licence at $75 a month ($52 yearly). Binom Cloud is $299 a month with a 7-day trial and a 2 million daily traffic cap. Binom Protect is priced separately.

Illustrative total: $104 a month plus a server at an assumed $40 a month is $144, flat, whether you send 5 million or 50 million clicks. At 50 million events, a cloud tracker's overage alone would run well over a thousand dollars a month.

Keitaro is the direct substitute: same model, flat licence, your server, your data. Choose Keitaro if you are one person and want the cheaper Starter plan, if you need ready cost sync with Meta, TikTok and Google today, or if your team already runs CentOS. Choose Binom if you want to test before paying (up to a month if support extends the trial), run Ubuntu, need several buyers on one install without paying per seat, or push very high volumes of pop and push.

If running a server is the problem rather than the choice between the two, look at Voluum or RedTrack, and accept per-event pricing.

Binom is a strong fit for high-volume push and pop buyers who can run a server and want a fixed cost, with unlimited seats on the base plan and a trial that support will extend to 30 days, long enough to prove it on real traffic. For nutra COD at scale, where margins are thin and volumes large, that combination is the reason it is widely used.

It is weaker for social-first buyers, since v2's Meta and Google integrations were still announced as coming in September 2026, and it is not a cheap start for a solo buyer at low volume. The cloaking and moderator filtering it advertises are a risk to avoid, not a feature to count.

Between Binom and Keitaro, test both on the same traffic if you can; the difference is more about fit than quality.
