When a visitor fails Know-Your-Customer verification (age, identity, residency) and is rejected by the publisher. AffilFinder treats KYC declines as monetizable blocked traffic.
KYC decline is part of AffilFinder's vocabulary for geo-gated affiliate marketing. It typically appears alongside Decline overlay and Blocked traffic. See the rest of the vocabulary on the full glossary page.

- Decline overlay
The widget shown to a blocked visitor in place of a static “not available” page. The overlay surfaces a relevant sponsored offer and links the visitor through to the advertiser.
- Blocked traffic
Visitors who land on a publisher’s site but cannot access the requested content because they’re outside the licensed service area. Without monetization this traffic is wasted; with AffilFinder it generates pay-per-click revenue.
