Overview
Reward Gateway is a monitoring bot used for security scanning, malware checks, vulnerability assessment, certificate review, and site-safety analysis.
Its primary user-agent pattern is reward-gateway.
Reward Gateway is Unverified at the identity-evidence level. The listed identity remains useful for detection, but this record does not currently contain authoritative evidence sufficient to authenticate the identity claim.
Robots.txt behavior is not currently confirmed.
Reward Gateway can usually be allowed after confirming the source and monitoring request volume.

Behavior and handling
- Common Use
- Reward Gateway is used for security scanning, malware checks, vulnerability assessment, certificate review, and site-safety analysis.
- Detection Notes
- Reward Gateway traffic is primarily detected by the `reward-gateway` user-agent pattern. Compare source IPs, reverse DNS, request paths, and crawl cadence before trusting the traffic.
- Respects robots.txt
- Unknown
- Spoofing Risk
- Reward Gateway has medium spoofing risk because user-agent strings can be copied; pair the match with DNS, IP, behavior, or operator evidence.
- Risk
- Safe
- Recommended Handling
- No
