Anyone know why my campaign URL doesn't link to my offer?

I have been setting up my tracking, following this video as a guide --> Comprehensive Tracking Tutorial
I got to about 10:30 Minutes in where he copies voluums campaign URL into the address bar and enters some default values, i tried the same with my one offer from tapgerine and it just links to a random offer page, not the one i had set up in Voluum.

URL for my campaign: Click image for larger version.

My tracking software is Voluum, my traffic source is Decisive and i am using Tapgerine as my ad network.

The campaign link:
http://z67cv.voluumtrk.com/3516b707-72e7-4c7d-9ebe-1e518239804c?media={{{media}}}&app={{{app}}}&site= {{{site}}}&placement={{{placement}}}&cat={{{catego ry}}}&device={{{device}}}&isp={{{carrier}}}&os={{{ os_version}}}&cid={{{creative_id}}}&adid={{{ad_id} }}&bidhash={{{bidhash}}}

The campaign link i entered:
http://z67cv.voluumtrk.com/3516b707-72e7-4c7d-9ebe-1e518239804c?media=mobile&app=grindr&site=123&plac ement=456&bidhash={{{bidhash}}}

The visits on my voluum tracking software go up, but the wrong web page loads??!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Jack

guessing that since your profile says you are in the UK but this is a NZ offer, for GEO reason you are being redirected to the landing page you see... users in NZ should see the proper lander. Use some sort of proxy service to pretend you are in NZ to see the proper lander.

Thanks so much! It's annoying how simple the answer is after hours of trying to figure it out , oh well at least i know my tracker inside out now XD

To the joys of being a newbie

Best of luck,

Jack

no problem! btw another thing to keep in mind is that some mobile-only offers will resolve to a different landing page when you are using a desktop/laptop to view them

Quick Update!!

Found the problem! it was with the network and nothing to do with tracking.
