Identify zeropark traffic sources in voluum

Hello there,

I testing a new campaign that is a direct link to my affiliate offer, through Voluum. I am using a double meta refresh (although it may not be needed, would this cause any traffic loss) ? But all of the traffic I've received in Voluum has an unknown referrer. Since I am basically do a RON for US on mobile pops/redirects, I think having this referrer data will be pretty crucial to figure out what is deliver my leads, and trim the fat. Any suggestions here on what I might be doing wrong?

I'm not familiar with cloaking, but AFAIK a double meta refresh is used for that exact purpose - to blank out the referer so that your affiliate network for example won't know where the traffic is from.

And I've been told that using a double meta refresh will increase page load time to negatively affect CTR/CR. (See this thread for details.)

Try NOT using double meta refresh for a few minutes and see if referers show up in the stats? That may be the quickest way to find out.
