Hello,
I have 3 campaigns ready to run on
Example: I click on an Brazil offer and it takes me to a landing page that looks like Youtube and it has a call to action. Then I click on an offer in Indonesia and it takes me to a different offer, but sometimes takes me to the Youtube looking page that has the same call to action. And any time I click on the link for the Qatar offer, it takes me to pages that are identical to Brazil and Indonesia.
I've tested the direct link from
Maybe the offers cloacked and this is the reason you keep landing on same place instead hit the actual offer.
Try different VPNs on same link and check if you land on diffrent pages.

Most affiliate networks will redirect you to a different offer, UNLESS you're browsing from a geo + mobile carrier + OS (+ any other requirement) that is accepted by the offer.
You can try using a VPN, by setting it to the target geo of your offer, but if there are other requirements that are not matched - such as offers that only accept carrier traffic and not wifi - then you'll STILL get redirected.
This is a way for the network to maximize earnings, by not "wasting" any traffic. Let's say when we set up a campaign at a traffic source, but we've targeted the wrong geo (etc.) by accident. By redirecting the traffic to offers that accept it, the aff network would maximize profits for both them and us.
But it IS hella annoying sometimes - need to jump through hoops to see the offer.
And for offers that only accept carrier traffic and not wifi, you'd need to use special tools (most/all of them paid).
Some affiliate networks will include screenshots of the offer in the affiliate area. Some will only provide these (or tell you what the final destination url is) when you ask. Wouldn't hurt to try.

Yep, that's a geo redirect.
I agree it's also annoying, VPN should work most of the times (having a VPN is a recommended for any affiliates toolbox).
Especially with low payout offers it´s not worth to check each and every offer yourself.
VPNs can help but nowadays also many VPN IPs get blocked, with carrier billing offers it´s even harder to check them all.
So when you would try to check every offer you run you will loose lots of time that can better be spent on campaigns.
Yup. I don't usually check offer pages either. Just mass-test - and only if an offer shows promise would I MAYBE bother to look at the offer page to optimize my lander accordingly.
It's not really worth the time in the beginning in most cases.
