Is there any chance that the offer we add does not have final page or link as when i am opening the link in my laptop the page is saying screenshot is removed. Please advice.

This is because the offer likely only accepts carrier traffic, i.e. visitors that are surfing from their cell phones while on data (NOT connected via WIFI).

So what would happen is, because you're not surfing from a phone running on data with that particular carrier, when you click on the offer link, the aff network will detect this, and will instantaneously redirect you to another offer - one that DOES accept visitors that match YOUR profile (geo, carrier/wifi, mobile/desktop, etc.)

So - to run these types of offers, we normally just target the right traffic from the traffic network (i.e. from the right geo and carrier), and then check the affiliate network dashboard's stats to make sure that it's going to the correct offer.

There are services that can let you emulate carrier traffic, i.e. surf as though you're the correct visitor using that carrier and on data. But these services tend to be expensive and not really necessary IMO.

If you really want to see what the offer looks like, you can ask your AM. Also, Mobidea provides screenshots of the offer page for some/most of these offers for your reference.
