Postback link

When an affiliate networks ask for the postback link or the global postback link, what they really mean?
Sorry maybe it's a stupid question but I'm not sure which link to give.

Your affiliate network needs a link to report the conversions to. Only then you can see the conversion in your tracker or traffic source dashboard.

Thanks. But where can I get this link? From the tracker?

When you are using a tracker then somewhere in the settings you will find your postback.

Easiest way is to either read the docs or just ask support.

Yup, just get it from the tracker.

Then you need to adjust the tokens to receive the correct postback info.

Just for clarification, whenever possible use a global postback.

That means that you add a postback URL for your whole account at a CPA network.

When you don´t set it you would have to add the postback for each offer you run manually.

Thanks, is it possible that in Bemob the Global Postback is called:"Tracking domain"?

"A tracking domain is required to generate the tracking links for your campaigns: postback URL, tracking pixels, click URL, impression URL, campaign URL."

No, a domain is just a domain like yourtrackingdomain.com

An URL is basically a domain with

The domain will be used then for the redirects from trafficsource to your tracker (campaign URL), for redirects from landing page to CPA network (click URL) and to send conversion info from CPA network back to the tracker (postback URL).

Do you already have a domain to use for tracking?

But you need a domain.

If Bemob can´t help you there check out FunnelFlux, it has a visual editor that maybe is easier to use for a beginner and @zeno can probably help you to get started there smooth.

Or just use Binom, I also use Binom myself.

They also have top notch support and are very helpful.

Don’t have to since Bemob is cloud based like Voluum or redtrack so it has generated domains in it already. Just use their generated domains for now.

I know and you´re right that it´s probably easier to start that way but I don´t recommend such pltforms domains, it´s better to get an own one that you control yourself.

Don't make your life harder than necessary. Just choose one of the trackers that are covered in the 40 day tutorial.

Tho you will love the tracker you start working with you always can change it. It is a bit of pain but it is def. doable.
