What is a Deeplink?
Deeplink is a unique affiliate link designated specifically for each publisher. This allows any generated conversions to be tracked and attributed back to the publisher.
How does a Deeplink work?
When you start promoting advertisers’ products and services, you will be able to find your tracking link with an affiliate ID which typically looks like this:

When your visitor clicks on this link, it redirects them to the advertiser’s website. The affiliate ID above is stored in browser cookies as a unique identifier and once they complete a purchase, the system is able to identify and pass that information back to our system for tracking.
A visitor is tracked across all pages on the advertiser’s site. Even if your visitor is redirected to a different product and they decide to buy another product offered by the advertiser, you will still earn a commission from the sale.
When you sell, all impressions and clicks are tracked in real-time. However, leads or sales may sometimes take up to 10-30 minutes before it appears on your statistics report in your dashboard.
To understand how an offer tracks conversions, it is important to observe the allowed track type.
