AffScale

AffScale Integration Overview

AffScale and AnyTrack integrate to send data directly to AnyTrack which is then forwarded on to platforms like Google Ads, Facebook Conversion API and TikTok API. This allows marketers to optimize their campaigns, seeing conversions across multiple sources for better decision making.

How does the AffScale AnyTrack integration work:

1. Traffic: When visitors land on your website, AnyTrack collects traffic source data and First Party data.
2. Engagements: When visitors click on your AffScale affiliate links, AnyTrack does a few things:
   1. Collects granular data tied to the OutboundClick.
   2. Triggers Event Tracking API requests to your Tracking Tags and analytics.
3. Conversions: When visitors convert on the merchant's website, AnyTrack receives real time conversion data through Postback URL.
4. Attribution: AnyTrack processes the conversion data and reports it across various reporting sections of the AnyTrack Dashboard.
5. Conversion API: AnyTrack then sends your conversions to your Ad Platforms' Conversion API so you can feed your ad platform's Machine Learning, AI and automatic optimization according to 100% of your conversion data.
