Create Tracking Links

When you partner with a brand, you'll gain access to a range of assets you can promote. These assets have tracking links that allow impact.com to track any conversions (e.g., sales) you drive, which may lead to payouts from the brand.

You can place a tracking link on your promotional sites or social media posts, or attach it to an image or text you've created. When a user follows the link, they'll be directed to the brand's landing page, and credit for driving the click will be attributed to your impact.com account.

Create a tracking link for a specific brand program

Important: The tracking link generator is only available if you are joined to at least one program. Some brands may disable the link generator for their program, or disallow deep linking.

Use this method to quickly generate a tracking link that can redirect users to a specific page for a brand program.

  1. On your partner account dashboard, in the right-hand column, locate the CREATE AND SHARE LINK widget.

    • Alternatively, on your Creator account dashboard, in the left-hand column, locate the Create a link widget.

  2. From the angle-down-solid.svg [Drop-down list], select the program for which you want a tracking link.

  3. Optionally, enter a Landing Page (website URL) to which your tracking link should direct users. If left blank, users will be directed to the program's default landing page. The URL must include a protocol.

    • (Recommended) https://—The link will only use the secure version of HTTP to serve content.

    • http(s)://—The link will attempt to use the secure version of HTTP, but will use unsecured HTTP as a fallback.

  4. Optionally, select Advanced to add Sub IDs, a Shared ID, or a Promotional Property to the link.

  5. Select Create. The shareable tracking link will be available near the bottom of the widget.
