impact.com offers a few additional query string parameters that you can append to the tracking links you pull from Brands you've partnered with in impact.com.
Note
When getting tracking links from impact.com, Brands may add certain metatags to the link that must not be removed—doing so will result in inaccurate tracking.
From the top navigation bar, select Content → Assets.
Select the asset you want to promote.
On the right, select Ad Code.
Under the code, select Copy Code.
Next to Ad Code, select Tracking Link.
Select Copy Tracking Code, and paste it a line below the full code in your text editor.
At the end of the tracking link, add your query string(s) after a "?" (question mark):
https://le.pxf.io/c/1416144/674249/8882?trafcat=toolbarTo add multiple query strings together, use an "&" (ampersand) between each query string:
https://le.pxf.io/c/1416144/674249/8882?subid1=blog&sharedid=website¶m1=link
Take your customized tracking link and replace the first reference to the default tracking link in the full asset code with your customized tracking link.
Now you can publish the asset with your customized tracking code.

The u parameter is used for deep-linking to a specific URL. This can be configured via the UI. The brand you're partnered with must also allow deep linking, and the deep-linked URL must be an allowed domain and path by the brand. Keep in mind that the URL used must be percent-encoded (i.e., using valid ASCII characters). We recommend using the UI to deep link if you're not comfortable manually encoding a URL.
The Traffic Category query parameter is a manually appended custom value primarily used to label the category of traffic coming from a tracking link. Usually, this value is specified by the advertiser for you to use, and is used in context for where links are published (e.g., "Toolbar" for traffic coming from a web toolbar). Advertisers can configure payout rules based on this query string in the terms they propose to you.
The Traffic Source query parameter is a manually appended custom value primarily used to identify the source that traffic is coming from. Usually, this value is specified by the advertiser for you to use, and used to determine where traffic is coming from (.e.g, "Paid Search"). Advertisers can configure payout rules based on this query string in the terms they propose to you.
The Product SKU query parameter is a manually appended custom value used to identify a brand's specific product SKU for tracking links that send traffic to a specific product. Product Catalog tracking links automatically append this value, but you can append this value manually if requested by the advertiser.
