Mass Action Training Video

Separate Unique Clicks

We're excited to let you know LinkTrust 6.5 upgrade is live!

This release was added outside of our normal release schedule to provide a much requested and anticipated feature: The ability to separate and report unique clicks from duplicates.

Now you will have the ability to show affiliates unique clicks instead of total clicks. 

Control of this feature will be set at the campaign level within the filter settings. When enabled, all non-unique clicks will only be counted in the Duplicate Click column in reports. It is important to note, that all new campaigns will default with the new feature enabled, while older campaigns must be manually set.

Our training department created a video to explain the new feature. It will only take a minute to learn how to use it and get it set up the way you want. Watch it today!

Tip of the week: Offer Rating System

Save your affiliate managers' time, and make your affiliates happy by using the LinkTrust offer rating system.

Take three minutes to learn how here!

A shared star rating among affiliates allows them to see what other affiliates who have run or are running the offer think about the quality of the offer. The comment box is a good way for your affiliate to let their affiliate manager know specific details about any issues they might be dealing with for one particular offer.

Tip of the week: Block Affiliate by SubID

LinkTrust now lets you block traffic based on an individual affiliate SubID.

It's just one of the new features we released last week. In less than one minute you can find out exactly how you can use LinkTrust to combat fraud by watching this tip of the week.
