wecantrack: affiliate conversion consolidation, attribution and integration

Background

The wecantrack platform provides affiliate publishers with automatic conversion consolidation, attribution and integration of all their affiliate conversion data (from over 300 different network sources). It reports session, click and conversion data from all connected websites and affiliate networks in a single dashboard and can seamlessly integrate standardised data into analytics platforms and ad networks.

By using wecantrack, it’s possible to track the performance of all traffic channels, landing pages, campaigns and dive deep into conversion performance. The consolidated and attributed data enables publishers to optimize their content and campaigns to maximise their performance and ROI.


How wecantrack works

Once a website is connected to the wecantrack system, unique click IDs will be inserted via the JS tag within the subid (clickref) parameters of onsite affiliate URLs and from this enable the tracking of website sessions and outgoing clicks. Through API and postback connections, wecantrack will collect affiliate network conversion data and then attribute that data to session and click data. This enables granular reports to be provided that will allow publishers to better analyse the performance of content and campaigns. Furthermore, by activating wecantrack’s integration features Publishers will also be able to send relevant conversion data to Google Analytics account(s) and ad network account(s), unlocking the opportunity to make use of ad networks’ optimization capabilities, audience targeting and machine learning.

Affiliate Dashboard and Conversion Attribution

How to start using wecantrack

wecantrack offers two easy and quick installation options:

1. Connect with wecantrack via the AWIN Master Tag


  • Within the Publisher MasterTag page (located within the ‘Toolbox’) section of a Publisher’s AWIN account a user can activate the wecantrack plugin by toggling on the slider as highlighted below.

  • The plugin activation will automatically create a wecantrack account and connect the Publisher’s AWIN account to their system. This is achieved by adding wecantrack’s technical user account to the Publisher account with read access (N.B. wecantrack have no way of changing any payment, user, or security settings).
  • Please note this user account can be removed at anytime by the owner or admin of a Publisher Account. Disabling the plugin on this page will also remove the wecantrack user account.
  • After activating the plugin, wecantrack will send an email with further instructions to the Publisher Account’s main email address to set up the new wecantrack password, add the relevant website details and activate the integration features that are to be utilised. It is also possible to activate/deactivate the auto-link-tagging feature and the wecantrack JS tag injection via the configuration settings (available by clicking the cog symbol to the left of the activation slider).

NOTE: If you already have an existing direct WeCanTrack integration (see "2. Connect with wecantrack through their standard setup"), we do not recommend an additional activation via the Publisher Mastertag, as this could lead to double counting. In this case, please contact your WeCanTrack support.
