Adding a Custom Sign up Source

December 12, 2016 by ShareASale

What is a signup source?

If you are interested in tracking where your affiliate signups come from, you can use our “Signup Source” feature. Using a signup source, you can set up a rule to automatically approve their application, auto-assign a tag and generally help you organize and keep track of your affiliates.  

The source is tracked through a line of code that is attached to your co-branded recruitment url. There are two ways to append a signup source: manually and through our new Vanity Link Creator. 

You will see an Affiliate’s Sign up source on an existing Affiliate’s Detail Page and on any incoming application.

Once you have a Signup Source in place, you can easily create an AUTOTAG scenario so an affiliate will come in with a tag already assigned to it.
