Digistore24 postback setup
What Digistore24 sends back when a sale is approved, which field carries your click id, and how UTMCAP joins the two.
- 01
Send the click id out with your offer link
Digistore24 carries it in
cid. Put the token on the offer URL and every conversion can be traced back to the click that paid for it.https://their-offer.com/?cid={utmcap_id} - 02
Paste the postback into Digistore24
UTMCAP builds this for you on your own tracking domain — the example below uses a placeholder. Digistore24 fills in the braces when it calls it.
https://track.example.com/postback?cid={cid}&payout={amount_vendor}&transaction_id={order_id}&status={transaction_type}
What each field carries
| Field | Digistore24 calls it | And fills it with |
|---|---|---|
| Click id | cid | {cid} |
| Payout | payout | {amount_vendor} |
| Their conversion id | transaction_id | {order_id} |
| Status | status | {transaction_type} |
What their statuses mean here
- approved payment
- chargeback refundchargeback
Only approved counts as revenue. Pending and rejected stay separate figures on every report, so your ROI is not built on money you have not been paid.
Worth knowing: Append cid={utmcap_id} to the order link. {transaction_type} is payment, refund or chargeback; {order_type} and {billing_type} carry upsell and subscription detail if you want them.

Questions
About Digistore24 and tracking.
- How do I set up a Digistore24 postback?
- Paste the postback URL from your UTMCAP campaign into Digistore24, on your own tracking domain rather than the example one, and send the click id out in the cid field on your offer link. The parameters are filled in for you; the table above shows what each one carries.
- Does UTMCAP already know Digistore24?
- Yes. Digistore24 is in the catalogue with its parameters and macros taken from its own documentation, so the postback works without you mapping anything by hand.
- What happens if a conversion arrives days later?
- It still finds its click. The postback carries the click id, so a sale approved a week after the click attaches to that click and is dated when it happened. A status change updates the same conversion rather than adding a second one.
- Do conversions count against my plan?
- Conversions and postbacks are never billable here — only the click the redirect answered. Free for 100,000 clicks a month, then $29 for a million.
