TerraLeads postback setup
What TerraLeads 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
TerraLeads carries it in
sub_id. 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/?sub_id={utmcap_id} - 02
Paste the postback into TerraLeads
UTMCAP builds this for you on your own tracking domain — the example below uses a placeholder. TerraLeads fills in the braces when it calls it.
https://track.example.com/postback?cid={click_id}&payout={payout}&status={status}
What each field carries
| Field | TerraLeads calls it | And fills it with |
|---|---|---|
| Click id | cid | not published |
| Payout | payout | not published |
| Status | status | not published |
Worth knowing: Append sub_id={utmcap_id} to the offer URL; sub_id_1 to sub_id_4 are free for your own values. Their postback carries lead_id, payment and status as well — the exact macro spelling is in the API section of your account, and it takes POST as well as GET.
Taken from what TerraLeads publishes; the rest it keeps inside your account — source. We do not cite other trackers’ help pages, because a rival’s integration note says what their template does, which is not the same as what TerraLeads sends.
Questions
About TerraLeads and tracking.
- How do I set up a TerraLeads postback?
- Paste the postback URL from your UTMCAP campaign into TerraLeads, on your own tracking domain rather than the example one, and send the click id out in the sub_id field on your offer link. The parameters are filled in for you; the table above shows what each one carries.
- Does UTMCAP already know TerraLeads?
- Partly. TerraLeads is in the catalogue, and the parts it publishes are filled in. The rest it keeps inside your own account — read them there once and save them as your template.
- 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.
- What does this cost?
- 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.
