How do I sign up as a publisher?

Publisher registration is free through the official signup form. TradeTracker then reviews your application and promotional channel. Once approved, you can explore campaigns and apply under each advertiser’s conditions. Account approval does not automatically grant access to every campaign.

Which information can publishers access through the API?

TradeTracker webservices can provide account, campaign, transaction, productfeed, payment and creative information according to your permissions. Use them to automate reports and integrations. The documented webservices use SOAP; access and documentation are available through Creatives & Tools > Web services. Keep credentials and API keys in your own secure environment.

Can I join as a publisher with a social channel and no website?

A relevant, active social channel can be considered. TradeTracker India's publisher qualifications include social channels alongside websites and databases. Describe your channel, audience, content and intended promotional methods in your application so the publisher team can assess the setup.

Network approval and permission to promote a particular advertiser are separate. Check each campaign's rules before posting an affiliate link. The Code of Conduct requires prior written advertiser approval for social traffic to advertisers, and some campaigns impose additional restrictions. Make the commercial relationship clear to your audience. Acceptance of one channel does not approve every account, placement or campaign automatically.

Why is my application to a campaign pending or rejected?

Publisher account approval gives you access to the network; an advertiser may still need to approve your participation in its campaign. A pending application is awaiting a decision. A rejection means the application has not been accepted, rather than proving that your entire publisher account is unsuitable.

Check the campaign's permitted channels, target countries and other admission conditions. Keep your site description and promotional plans current. If the reason is unclear, contact the advertiser through the available ticket system or ask your publisher manager for guidance. Only the reviewing team can confirm the specific reason or a new review. Do not assume approval or a fixed response time.

Can I manage several websites and channels in one publisher account?

Use your publisher account's site management to register additional websites and discuss any additional social or other promotional channels with the publisher team. The documented route for adding a site is Account > My sites > Add a new site. Describe each channel accurately so its audience and promotional methods can be assessed.

Choose the correct registered site when obtaining links and reviewing performance. Additional countries and individual campaigns can require separate approval; an existing site's approval does not automatically extend to another channel. Several sites in an account are also different from several separate accounts: TradeTracker ID can connect existing accounts under one sign-in without merging their campaigns or reports.

How do I update and verify my payment details?

Sign in to your publisher account through TradeTracker ID and review the financial and payment details for the correct account and market. Check the account holder or company name, the required bank or payment fields and any applicable business details. TradeTracker's Code of Conduct makes publishers responsible for keeping those details accurate.

Follow the checks shown in your account. If a field is locked or the status is unclear, use authenticated account support to ask what is required for India. Do not send bank details or identity documents through a public FAQ chat. Saving changed details does not confirm that verification is complete or that a payment already being processed can be redirected.

How do I create and test an affiliate deeplink?

First check that your registered site is approved for the campaign and that the chosen destination and promotional method are allowed. Select the correct site and campaign, then use the link creation option available in your account to generate an affiliate link to the required product, category or landing page. Use a supplied campaign deeplink if that is the available option.

Open the generated link and check the destination, mobile experience and any country or language redirects. Keep the tracking parameters intact. Where supported, add a publisher reference to distinguish placements. Confirm recording through the appropriate reports; seeing the landing page alone does not prove conversion tracking. Arrange a test conversion with TradeTracker if needed.

How do I use a productfeed on my website?

Choose a campaign for which your site is approved and check which productfeed or webservice access is available. A feed supplies structured product information for uses such as product listings, comparisons or relevant content. Map the fields you need, including product reference, title, price, availability, image and affiliate destination.

Use the supplied tracked links rather than replacing them with ordinary product URLs. Set an update schedule suitable for the feed and your site, handle unavailable products and failed updates, and avoid showing stale prices as current. Test destinations and tracking after import. Feed access does not grant permission to reuse every asset or promote through every channel; campaign conditions still apply.
