Better Charts & Multi-Currency Data, Affiliate Center Improvements, Advertiser’s API & Password Reset

Interactive Charts Reflect Multi-Currency, Date Range, Table Data

We’ve improved our graphs and charts so that they’re interactive while also reflecting table data in the report.

  • Drill into detail by hovering any portion of the pie chart or line chart.
  • Narrow or widen the date range to visualize patterns and trends.
  • Switch between Revenue, Commission, Clicks, Conversions, etc. to see performance of each.
  • Financial stats will display in your account’s preferred currency, to help you compare performance accurately.

Advertiser Center Improvements

Advertisers Reset their Own Passwords

When your advertisers get to their login page, they now have links ‘Forgot Password or Username’ available. They can use their Email address to request a password reset or username reminder email. They can also provide their Username to request a password reset.

Advertisers Have Their Own API

Now your Advertisers who want to pull data via API can access their Campaign Performance stats with a GET method and their login credentials. Provide start and end dates to determine date range. Keep in mind that settings in a campaign’s View Rights tab will filter these API results. Here’s an example URL:

https://api-mc.linktrust.com/v2/Reports/CampaignPerformance?StartDate=10/01/2020&EndDate=10/31/2020
