Below we will describe the step-by-step process for the S2S integration of the Volume Tracker and PropellerAds network:
Step #1 - Create your postback URL
Your PropellerAds postback URL is created automatically. Copy it from your PropellerAds dashboard.
Step #2 - Add Propeller Ads as your traffic source on Voluum
Log in to your Voluum account, choose the Traffic Sources tab, and click the New Traffic Source green button.
Select PropellerAds from the list and click Load Template. Voluum will pre-populate all the necessary traffic source settings.
Remember to change “REPLACE” to your IDs from the postback URL we created in Step #1. The URL can be found on the Tracking screen in your PropellerAds advertiser’s account.
Please note that you must insert your actual aid and tid; otherwise, your conversions will not be tracked correctly.
After completing all replacements, click Save to store your PropellerAds settings in Voluum (if you want to make any changes, select your traffic source from the list and click the Edit button).
Step #3 - Generate the postback URL on Voluum
To be notified about conversions from an affiliate network, you need to generate the Postback URL on Voluum containing the "CLICK ID" and add it to the affiliate network's panel.
Please refer to the Voluum Knowledge Base to learn how to add affiliate networks and offers and generate the postback URLs.
To find your Voluums' Postback URL, go to the Settings section, then select Tracking URLs Tab. Once you get your Voluums’ Postback URL, paste it to your affiliate network's panel to pass data about conversions from the affiliate network to Voluum.
If you are having any problems, please feel free to contact your affiliate network support.
Step #4 - Set up the Campaign on Voluum
Choose the New Campaign button (visible in all report tabs) to open the new campaign configuration menu.
Select "PropellerAds" as the Traffic source and fill out all other mandatory fields.
Once you’ve finished setting up your campaign’s destination paths, click Save.
This will create a new campaign within the campaigns list and generate the Campaign URL needed to direct traffic to it.
Step #5 - Set up the Campaign on Propeller Ads
Log in to your PropellerAds advertiser account, click the Campaigns tab, and then click the Create Campaign button (or edit one of your existing campaigns).
Copy the Campaign URL with all parameters from Voluum campaign settings and paste it as the Target URL for your campaign on PropellerAds.
Step #5 - Check your conversion tracking settings (optional but recommended)
Once you've set up your conversion tracking path, you may check if your settings are correct.
Click the Tracking tab in your PropellerAds account, and choose the Test conversion section.
Copy the Campaign URL with all parameters from Voluum campaign settings, paste it into the field marked on the screenshot below, and click the Create test banner button.
Once a test banner appears, click it to follow your conversion funnel and make a test conversion).
Ensure all postback URLs and settings are configured properly on the test conversion tab.
