The chosen period should not be more than three (3) months so that the data can be easily depicted. In case you have chosen a large period, you can get the message “no data”. This message does not mean that data are not available, which means that a shorter period has to be chosen. Once you’re facing such a query, split the depicted period into smaller periods (e.g., 1 month, 2 weeks, 1 week).

Traffic:

Hosts – unique clicks. The uniqueness of a click is defined by three categories in Affise: browser, device, and timeframe of 24 hours.

Hits – a number of all clicks. 

Click’s uniqueness is defined in Affise in the following way. It’s defined by: 

  1. browser
  2. device
  3. date

In terms of PrimeXBT affiliate script clickid cookie is saved for 24 hours once a click is registered in our system.

Which means that if a click will come to the tracking URL

https://go.primexbt.com/click?pid=XXXX&offer_id=12

we’ll register it as a host and a click (hint).

If the same user clicks on the tracking URL 

https://go.primexbt.com/click?pid=XXXX&offer_id=20

from the same browser&device within 24 hours, only a click will be registered since a host was registered earlier on a previous URL for offer ID 12.

Impressions: a number of tracked Impressions. 

Conversions – the amount of conversions in Approved, Declined and Pending statuses.

Finances – the sum of money that will be paid you for conversions, which have Approved, Declined and Pending statuses.
