MGID Dashboard Settings

Start by creating an event and a Postback URL in the MGID dashboard. Follow these steps:

1. Create a new advertising campaign or edit an existing one by clicking on its respective icon in the dashboard.

1. newinterface_manual

2. Navigate to the Conversion tracking section and select the Postback option in the Tracking settings tab.

2. newinterface_manual

3. Add a new conversion goal and create a unique name for the goal. You can select an existing goal here as well.

Here, you can also indicate the conversion cost (optional).

3. newinterface_manual

Repeat these steps (i.e., add another goal) if you want to track more than one conversion goal. The system allows for tracking up to three conversion goals using Postback. 

4. You can track unique and non-unique conversions using Postback.

Find the conversion counting button under the advanced settings dropdown. By default, it’s set up to track only unique conversions. 

However, some funnels require counting multiple conversions with the same click ID. An example of this is a standard funnel with a "purchase" conversion and an upsell action after the first purchase. In this case, counting non-unique conversions feature will be useful for accurate tracking. 

The conversion counting setting is available separately for each of the three conversion goals.

4. newinterface_manual

Keep in mind that if the setting is mistakenly switched to count all conversions, it may result in inaccurate statistics. Use this feature only when necessary for specific scenarios.

5. Select Manual setup from the drop-down menu.

6. Set up macros for tracking link, add the real get parameter for the click_id macro that the third-party tool uses.  Add the parameter aff_sub for the click_id macro field.

The {click_id} macro is crucial for postback conversion tracking.  To make sure your Postback works as intended, add the real parameter for the {click_id} macro in this field.

6. newinterface_manual

7. You can also set up the  following fields:

  • Add additional macro by clicking the plus button;
  • Add any additional parameters to your tracking link. Custom tags will be included alongside system-defined macros when your campaigns go live;
  • Add UTM tags to the link. 

Check the Tracking link preview field to see how the appended part of your tracking link will look with all macros and tags included.

7. newinterface_manual

8.  Scroll down to the Postback URLs section. Next to the goal name, click Get Postback URL and then copy the URL. Save the link on your device, as you will need it later.

8. newinterface_manual

9.  Save changes if editing, or publish the campaign if creating a new one.

Gamesvid Dashboard Settings

  • Select Postback as a type of tracking.

    The final step is to fill in the Postback URL (the link that was copied while creating Postback goals in the MGID dashboard) with a correct macro for Gamesvid. 

    Example: 

    https://a.mgid.com/postback/client_ID?c={aff_sub}&e=test_event&r={payout}

    Where:

    • client_ID is a unique parameter for our system that is transferred to our system alongside the event's status. 
    • c is a click ID’s macro. For Gamesvid, replace {click_id} with the {aff_sub} macro.
    • e=test_event is a Postback goal identifier that can be displayed in the form of a {status} macro or status name
    • r is an optional parameter to which conversion revenue can be transferred. 

    4. After saving the changes, go to the GENERATE TRACKING section to set up the tracking link. Select the landing from the drop-down list and copy the tracking link after saving the changes. 

    Gamesvid_MGID_Ads_4

    If the custom UTM Tracking Tags were left blank in step 5 (MGID ad campaign setup), in the Affiliate Sub ID, add the {click_id} macro and click on the Update option. 

    5. Create a teaser in the MGID Dashboard using our link.
