How to integrate Commission Factory affiliate conversions in Google Analytics

In order to integrate Commission Factory affiliate conversions in Google Analytics, Google Ads and other marketing platforms, we will need to attribute your affiliate conversion data to your traffic data. Once you placed our JavaScript tag or installed our WordPress plugin on your website, our software automatically places SubIDs with unique click IDs in your Commission Factory affiliate links, which enables us to automatically match your traffic and affiliate conversion data.

The installation is done in four simple steps:

  1. Create a wecantrack account
  2. Connect your Commission Factory account to our system via API
  3. Connect your website to our system
  4. Activate the integration feature

How to connect your Commission Factory account via API

All you need to connect your Commission Factory account with our system is provide our system with your Commission Factory account’s API key (and optionally the Traffic Source).

Frequently asked questions

Should I use the API or the Postback URL integration for Commission Factory?

We recommend the API integration. The API pulls richer transaction detail (merchant, Traffic Source URL, SubID, commission breakdown) directly from Commission Factory.

Where do I find my Commission Factory API Key and Traffic Source URLs?

Inside your Commission Factory publisher dashboard under Account > API Access (for the API Key) and Account > Traffic Sources (for the URLs). Paste both into the wecantrack data source.

What event does the Commission Factory integration track?

A completed sale or qualified lead on a Commission Factory merchant program. Sale amount, commission, transaction ID, merchant, Traffic Source URL, and SubID flow through to wecantrack.

Will my Commission Factory conversions show up in Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and Meta?

Yes. wecantrack pushes attributed Commission Factory CPS conversions into Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, and Meta as offline conversions or server-side events, matched to the click. Optimise Australian paid campaigns on real order revenue.
