How to integrate NordVPN affiliate conversions in Google Analytics

We can integrate all your NordVPN affiliate sales in Google Analytics and other marketing tools, but for that to happen it is necessary to attribute the sales data to the traffic data. Our system automatically places SubIDs in all your 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 NordVPN account to our system via API
  3. Connect your website to our system
  4. Activate the integration feature

 

NordVPN affiliate platform is powered by Has Offers, which is a software used to create affiliate networks. The API connection of these networks works the same way which is why you will be able to connect many networks via the same API integration method.

If you want to connect your NordVPN account to with our system, you need to provide us your account’s API key and Network ID for each of your NordVPN affiliate accounts. Those credentials need to be filled in within our data sources page which you can find by following this link: https://app.wecantrack.com/user/data-source/networks/nordvpn/accounts/create

You can give each of the data connections different names and tags which enables you to easily filter your data on account or sub account level.

  • Go to Account > API.
  • Generate an API key.
  • Copy it and paste it into the wecantrack NordVPN data source.
