Who is the Share A Sale integration for

Connecting ShareASale to wecantrack makes sense if you fall into any of these buckets:

  • US content sites and review blogs running ShareASale programs across thousands of US merchant programs in retail, fashion, finance, and lifestyle who need per-merchant revenue back in Google Analytics.
  • US cashback and coupon operators with high-volume ShareASale click activity who need clean SubID attribution for paid acquisition.
  • Paid media buyers running Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, or Meta to ShareASale-tracked landing pages and needing CPS data flowing back for US ROAS optimisation.
  • Affiliate agencies managing multi-merchant ShareASale portfolios who need clean per-publisher and per-SubID attribution for client reporting.
  • Existing wecantrack customers consolidating ShareASale (now migrated onto the Awin platform) alongside other Awin-group networks (Awin, Commission Factory) for unified attribution.
