Universal Tracking
Introduction
ShopBack uses TUNE Hasoffers for direct integration tracking. For ShopBack's universal tracking solution for most web-based e-commerce solutions, TUNE's Javascript SDK offers the most comprehensive solution for a diverse range of applications.
The TUNE Javascript SDK offers client-side functionality for session storage and conversions to Advertisers. By utilizing the Javascript SDK, you'll have the accuracy of server-side postbacks with the setup effort of client-side pixel tracking. This tutorial will walk you through the steps of setting up your Offer, adding the SDK to a page to start & store sessions, and then posting a conversion.
How Javascript SDK works
- Merchants add the SDK snippet to all pages.
- ShopBack user clicks through ShopBack and ShopBack redirects the user to the merchant site with affiliation tracking parameters and a unique Transaction ID for each click.
- The SDK in the merchant page will start and store the session, represented by the Transaction ID passed by ShopBack in the previous step.
- After the user makes a purchase, a separate SDK installed on the checkout page will post a conversion to ShopBack's server.
- ShopBack successfully captures the information sent by the SDK and creates a cashback for the customer with the “pending” status.
