As a publisher (website owner or mediabuyer) you are without a doubt very interested to see how your campaigns are performing. Often you can log in at your network to check your results in the reports tool, but did you know a lot of promoters make use of a third-party reporting tool like AdsBridge, Voluum or Hasoffers? Or maybe you've always wondered how you could benefit from using one of these platforms?
Advantages of a third-party tool
The most important reason why people use a third-party reporting tools is because it bundles campaign data from multiple networks into one system. This way you can easily manage all of your campaigns in one place, without having to log in to a lot of different platforms. But this is not the only advantage. For example, most third-party tools give you access to more powerful filters like IP-address, ISP or device filters. With these filters you will be able to monitor and optimize your campaigns to make them more profitable. Some platforms also give you the ability to do extensive A-B testing. This is a great feature for finding out which of your campaigns will give you better conversions. I recommend you to check out a third party tool like AdsBridge, Voluum or Hasoffers to find out exactly what advantages they offer for your specific setup.
Next I'll talk about what options you have for setting up third party tracking software with Traffic Company...
Using Postback with Traffic Company
Traffic Company has built in a support for use with tracking tools, by using a Postback URL (also known as a Callback URL or a S2S Postback). When you set up a Postback URL, Traffic Company will send a notification to the reporting tool of your choice on every successful conversion. This notification contains relevant data about this conversion like a unique ID, your promo info, reward etc., so you have all the data ready to find out exactly how effective your campaigns are.

The easiest and unique method for creating a Postback URL is by selecting one of the built-in third-party platforms. Traffic Company has recently partnered up with AdsBridge, which gave us the possibility to set up your Postback URL with just a few simple steps.
