How to Set Up Conversion Tracking with AdsBridge

Integrating MyBid with the AdsBridge tracker allows you to monitor your campaign performance in real time. Follow these steps to configure your Postback URL and align your tracking settings.

Step 1: Create a Conversion Goal in MyBid

Before configuring AdsBridge, you must generate a unique Goal ID within your MyBid dashboard.

  1. Log in to your MyBid advertiser account and navigate to the Goals tab.

  1. Click the + Create conversion goal button.

  1. The configuration form will appear, requiring the following details:

    • Name: Assign a clear and descriptive name that reflects the specific action (e.g., "Registration" or "Sale").
    • Conversion Type: Select the category that best matches the user's action.
    • Value Type: Define the payout for the conversion. This value is used to calculate your campaign's Revenue and ROI (Return on Investment). You can choose from:
      • No Value: No specific monetary amount will be attributed to the conversion.
      • Fixed: Assign a static amount for every conversion of this type.
      • Dynamic: The conversion value will be passed dynamically through your postback URL.
  2. Once configured, click Next.

  3. A Postback URL will be generated. Note the goal_id parameter in this URL.

  1. Click Copy & done to save your new goal and copy the postback URL for integration.

  2. You are now ready to implement the postback in your tracking software or third-party platform.

IMPORTANT

Every Conversion Goal is assigned a unique goal_id. This ID is required to correctly associate user actions with the specific goal in your dashboard. Your postback URL should follow this structure:

md
https://postback.mb-d.com/api/v1/postback?click_id={external_id}&goal_id=186&cost={cost}

Step 2: Add MyBid as a Traffic Source in AdsBridge

  1. Log in to your AdsBridge account.
  2. Navigate to the Traffic sources tab and click Create traffic source.

  1. In the search field, type MyBid, select it from the list, and click Submit.

  1. AdsBridge will automatically pre-populate the essential parameters.
  2. S2S Postback URL: Locate the word REPLACE in the URL field and substitute it with the goal_id you generated in Step 1.

Your finalized postback URL should resemble the following: https://postback.mb-d.com/api/v1/postback?click_id=<tracking_id>&cost=<payout>&goal_id=9999(Where 9999 is your specific goal_id)

NOTE

If you selected a Fixed Value in MyBid, replace the dynamic <payout> placeholder with your exact payout amount (e.g., &cost=1.50).

  1. Click Save to store the settings.

Step 3: Configure Affiliate Network Postback

To receive data from your affiliate network, you must add the AdsBridge postback URL to their panel. This ensures that when a conversion occurs, the affiliate network notifies AdsBridge, which then notifies MyBid.

For detailed instructions on adding networks and offers, refer to the AdsBridge documentation:

Step 4: Create a Campaign in AdsBridge

  1. Navigate to the Campaigns tab and click Create Campaign.

  1. Name your campaign and select MyBid as the Traffic Source.

  1. Complete the destination path settings and click Save.
  2. AdsBridge will generate a Campaign URL. Note this URL, as it will serve as your Ad URL in MyBid.

Step 5: Finalize Setup in MyBid

  1. Log in to your MyBid advertiser account.
  2. Create a new campaign or edit an existing one.
  3. Paste the Campaign URL provided by AdsBridge into the URL field of your MyBid campaign settings.

IMPORTANT

It is critical to use the exact Campaign URL provided by AdsBridge to ensure all tracking macros are passed correctly back to your tracker.
