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.
Once configured, click Next.
A Postback URL will be generated. Note the

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:
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 RedTrack

Step 3: Configure Affiliate Network and Offers
To receive conversion notifications, you must add the RedTrack Postback URL to your affiliate network's panel. This ensures that when a conversion occurs, RedTrack is notified and can subsequently fire the postback to MyBid.
For detailed instructions on adding networks and offers, refer to the RedTrack documentation:
Once you obtain your RedTrack Postback URL, paste it into your affiliate network panel to pass conversion data back to your tracker.
Step 4: Create a Campaign in RedTrack
- Navigate to the Campaigns tab and click New.
- Select MyBid as the Source and complete the required campaign fields.
- Click Save.
- RedTrack will generate a Campaign URL. You can find this next to your campaign name in the list or within the campaign settings.
Step 5: Finalize Setup in MyBid
- Log in to your MyBid advertiser account.
- Create a new campaign or edit an existing one.
- Paste the Campaign URL provided by RedTrack into the URL field of your MyBid campaign settings.

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