Signature Reporting
Once an affiliate is enabled with LinkShare Signature, they will have access to two additional reports in the affiliate interface including:- The Member ID Click Report records all of the click-throughs generated from the affiliate's site to the merchant partner sites.
- The Member ID Field Report itemizes transactions made by each member, organization, or sub site.
How To Use The Member ID Field
LinkShare Signature tracks commerce to the transaction level of each individual member, organization, or sub site through the use of the Member ID field.
The MemberID field is denoted by a "&u1=" that Signature affiliates must append to the merchant link codes provided in their LinkShare account. The value following the "=" sign represents the specific member, organization, or sub site created by the Signature affiliate. The MemberID field can be up to 72 alphanumeric characters in length.
Signature Accounting
Affiliates participating in the Signature program are responsible for all accounting with respect to their members or organizations. Signature provides the affiliate with the reports to determine how to divide and distribute aggregate commissions among their members, organizations, or sub sites.
