How to use the extension

When you’ve installed the extension simply click on the Adtraction extension and sign in to your Adtraction account.

When you are signed in and are visiting a website of a brand connected to the Adtraction platform, a green blinking light will appear on the Adtraction extension

Apply to brands

When you visiting a brands website where you don’t have any approved channel to that particular brand you can easily via the Chrome extension apply to the brand by simply clicking on the button Apply to brand.

Your application will then be handled by the brand, and you can read more about how brands manage their applications.

Create deep links

To create a deep link simply go to the product on the brand's website and open the Chrome extension, at “Link” you will now have your unique tracking link ready.

You can choose to use the tracking link as it is by just copying it. If you want a shorter version of the link click on “Shorten URL”.


You have the option to also add a Reference / EPI to the link. You can read more about EPI and how they work in this article.

Widget

To create a widget that can be displayed on your channel, when visiting a specific product on a brand's website you can via the Chrome extension create a widget for that product. You can modify the content on the widget by changing colors, text for the badge and the button and also choose the design you prefer.

To display the widget, you must be able to edit your channel's code directly. This usually means channels where you can insert HTML and/or JavaScript. The widget cannot be used on platforms that do not allow code embeds, such as standard social media profile pages.

Coupons & Offers

At the section Coupons & Offers you can find active campaigns and coupon codes that you are allowed to use when you promote the brand. Also if you have received any exclusive coupon code that will be shown here.

Promoting offers or coupons is often a good strategy because it tends to convert very well.

If you are using general promotion codes, you are only able to earn commission if your visitor or follower visits the brand’s website via your unique tracking link.
